Starting the school year off right

School started for me on September 10th this year. I was so looking forward to it because I had gone shopping with Cindy when she was down on the long weekend and I found a pair of pants for 14.50. What a great deal. So I thought I was ready to go. I had an 8:00am class which because I already new what I was wearing, didn't seem so daunting. I was actually looking forward to getting up and going to school. So the day came, I didn't even hit the snooze, and I was ready to go about 5 minutes before my actual deadline time. Then it crashed! Before my day really even got started, my car failed me. I got in, turned the key and got nothing back. What a disappointment. I tried again but it was in vain because I got the same response. So I went back in the house and luckily for me dad was up and I had him give me a ride into school.

By noon I had the diagnosis of what was wrong with my car. It needed a transplant - a heart transplant I call it. The battery was no long providing the juice needed to supply the body with motion....so now my car has a new heart and is running just fine!

Nova Scotia - First Half!!

I took 450 pictures in 12 days while I was visiting Heidi and Joel in Eastern Passage. I'm NOT going to share all 450 pics with you because 3 were actually videos and I don't want to sit in this chair typing out what they are and where they are. Some you would most definitely find boring, as I took 109 pictures at Peggy's Cove. The waves were coming in splashing on the rocks and it is just so hard to get a good splash one so I had to keep trying.


This is Lawrencetown Beach. We went there Monday night after I got in. It was high tide because there was very little sand to walk on. It was beautiful.






I wasn't paying attention and a big wave came and got my pants wet! He he he.




Heidi and Joel enjoying the ocean...




Heidi and I took Princess down to fisherman's cove to walk the board walk.



We went back to the beach on the hot day...but it was cool at the beach so I didn't swim. Princess had a lot of fun fetching her ball and jumping through the waves.

We also went to Peggy's Cove, Mahone Bay, and Lunenburg (where the Bluenose resides). We saw Fort Anne and Port Royal which was the first settlement. I"ll have to post those pics next time!
