update from the mac
[info]daniellefoulds
It's been a while and I thought I would come in for a quick update. When me and Bryan got back from Vegas Cici was really excited to see mom. The night we came back home we showed her all the pictures and stuff. The next day we went to Bryans grammas place in Vancouver for dinner and showed the rest of his family the pictures. Sense we've been back I have just been learning how to use my mac. There are little things that I dont like about it, but in total I would never go back to useing jaws again. The keyboard comands are just so much more....normal and make way more sense to me. I love itunes on here, when I tryed it in windows I wanted to kill myself, but here it's like amazing. There are a few things with sinking the iphone that drive me nuts, but you can only do so much.

I called apple today to report a issue that I was having with voice over and ebay. When ever I tryed to load it up safari would crash. They didn't really have a answer to my problem, but whatever. Ebay is a pritty busy sight......so we'll see what ends up happening with that.

My website should be up and running by this weekand. I'm excited to get it back and running again. Anyways though I dont really have much ellse to write about. I'm happy to have a lj cliant on here though.

Update from Vegas
[info]daniellefoulds

I was able to find Internet here, but not till the last day. I will back track to Sunday, the day we arived and go from there.

Dale and Bruce picked us up and we headed to the airport. Multiple tweets and fb updates followed. We were there so early that the gate to get our boarding passes wasnt even opened yet. We decided to have a piece of flying wedge pizza to kill the time. When we were done the gates were opened and Dale and bruce left.

Soon after that we went through security. Cici set it off with her harness but it all went well. After we made it through we had to wait to get on the plane. It was a long wait and I amused myself liastening to music.

When we got on the plane the dog just layed down and stayed that way through the flight. We listened to red dragon.

Wearived at Vegas around 10. We left the airport on a shudle to our hotel. I think Cici was happy to be back on the groun.

When we got to our hotel we were both hungry. We found a place to eat and settled down for a late dinner. I had pasta and Bryan had a breakfist bereato. It was expensive and not that good.

After dinner we dropped cici off at the hotel and walked around for a bit. We stopped at a gift shop and picked up a gift for Colleen and 2 coolers. We took them back to our room, and after takeing the dog out called it a night.

The next day was a busy one. We woke up around 8 and had a shower. Then we headedto a buffet in our hotel for breakfist. It was okay but again over priced. We went on the coaster at newyork new York and then went to see our first show.

The show was called defennding the cave man and it was right in our hotel. It was prity funny. It compaired men and women to those from cave times. The show let out around 4 so we headed back to our room to feed cici.

When that was done we decided to go on the tram. It was free and we needed to take it to get to our next show later that night.

First we went to the Luxor. That hotel is done up like a huge pyramid. There were lots of statues and things. Unfortionitly we wernt aloud to take pictures inside. That was the only hotel with that rule.

From there we went to Mandilay Bay. That was where our second show of the day was. When we went to get our tickets we found out they were never ordered. I was pissed for a bit because we didn't get to see the lion king.

Then we walked around for a bit and I felt better. We had these epic sandwitches at the hotel the show was at and then started walking outside.

We went to the coke store and had our picture aken with the coe bare. We also had this realy neat coke around the world thing. For 7 bucks you get 16 differing kinds of coke products from around the world. They came in prity big cups. After drinking them with bryan I fel bloated.

When we finished paying for the few things we naught there we walked all the way to Sezors Palace. All the shops were closed at that time of night. Figuring everything ellse would be the same we began our long walk back to our hotel. When we got there we went to bed.

The next day we went to the Venitian where phantom was playing. Most of the day was spent checking out all the shops there. Phantom was amazing. They changed some of the singers sence the last time I saw it though.

On the way out from the hotel we ran in to another guide dog. We talked for a hour and cici made a new friend. Then we headed back inside. I was finally able to try that panda express chinese food place. It was prity good.

After that we walked around fora bit and then headed backto our hotel.

The next day we went to fremont street. It turned out to be a bit of a drag cuz most of the stores were closed. We ended up getting lunch at this nice place though.

After feeding cici around 5 we left her in the hotel. The maniger of the show we were swing that night had asked if we would. So after saying bye to the puppers we were on our way.

On the way to the show Bryan baught me some new runners. My feet had been killing me with all the walking so he baught me a pair of sketchers shape ups. They are amazing.

