Vacation

So this week is supposed to be our 'vacation' week . Ha! Jeffrey has a 'study break' which means he has a break from classes but mid term exams afterwards. So during the first weekend and part of the week he was busy studying and I was going to french school and working. Then we thought we'd go see King Kong since it's been ages since we last went to a movie... the only problem was we didn't know it was 3 hours! So when we tried to see it at 8:30 and she asked if it was alright by us to be done at Midnight? (Strange question for a movie ticket person to ask! haha) we thanked her and said no and left. (The theater is right across the road from us!) Oh well for that idea. We had some idea's to go skate along the canal, see some of the city we hadn't been able to yet (which is most of it), maybe try cross country skiing... then disaster strikes! Jeffrey gets sick on Thursday. Poor thing has a cold and bad sore throat, so we rest up that day and I think by the weekend he'll be doing better... well it's Saturday night and no luck there. Dan Amores was in town doing a workshop and I wanted to go to the dance tonight since we missed last nights. What a novelty to have a Saturday night dance option! But it was not to be. We did however manage to eat some delicious home made chicken soup (by yours truly) and watch some of Mr. Bean and Ice Age.
*sigh* You never know how selfish you are until you are in a relationship! But it's something that God reminds me of everyday when I say 'Awww, more dishes to do AGAIN?' So life is not always easy and fun up here, but we have each other and many blessings. Now to just focus on those rather than the petty little things and disappointments that can get under your skin! Those are the demons that would sabatoge our days. But through Christ we can do all things and we push on. Hopefully Jeffrey will be feeling better tomorrow. And at least last weekend we got to go visit with his aunt Bobbie and uncle Jacque and cousin Anne! Then hopefully next weekend with Jean's family.
Keep us in your prayers, because God knows we're not perfect and we need it!
