i figured you ought to know

There are quite a few things that have happened since my last update. Here we go.

1. I have a real job that actually pertains to my degree in Linguistics! I'm a Child Development Facilitator at the Cause and Effect Foundation. It's an early intervention organization. I work with preschool aged kids to help them get at a level to start attending school and successfully integrate into society. I am loving it so far. Benefits might add to that love just a little haha.

2. Burns was accepted into Engineering at UofC!!! I am one proud gf.

3. I get to move into my new Charleswood house in a week! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!

4. I went to Original Joe's with Lita on Thursday night. Good times, girl!

5. Kobe is still adorable in case you were wondering.

6. I tried on Denise's wedding dress a couple months ago. I couldn't bend my arm but at least I could button the waist. My back, however, was a different story.

7. Burns is fun. This isn't news to me, but in case you were wondering why I love him so much, this is only part of the reason:

8. September had BEAUTIFUL weather. I loved it so much.

Kobe and I hung out a lot outside.

9. Speaking of Kobe, on Wednesday as I was driving from work to pick up Burns from school, I got a phone call. I didn't answer it because I was driving, but they left a message. I turned the message on speakerphone so I could drive without putting my phone up to my ear. The lady's message said that she had found Kobe out on 53rd and she would keep him at such and such address until I came to pick him up.

I phoned Burns right away to tell him what had happened, picked him up, and we drove to the house. Kobe was so happy to see us and I am sooo thankful for people who look out for each other's pets. I would have been devastated if anything had happened to him. When we got back to Burns' house, Denise was crying and she came out to tell us that she couldn't find Kobe anywhere! We showed her Kobe and she started bawling with relief. I'm so glad I didn't know he was missing until someone had already found him because I would have been really stressed out.

10. Some time a couple weeks ago Burns and I decided to go on a bike ride to Nose Hill Park...at night. It was awesome.

We brought Kobe in a backpack.

It was so fun and the weather was perfect. I'm extremely happy Burns and I got to spend at least a little bit of time doing summery things together this year while the weather was still nice.

11. I went to Nitty's birthday party on September 22. I can't believe she's 3 now! Alex held an Art Party and it was so cute/awesome. Burns was sick so he didn't come.

Nitty and Naves light up my life like no others.

12.

Enough said.

13. Burns is really getting heck from his family about how long his hair is.

So please, if you like it, don't hesitate to tell him! I think he looks great. If you don't like it, then don't say anything.

14. Sarah Gilchrist invited a bunch of their friends to Chill Billiards for a surprise bday party for Pat on Monday. It was fun and very chill indeed. Arianne and Daryn were invited too.

15. It's Thanksgiving weekend!!! I can't wait to go home, stuff my face, and have fun with family!