The show had tigers in it so that's why cici couldn't come. It was a pritty neat show. After the show we had dinner and then headed back to the hotel.

Yesterday we slept in realy late. When we left we did some more browsing through shops. The dinner show was good.

Anyways I am off to the airport so that's the end of this entry.

I never actualey thought I would use this thing
[info]daniellefoulds

But here I am at mom and dads again updating from the iPhone. Who knows, mabey this app will get me updating again. I must say that being able to update whenever and wherever is pritty nifty.

Dad picked me up today around 10 30. We went back to the passport place and got everything sorted. My passport will be ready for me to pick up on the 24th. It was funny to see how different people acted towards me with out cici.

Yesterday I took her with me and was escorted to the elovator and didn't have to take a numver. Today the body of cicis harness was in the back of bryans car so she had to stay home. This time there was no escort and we had to wait in a huge line.

When we got back to maple ridge we stopped to pick up timmies and then picked up cici. Dad closed the van door on her tail and she yelped, I almost died. I felt sooo bad. She was all wags a min later though.

We got all the stuff from the travil agent today. We just have to print out our e tickets for the plain and a voucher that we need to exchange for 2 different sets of show tickets. For the other shows I just need to show I'd.

Me and mom put a list together of a bunch of free things to see when we are there. We also put a bunch of rides and stuff. By the time we were done it was 5 pages.

Anyways though that's about. It's hard to explane but I find writeing on here to feel more like writeing in a normal journal. I mean as if I were writeing it out with a pen. Iguess it's because of how long it takes me to type.

Another update from the parents place
[info]daniellefoulds

So when we went to get my passport they said that I needed a birth certifacate. Appairintly this was cuz my last one was done when I was 15. We drove all the way home and looked in both houses but no luck.

So after freeking out for a bit I called this place that will ship a new one out to me. 60 bucks later and now it's on it's way. It should be here on Monday or friday.

The travil agent called and it is gonna cost us 150 or 200 for all of our show tickets. I am looking foward to it. Anyways I don't have anything ellse to write about. I will update later.

update time
[info]daniellefoulds
I did a brief update from my iphone the other day when I was at mom and dads. We found out that me and Bryan are going to Vegas on the 24th and comeing back on the 29th. I'm really excited. The voucher that my parents gave us paid for the trip and pritty much all of our tickets. It is only costing us 60 bucks or something like that for all the shows we're going to see, the flight, and the hotell. I think Bryans excited to go also.

When mom gets here today I'm off to Surry to drop off my passport renewal application. It sucks that it's all the way out there, but what can you do about it. I dont think we're going to Bryans parents for dinner tonight, or rather, I'm not going. By the time he gets back from work and stuff it would be to late, so he's just going to go. *sniff* that means I have to eat dinner with my parents, whitch is okay to.

Mom just called and said she was in the process of wakeing up. Once she goes pee she's on her way here hahaha. I've been up for a while and have already checked my farm on country story. I would guess after I go to hand in my passport papers I am going to head back to there place and hang out there till they leave for work. I dont really have much ellse to write about though, so I guess on that note I'm outa here.

Update from mom and dads placer
[info]daniellefoulds

I am just sitting here on the couch. Not much has been new with me. I looked on craiggslist for work again but couldn't find anything. Other then that it has been the same old things. I am watching csi. I guess on that note thougg I am out of here.

there we go
[info]daniellefoulds
looks like the problem fixed itself. I'm back on the pc writing a update now. my thumbs are sore from typeing on the iphone haha. I wish there was a way to set your mood. I was searching the app store to see if I could find any other apps, but I cant find any, and I dont want to have to pay for one haha. Anyways I guess on that note I'm gonna get off of here. This is the most you've seen of me in a while haha. Hope everyone had a good holiday and will have a good newyears tomorrow.

[info]daniellefoulds

I saw jessie useing this app and thought I would try it. I havnt been up to much as of late. Mom and came home a few days ago, it was nice to see them after so long. We all wentb out to the keg lastnight for dinner and then watched a few movies. Today I think dad is comeing over to help set up the BBQ.

We are going to have a few friends over tomorrow for burgers and drinks. I find it hard to believe that soon it will be 2010. The last year has gone fast.

