Laundry Party

Have you ever had a laundry party? Well we have and boy is it a lot of fun...laundry, food, and a good movie...and life is just great! So here are just a couple of pictures of us having fun at the laundry party!


Even my cat enjoyed it!


Yes life can be so much fun...although don't ask me what the movie was about...I think we were laughing too much!

How Short Life is...

The Bible says that man's life is as a flower of the field...one day is there and the next day its not. Do you ever go to work wondering if you will be coming home that night? Do you leave home saying good bye to those you love wondering whether or not you will see them again? This is the reality of the world we live in.
I am working on a cardiac medicine floor in the hospital here. I have thought about the brevity of life so much as I see people who one day were strong and healthy and the next day are in hospital wondering how long it will be before their heart gives out...I have seen people who were having a wonderful time with family and friends and half an hour later are in hospital due to a vehicle collision. This is the reality of life.
God calls us to live each day for His glory and honor. To live each day spreading the Word because we never know if this day is our last day. For those of us who know the Lord Jesus this time can be exciting...but for those who don't know Him it can be scary. Lets share the Word and live each day to its fullest of working in the Kingdom of God because you don't know when the Lord will call you or your neighbor home! Life is short....

Of Tons of Homework...and Frustrating Computers!

Yes I have been trying to study for the course that I am taking on the human heart. It is such an interesting course as it describes how the heart is so intricately made. I often wonder how people continue to say that humans evolve when they read the miracle of creation!
The final exam for this course is next week so that means I have to study much harder then I was studying before. I find it hard to study when I am working full time but I have to give it my all in order to pass this course.
My computer has been really frustrating of late as it loves to freeze. I have a dell notebook and I am pretty sure that next computer I get it won't be a dell...but I should not complain and be thankful for the computer I have.
But for now it is back to the books...

Thank you Lord for Family!


I am really enjoying being back here in Orangeville Ontario, Canada. I started this week working at Headwaters Health Care Center on a Cardiac/Medicine floor. I am really enjoying working there. The staff are awesome there making a great team to work with.

Tonight I went to watch my younger brother's hockey game tonight and was thankful that I was able to do that for him.

I had an interview this week at the Avalon Care Center for a casual position as an RN there. This is a nursing home that I had volunteered there for five years starting when I was fourteen. It was exciting to see people that I had not seen for some time. I feel like I have come home!

Other then that I have been enjoying the time spent with family and friends back home thanking the Lord for a social life that I have never had in Ottawa! I am so happy to be back home in Orangeville!
