Update to the Update

~It is official, I have Mono! BOOO! Not even entirely sure how I got it...Graham does not have it...I have not kissed anyone else recently...but the good news is that once I have had it...I become immune to it...no more Mono for me...but I am off for at least another week. Boo

~I need a new form of entertainment...due to the possibility that my enlarged spleen could rupture, I have done little more than lie on the couch and watch tv. sure sure, some of you are thinking "you are so lucky" I am not, trust me.

~Any ideas of what I can do? Anything at all?

~I am an usher at Graham's mom's wedding this weekend...that will be fun, and not too tasking on my spleen I hope.

~I was rude to a JW today...I slammed the door in their face...oops...actually, they asked me if I had heard the "good news" and I said "yes I have" and closed the door...was that rude?

~I am very sleepy

~My voice is almost all gone now...boo...I liked my voice...

~I am going back to lie down now.

Update

~I am not dead...well...not quite...I might have Mono...but that is another story

~Due to this supposed illness...I have been off of work for an extra week...which has me a little on edge...

~We are going to the cottage for the long weekend, this should help me relax a little so that I might be able to go back to work next week...fingers crossed.

~Graham is home YAY!!!

~Me and Ames took the train out to Moncton a few weeks ago for Graham's grad, which took us 25 hours! Which was the longest trip of my life, but we made it and we had a lot of fun.

~When I get my scanner working again, I will put up a few of the highlights in pictures.

~Graham has graduated from Atlantic Baptist University with his BA in History...and he got it with distinction

~I witnessed the death of this lap top...Lappy met his maker in a blaze of glory

~I got on an airplane

~I need to go to bed...the problem with mono is that is makes you sleepy...and makes your spleen a potential explosive situation...no tackle british bull dog for me.

Watch The Lamb...

Walking on the road to Jerusalem,
The time had come to sacrifice again,
My two small sons,
They walk beside me on the road,
The reason that they came
was to watch the lamb.
Daddy, daddy,
What will see there,
There's so much that we don't understand,
So I told them of Moses
and father Abraham,
Then I said dear children watch the lamb,

There will be so many in Jerusalem today,
We must be sure the lamb doesn't run away,
And I told them of Moses
and father Abraham,
Then I said dear children watch the lamb.

When we reached the city,
I knew something must be wrong,
There were no joyful worshipers,
No joyful worship songs,
I stood there with my children
in the midst of angry men,
Then I heard the crowd cry out

Crucify Him.

We tried to leave the city
but we could not get away,
Forced to play in this drama
a part I did not wish to play,
Why upon this day
were men condemned to die,
Why were we standing here,
Where soon they would pass by.

I looked and said, even now they come,
The first one cried for mercy,
The people gave him none,
The second one was violent,
He was arrogant and loud,
I still here his angry voice
screaming at the crowd,
Then someone said there's Jesus,
I scarce believed my eyes,
A man so badly beaten,
He barely looked alive,
Blood poured from His body,
From the forms upon His brow,
Running down the cross,
Falling to the ground.

I watched Him as He struggled,
I watched Him as He fell,
The cross came down upon His back,
The crowd began to yell,
In that moment I felt such agony,
In that moment I felt such loss,
Till a Roman soldier grabbed my arm
and screamed,

you, carry His cross.

At first I tried to resist him,
Then his hand reached for his cross,
So I knelt and took
the cross from the Lord,
I placed it on my shoulder,
And started down the street,
The blood that he'd been shedding
was running down my cheek.

They led us to Golgotha,
They drove nails
deep in His feet and hands,
Yet upon the cross I heard Him pray

Father, forgive them.

Oh, never have I seen such love
in any other eyes,

Into thy hands I commit my spirit
He prayed and the He died,

I stood for what seemed like years,
I'd lost all sense of time
until I felt to tiny hands
holding tight to mine,
The children stood there weeping,
I heard the oldest say,

Father please forgive us,
the lamb ran away.

Daddy, daddy,
What have we seen here,
There's so much
that we don't understand,
So I took them in my arms,
And we turned and faced the cross,
Then I said dear children

watch the lamb.

Jenelle is now on MySpace.com

Update

~I got a wedding invite in the mail today...it threw me off just a little because I did not recognize the return address at all...but then I realized that it was Heidi, as in Colin and Heidi. So I was very excited about that.

~I went to Amy's this weekend, it was a lot of fun, we made t-shirts and baked pies and watched movies...it was great fun, just like the good old days, including a violent attack during the night.

~I went to work on Monday and Tuesday, but Wednesday morning I got terribly sick, so I have been sleeping it off the last two days...hopefully I will be better tomorrow because I need to sing at church and then on Saturday my Alicia is coming to hang out with me.

~Just over 2 weeks until I see my baby

~I am currently listening to old school No Doubt...as in Tradgic Kingdom...sad sad sad.

~I feel the need to have a shower right now, so I think I will go do that...yes, good plan.

~Happy Easter to all, may Christ shine upon you now and always

Someone is getting older....

HIM!!!

Happy Birthday Graham! I love you!!!

That line just kills me

So, I have been thinking of things to make me laugh lately because I am a little down, not sure why...it might be because the weather is changing, or maybe because there is still 3 weeks roughly until Moncton...but then I thought, the sure fire way to make me laugh is to hear some random funny lines on tv, in person or the like...here are some recent ones (like in the last day or so)

We will be flirting with 70 tomorrow folks
Thats why I like it
You don't know what you are talking about
I missed her birthday for nothing?
I could really have a fungal eye disease, sweet deal!
Who gets married?
If you get married, I will lose my freak
Hey, it doesn't fit the front...thats okay, I will go around the side
So what if I don't fit in, I am going to be something
I really don't know who those people are
How long do I have to wait
Has anyone heard from Beth or is she dead?
You are so random
How often will they be in the same bed?