Anyways I don't have much ellse to say. I hope everyone has a good time tomorrow if you are doing something. I will leave you with the funny fact that cici just woke herself up snoring.

merry Christmas
[info]daniellefoulds
I know I havn't wrote in here for a while again, but things have been pritty busy. I had my gift exchange with my friends, and the huge family dinner on the 19th. Both were really nice :) and everyone enjoyed them. I exchanged gifts with my gramma and parents and nanny on the 19th, because no one was really in the mood of Christmas this year. My parents took off to Vagus, and my nanny understandabley so is feeling pritty low cuz her son is still missing. Gramma had a bunch of tests done yesterday before her hip surgery, so she was feeling under the weather. To make a long story short, not many people in my family are in the christmas spirit this year.

I'm off to my brothers today for a dinner with him and the kids. I'm actualey kinda looking forward to it. I was a bit worried that I would be doing nothing on christmas eve, but it turns out I'll be doing something after all. Tomorrow I'm off to Bryans parents place for the day to exchange gifts and eat a bunch of food. Both will be amazing. Before I do that though in the morning me and Bryan exchange our gifts.

I dont really have much ellse to say. I made some cookies to take over to Ryans so I need to go and put them on a plate or something to take them over on. I probabley wont update this thing again for a while, that just seems to be the way it's going. I hope everyone has a happy holiday and a good upcomeing year, although I'm sure I'll update SOMETIME.

it's been way to long.....again
[info]daniellefoulds
Well, we've pritty much moved in to the new place. Asides from a few things that are at the basment at my parents place, a kitchen table, and a bed for the guest room, (both are located at Bryans parents place) we're done. The past few days have just been spent unpacking and cleaning. We got the internet cable and phone hooked up yesterday through shaw. The fridge stove and dishwasher were also delivered yesterday. Also, haha yesterday was a busy day, we got a quote on insolating the attic. It seemed a bit high being 700 for the lowest grade of insolation and 800 for the other. We're going to shop around for a bit before we decide on a place.

I did a majour grocerie shop yesterday while Bryan was at work. All the dinner options are endliss haha. Lastnight we had crap dinner, chickin cutlits and fudgicles to finish it off. We watched Flash Forward, and the new south park eppisode from Wednesday. When we were done with that, we were about to head to bed when I realized the cat had pissed on my bed. I had to take all the bedding off (that I just put on the day before) and wash it all. I was furious.

2 hours later when that was finished, we headed to bed. This morning I woke up at 7 to the freeking cat meowing her head off infront of the bedroom door. Bryan shut her up, and I guess he ended up getting up at that point. I fell back asleep till prob 9 or so. I got up in time to say bye to Bryan before he left for work. Before he left he told me that Muffin had used the litter box. Lets hope she keeps it up. I took the puppers out and did the norm on that end and then relaxed online for a while.

I was trying to find a few tracks for this xmas event I'm doing at the act. appairintley the band needs them so they can learn to play them....I'm not to impressed. Anyways I searched online until late yesterday and some more this morning. Before going to bed lastnight I e mailed rob and told him I was having a hard time finding backing tracks. This morning I got a e mail back where he informed me they just had to be a mp3 of the song. So then I was on the hunt for Martina McBride – Independence Day and was having a real hard time finding that. Who knew it would be so hard to find one friggin song on the net. This is where I wish I still had aries. Really though for the amount of time I use it it's just not worth it imo.

Anyways I also have to find Silent Night. Then he was like, oh what key do you sing them in? I dont have a friggin clue...I just sing them. All I can say is, I hope there is a rehursal with this band before we are expected to sing this stuff. I putzed around the house some more, opening the blinds and doing a bit of laundry. Now I'm just waiting for Brandon to come over. His mom hasn't seen the place yet, so she's gonna drop him off. I am not to sure what the plan is when he gets here, but I'm sure we'll think of something. Later on tonight we're off to Bryans parents for a b-day party for Jeff and grandpa. Anyways though thats about all I have to say. I'll update some time soon mabey.

update
[info]daniellefoulds
Seeing as it's been forever, I figured I would come in here and do a update. I dont really have anything to write about. Me and Bryan got the townhouse. We have a appointment at the bank tomorrow to finish up with that. On the 30th we meet up with the loyer for conviancing, and then we take posetion either then, or the 31st. I'm excited to have a place of our own. It will be nice to get out of the environment around here. Everyone is so depressed all the time.

