So, Krystin tells me that I should update. She's right, I should.
We'll start with the fact that I'm going to Toronto in October for a Celtic Thunder concert, it's the taping of the new show "STORM" next year, so I'm gonna be on the DVD, won't that be cool. It'll be great craic. Michelle and Tony and the kids will be coming up too, and it'll be great to see them again.
I had hurt my knee on Wednesday, so I walked in to a clinic on Thursday after work, got in to see Dr.Rai and he didn't like the way I was walking so he gave me a WCB for a week off. But by last night, the pain was all gone so I booked an appointment with him today so I could get cleared to go back to work. As soon as I said that the pain was gone, he got suspicious and wanted to look at my knee and he began pressing it so get a flinch or any reaction of pain but he didn't get anything because it didn't hurt. At one point, he's like "You flinched" and I'm like, "no, I didn't." Finally, he cleared me to go back on Monday and he's like "I'll clear you for MONDAY, if you admit you're faking it." And I say "I'm not faking it." But I did get the clearance for Monday with the promise that if it gets worse again, I'll go straight in and hey, I'll take what I can get, right? The funniest thing, though, was that he thought I was lying the whole time, but I wasn't. Anybody who knows me, knows that I can't lie, I'm awful at it which he said. He's said "You're such a bad liar," and I am. There's that news.
Anything else to post about. I did go to Utah and Vegas in the Summer. The pictures are all on facebook. I should actually post the pics. from Head-Smashed in Buffalo Jump. I'll do that today.
I'm planning a trip to Scotland and Ireland next year with mum and since we're already gonna be across the pond, we'r planning on going to Spain and Italy, too. I'm trying to convince mum to go to Denmark because I want to see the 2 oceans colliding in Skaagen. I think that would be so cool. I'll have to save Germany for a different trip because I want to spend more time there, go to Auschwitz and some castles. There are so many places I want to go. I'll just list them all, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Scotland, Denmark, Germany, India, Australia(apparently there's a beach in Australia that you can actually use the sand to polish your jewelry. Isn't that cool?), Nauvoo, I think I'd also like to go to each of the provinces, so that I can say that I've been from one end of the country to the other, I might not go to the Northwest Territories, not sure if I feel like freezing my butt off. I also want to ride a train. That would be fun.
Sorry, I can't think of much else. If I think of something else, I'll post it. Laters skaters.

If you make it bigger you can see their autographs.
Their buses, obviously. They had 4 of them.
And can't forget the stage. It looks like a ship. I think that's cool.

Ok, here's the long awaited Celtic Thunder pictures. The first is Paul, then George, then Ryan, then Damian. I guess I didn't get one of Keith, my bad.

READ THE BOTTOM ONE FIRST. I ACCIDENTALLY PUBLISHED IT B4 I WAS DONE. I also got a good picture of Paul. I'll post the pictures when I get home from church. It was so much fun. It was great craic.

It's been a long time since I updated. Well, last night was the Celtic Thunder concert. It was absolutely amazing. They did a wonderful job.

They had several new songs which were amazing. The first new song was by the band, Belfast Polka/Pennsylvania Railroad. One of the violinists played the whistle and was running across the stage and jumping. I'm impressed with anyone that can do that and not be breathless. George sang a song called Working Man with the guys in the background. They all sang take Me Home, I love that song. Damian did one called Happy Birthday Sweet 16, that was a really good song. Ryan did Every Breath You Take aka Stalker song. His version is very good, much better than the original. George did 500 Miles, which was amazing. He had us sing with him with part of it. Damian did Breaking up is hard to do. Paul did You raise me up. I much prefer Josh Groban's version, but Paul's was very good too. The band also did Apalachian Round Up. You should have seen Zara slap Ryan during Heartbreaker. You could hear the crack, of course they did have microphones right by their ears. I feel bad for Ryan, getting slapped on the face almost every night but it was hilarious. In Caledonia, when Paul sang his solo he slowly pulled his kilt up on his left leg, it was so funny. He does it every show so you knew he was gonna do it, you just didn't know when. The other songs were great too, but I won't talk about those ones as well otherwise this would be really long. It was the best concert I've ever been to. Beat the Celine Dion and the Josh Groban concerts hands down.

We weren't allowed to take pictures at all, so I only have pictures of before and after the concert. We waited by the buses for the boys to come out after the concert and I got pictures of each of the guys. When Paul came out we weren't sure if it was him because he had a hat on and he kept his head down but we asked him and he told us "You'll just have to find out" and then we knew it was him, it was his voice and then he kinda looked up. The one I got of Keith makes him look like a girl and his head was down. George talked to us a little bit. Ryan actually did talk to us, so I'd say that I met him and George because they actually talked to us. Damian just walked by but I got good good pictures of him, George, Ryan

Ok, so I am so excited. Celtic Thunder is coming to Edmonton on May 2. I'm buying my tickets tomorrow. Just so you all know, I can't wait. I'll get lots of pics. and put them on here. And yes Krystin, that is partly why I am so excited for St. Patty's day, but i have always loved St. Patty's day, even before Aerin was born.

Update

Sorry it's been so long. Let's see, what's new in my life. Not much, just the ordinary. We had a Valentine's Day party today at work. One of the little girls mum wasn't working today, but she brought her in today for the party. She was gonna come by at 3 to pick her up, and then at 2, she was beginning to get grumpy, and she felt a little warm as if she had a low fever, so I took her temperature and oh my gosh, no jokes, she had a fever of 39.4 or 103, which is very high. The poor kid, I felt so bad for her. And I also got to work an extra 2 hours today, so instead of working 8 hours, I worked for 10 hours. So, I worked from 6:30-5:50, with an hour for lunch. I was covering for another girl. I don't know what else to tell ya. Oh, I am so excited for St. Patrick's Day. I can't wait. Happy Valentine's Day. Have fun. Remember who you are.