That is all for now, I realize that most of my readers are like "What the hell is she taking about? Those are not funny at all." Well...the context is missing, but let me tell you, I am laughing my butt off right now...which is a nice change of pace for me.

Oh Goodie...

Prince Harry, the third in line to the British throne, celebrated the end of his military training with a visit to a lap dancing club, British newspapers reported Saturday

Feeling....blah

I'm a little anti-encouragement lately.

I'm a little "you don't know me" lately.

I know - it's stand-offish.

But that doesn't bother me yet

Not sure what to tell you, this is just who I am right now

Ranting and Raving

Okay, so today is my day to just complain about everything...yes, I know it is a self appointed day, but I have been sick, so humour me.

1. Why the heck is it snowing outside right now? Does that seem fair to anyone? I mean, I for one like snow IN FEBRUARY!!!! Not so much in April, when I am looking towards to the beach/camp season...which reminds me...anyone up for going to Kick Off this year?

2. Why is it that when you call a repair man they always tell you that they will be at your house sometime between 10am and 6pm...apparently my heater is broken, so I can't have a life...stop everything, the fix it man doesn't know when he can make it...then when he shows up, he stares at you...which is a bit unnerving, and then tells you that there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I suppose that is why it KEEPS RESETTING ITSELF TO 10 DEGREES...because it is fine...what I am thinking...I know nothing about fixing a furnace.

3. When someone asks you if they can replace the decorations on your door at work and you say yes, that would be fine...is that really code for change the whole classroom around without telling the teacher while she is at home puking her guts out? Apparently

4. Why are people at church so lukewarm now a days...I mean, if I sign up for a committee...I show up 99 % of the time...why won't other people take that same consideration? People are counting on us to put on a good preformation at the concert, but my band is a no show

5. Why can I not for the life of me remember important memories from the past few years? Honestly...gingerbread cookies at Timmy's illudes my memory to this day.

6. Why are some girls cheating lowdown skanks? And why doe they think they can get away with hurting super great guys but then still expect that his family members will except her with open arms?

7. People should have to take a test before they are allowed to reproduce...if you don't really, I mean REALLY want a child, then for goodness sakes, don't have one...you CANNOT legally send them back afterwards...and really...it is not fair to the father if you dump them on him either.

8. Why do American Idols always murder my favourite songs? Do they have no pride?

9. I have decided that I do not like who I become when I am writing these rants...I can be mean and vicious...it is not a pretty side of me what so ever...but hey, I am hot like bacon right?

10. Speaking of bacon, I got to thinking about that...does that mean that I am a) hot like "oh baby, you are looking fine this evening" or b) you are a fat greasy looking pig product but I bet you taste yummy?

11. I am still undecided on this new government we have going on right now...am I supposed to take Mr.Harper seriously or do I laugh in his face when he opens his mouth? Do I really trust a "man" who is currently trying to snuggle into bed with W? Not sure, the jury is out.

12...I am ranted out.

Another added to the list

Congrats goes out to a good old friend from camp DARA LAMBIE on her recent engagment to Choo Yeung! They got engaged on Saturday...in what I am told a very romantic proposal.

I made it!

I finally made it to 200 posts on my blog!!! It has only taken me 3 years to do it! Go me!

Update and Future Plans

~So, I currently have the flu, which really sucks because I was supposed to hang out with Ames this weekend and do the whole girly weekend thing...not going to happen...I was hoping that if I felt better by tonight, we could...but my energy is shot.

~My world is getting smaller by the minute...on my hi5 site, I was put in touch with a whole bunch of people from my childhood...which floods me full of old tortured memories, but I am working through them...that is a must.

~Last night, some kid at the concert (which I popped over for a second because my dad was not answering his cell), this kid is like 4...by 4 I really mean 14 years old...he told me that I was "so hot, hot like bacon" I couldn't help but laugh at this

~I am now totally addicted to the game SIMS...I cannot get enough of it.

~They just split my classroom at work...the 3.8-5 year olds have moved over to the other room now, which means that my babies are gone...(all the children that have been with me since the beginning of my employment there) but I am still left with 20 children...how does that work out? Alicia...you know what that means...third staff required

~Don't forget to change your clock tonight, spring forward an hour and risk being early for everything...or is it late? I never know. I think it is early

~In 29 days, Amy and me are getting on a train and headed to Moncton to see Graham (YAY) and to become tourist (even though we won't have a car)

~Graham is going to be graduating on May 6th from ABU, He has really worked his butt of these past few years, and I could not be more proud or love him more. Congrats Graham! I love you

~After Moncton, I am going to spend a week with him in Cambridge.

~Then back to work for the summer

~Lots of wedding are fast approaching: Mel and Gerry, Colin and Heidi, Elise and Scott, Judy and Steve, Marlene and Paul, Rita and Steven, Ted and Megan, and others

~That is all I got

Answer to Prayer

Some of you may have heard about my cousin Ryan who lives in California...for those who don't know, he is 10 years old and has had leukemia since he was 4. Anyways, things were looking really bad and it was done to a bone marrow transplant, or he will die. They have been searching for a transplant for over a year now, with no luck, all of the family failed...except for me because I was not allowed to donate...stupid parasite...Finally after an exhauting search, a match was found. (With bone marrow, there is 8 crititeria that needs to be met, a match consists of only 6) This match for Ryan is a perfect 8! Which is totally amazing because this person is not family. God is so awesome! I ask for continued prayer however, because he still needs to undergo the surgery and avoid infection...and will be in the hospital for 5 months. But the fun news is that Jay Leno is putting on a benefit for him.
