The new adventures of Calamity Caitlin

Last week I was cooking, and burnt my hand. It was pretty neat, it looked almost like a torch. There was no school Monday, so I took Coco to Maplewood Farms, which is a place where you can go to pet goats and rabbits, and see horses and chickens and sheep. I did not like it that much, as they used gravel and pressure treated wood for the paddock that the Belgians were in. Also we could not pet the horses, as there wa a double fence. The other night, when I was coming back from my run, I saw a glint of white, so I stopped, and wouldn't you know it, there was a skunk about five feet from me. I just stood there, and waited for it to make a move, then went the other way. God knew what he was doing when he put a stripe on them, if He hadn't I would have been sprayed.


The picture of the red building, is a sheep looking around it, and Coco and I both thought it was creepy.

More Olympics

Last night, katelin Simerson and I went to an Olympics medal ceremony. We got to see Maelle Ricker get her gold medal. There was also a Paul Brandt concert (which was the real reason I went) it was an amazing night. I have heard about all the lines and wait times on the trains, and buses, but I managed to get every bus with the perfect timing. Here are a few pics. I also realized that although I really like BC, and thought I would make it my home, I am going back to Alberta, because it is where I really feel is home for me.

This is what my week looked like this week. Nora was away nights due to a campaign that had something to do with the Olympics, which is why I was working more for them, and at A&W we had the torch run, and the mall is doing stuff for the Olympics, so I was working more for them.

It was a pretty busy week for me. I am hoping that it will not be so crazy next week. I was tired, but not exhausted.

olympics

I am not a huge "yay olympics" person, but I went to the torch relay to say that I was a part of history, I don't have time to type it all now, but here are some pics.