My birthday was on Sunday. It was nice to see everyone. We went out to pasta polos for dinner, and as usual it was epic. I got a amazing pair of slippers from Dale. I've been living in them for the past few days. Bryan got me a really nice sweater. It was one I saw back in the summer on the ferry somewhere. Colleen got me a dragon, some home made cookies, and some breast cancer pins. My parents got us the appliances we need for the new place, as well as a shower kertin with hooks, and some shelve things. Gram ma pitched in with the dishwasher, and got me a gift card for sears. Brandon got me a gift card for the movies, and my uncle got me another gift card for Sears. It was a gritty nice day.

I had a job interview on Monday. It went well, and I am hoping to here back from them either this week or some time next week. I just want to get toataley off of disability. I cant stand it. I have someone looking in to what will happen to it if the government finds out me and Bryan are living together. I still haven't heard back from him though. I sent a e mail last Friday explaining the situation. I guess from now till when I here from him it will be a waiting game.

Anyways I dont have much else to say. I hope everyone is doing good, and I'll update some time again....probably not for a while, as always. I want to keep updating this thing, but there really hasn't been a lot going on. Well, actually there has....but I just cant be bothered to write about it.

it's amazing

I need to mark this down for later reference

I GOT RTED ON TWITTER

I am done

that is all

update
[info]daniellefoulds
It's been a while sense I last updated, again, so I figured I would come in here and let everyone know how things are going. Last weekend was pretty nice. Me and Bryan and his family went to Main Island on Saturday to see his grand parents. We went out for lunch at this restaurant place, went to a fall fair thing, and just visited. I took Cici with me (I've been taking her to lots of places lately) and she did really good. It was a long day though. The night before, Friday, we went to see the Time Travelers Wife, and didn't get back to Bryan's parents place till 2 or so. We spent the night there so we wouldn't have to get up so early when it came time to catch the ferry. Regardless though we had to get up at like 6 to make it in time. The day went well though despite the lack of sleep and before we knew it we were back on the main land.

When we got back we were both pretty tired, so we came back here after saying thank you and bye to Bryan's parents. I think it was around 10 30 or so that night when we went to bed. We didn't get much sleep the night before, as I said. The following day, Sunday we went to Coquitlem Center and just browsed around. Then we went to Marble Slab and got some ice cream. The rest of the day was just spent taking it easy.

Today I read a couple Stephen King books and just relaxed. I drove out to Surrey with Bryan so he could pick up some work equipment, and we stopped at Marble Slab again haha. We got home a little while ago. We also stopped at wall mart and picked up a Britta thing and a screen for the tap on the kitchen sink. On the way home we stopped at Star bucks and picked up a tea, a awake tea latay and a french vanilla latay for mom. When we got home we set up the Britta thing, and I'm just relaxing now.

I don't think I'll be up to much for the rest of the night. maybe I'll read another Stephen King book. I don't really feel like playing my game at the moment, because I'm at a point where I need to do some leveling, and I'm just to lazy to bother. Anyways though, thats about it for this update. Oh, I forgot to mention that on Sunday we went to visit gram ma. She's leaving for Montreal on Wednesday for her trip. She's gonna be gone for almost a month *sniff* oh well though, I hope she has a good time.

Update
[info]daniellefoulds
Well I just thought I would come in and do another update. It's been a while, again, but what else is new. Me and Bryan went to Pendar Island for the weekend on vacation. It was nice just to get away for a while. I took the puppers with me, and she was really good through out the entire trip. We didn't get the opportunitie to do much guide work, but what can you do? The island didn't have any sidewalks and most of the time it was quite crowded with tourists and people, so we just walked around a lot on leash, with her harnis on of course.

I didn't end up buying anything for anyone except for Cici. We were walking through a drugstore type thing and she nosed this dog toy right off the shelf on to the floor. It was so friggin adorable that I just had to get it for her. She loves that thing, last night, she even took it to bed with her! I cant believe how much she loves it....it's really quite funny. We got a opportunity for her to run around on the Island at a school ground field, so I threw her toy around and let her be a dog for a while. She went nuts, and rolled around on her back on the grass. It was so friggin adorable! There is a video up on facebook I think.

It was pretty late when we got home on Sunday. I think it was like 12 or so. I was pretty tired, so after saying hi to mom I went to bed pretty much right away. It was so amazing to sleep in my own bed after sleeping in the craptacular beds in the B&b that I fell asleep pretty much right away. I must have needed the sleep because it wasn't until like 10 Monday morning when I woke up. It was a good thing we came home on Sunday because it was pretty gross outside, it was raining like mad!

So when I woke up yesterday I took the puppers out to do her thing, and then just messed around on the computer. Mom came downstairs and we just relaxed and drank a cup of coffee. I had a shower and washed my hair, and then started to play Aveyond. The build that I'm playing is really complicated, and they don t really have a good walk through out for it. I've started to look for build A, but seeing as it was one of the first versions released, I think it's gonna be a bit difficult to find.

For dinner we ordered chinese food, and then me and dad went for a drive to DQ. It had been a while sense I'd been there and I wasn't really sure what to get. I eventually decided on a banana split, and when we got home I ate that. Then I watched interventions and obsessed until around 12 or so. The episodes were okay, but I just really wasn't in to it tonight for some reason. I think it has to do with the rain outside and stuff.

After that I called Brandon and we talked on the phone for a while. We went on about coladge and life and crap, and it's left me quite emo haha. I just don t really know what I'm going to do for school, still, and the odds of me getting a job are just so blah. It's really depressing so I try not to think on it to much. It just seems whenever I have something I get excited about, people turn the idea down. I remember when I was going to apply for the course as a drug and alcohol councilor, and Triumph told me outright to my face that I didn't have enough life expieriance. I mean how the hell are you supoast to gain the expieriance if they wont let you take the friggin course. Then theres the coordinators who are just to plain out lazy to adapt the friggin course. It's just so friggin frustrating I don t even know where to begin. If I want to have a family eventually, I want to make something of myself first....but at this rate I doubt it's gonna happen.

Anyways after I got off the phone with Brandon I searched blind coladges on line...loll for whatever reason. Of course the only one they had that I could find was in the UK. God knows if I were to take a course there if it would even be valid here in B.C. I just don t really know anymore. I try not to think about it, but then it just feels like I'm avoiding reality and putting it off. It's not something that should be put off....it drives me nuts.. Anyways though I think on that note I'm gonna finish this update. I'm gonna go read a Stephen King book I think. Sorry for the emoness.

Update time
[info]daniellefoulds
I just thought I would come in here and do a quick update. I've switched back to xp and am in the process of putting everything back on to my computer. I have to say, the thing that takes the longest to transfer is the music folder. Oh well I find xp starts up way quicker then windows 7. I need to install qwitter from there website because when I tried to install it from my drive it kept giving me a error message. Hopefully I can get it working. I think Brandon and Coty might be coming over later today, but I'm not sure. If they do we're gonna order chinese food. Tomorrow me and Bryan leave for our little weekend vacation. I am looking forward to it, I'm sure it'll be nice. Anyways I just wanted to post a quick update on my computer situation. Now I'm curious to see if the spell checker will work with this on windows xp.

just letting everyone know
[info]daniellefoulds
that I am switching from windows 7 back to xp. Jaws was running really bad on windows 7 and I just couldn't take it anymore. Currintley Bryan is waiting for nero to download so he can burn the crack on to a cd. I didn't so much mind windows 7, just more so the problems that jaws was having. It wasn't working with word pad, or note pad at all. I read a lot of my books in those, so that was a problem. When useing msn it wouldn't read the main catigories in my contact list. Also when in a chat window it would just read what people said to me as "blank" and when I would backspace a mispelled letter in a word it would just read blank . It's also doing that in the simagic lj cliant, as I am typeing this. When I try to use the spell checker it doesn't read anything either. Thats why my spelling was so craptacular in my last entry, because I wouldn't here anything when I went to backspace a word and attempt to fix it. Anyways I should have xp again on my computer real soon (thank god) I'm really glad I baught the tiney portable drive a few days ago, with Brandons help. I would have like cryed a bunch if I didn't have it at this point. I wouldn't have been able to handle not backing up my stuff. Anyways though thats really all I had to say. I guess I'll update again when I have xp back up and running on this thing. Gawd the reformat process is going to take FOREVER!
