ok guys

i went to see my grandpa on saterday. he is up and down like crazy. one minute he is ok with it and he will be like maybe i don't have to go to toronoto. or you ready to make all those bus trips to see me again? and sometimes he is just iek i cna't believe its back, i don't believe it, i wont until they tell me on thursday. its so hard to sit there when he is almost crying. we put him to work though planting flowers we brought for grandma and digging some out for us. him and dad and uncle donny were also looking at all of our cars he just got a new one this winter, and uncle donny just got a new accura. oh...and good news we found out that aunt meaghan is pregnant again...they weren't telling anyone but its obvious and so grandma asked uncle donny straight up, and he said yes. she is about 12 weeks, so pray that she wont loose the baby this time. and this was good news for my grandpa to hear too cuz donny is his only son. i am scared about my grandpa, but i have this kind of calming faith that everything is going to be ok. God is so awesome. He gave me you guys to help me to get through all the hard times. good friends are hard to find, i am so thankful to have you guys. pretend i am giving you hugs right now....even if you don't liek hugs ;) hehe. i spent today gardening with my mom, and i would imagine that if she is feeling alright after physio tomorrow we will be doing more. today was the hardest part though, after this we just have to plant little ones to fill spaces, and to fill containers. justin's arm seems to be getting better, thats good...it has taken so long. i cleaned our whole room yesterday and the day before because dan was comming and i didn't want him to know that i still hadn't put away all my school stuff. i had to give away a tone of clothes, but thats ok i have lots to spare. it looks nice and i even have some fresh cut lilacs in there to make it smell pretty...of course justin is allergic...but hey. i appreciate all of your prayers everyone. please keep praying for my grandpa, he is going to toronto on thursday...i guess thats when we will figure out what is going to happen, when treatment will start and where and whats gonna' go on. please pray for my grandpa to have strength, enough strength to get though. last time he wrote in his journal "i will beat this thing cancer". please pray he can do it again. and pray for his salvation. thank you all i love you all, have a good night. p.s. please pray that i keep up with my Bible reading and devotions and praying. thank you good night.

wow

when your world comes crashing down, when you feel completely alone, when your heart is breaking, when there is no place to cry, no arms to hold you no where for you...you feel like this. my grandpa has leukemia again. he is ready to face it and get it over with...but i am so scared. they say the second time around you don't do as well. he did so well last time...extremely well... he just got a new job. he had retired before he got sick, but now that he is well again he was bored. so he got a new job he just started...and now...he has to quit again. his life was finally getting back to normal...we had so many plans for the summer. today was a horrible day. it wasn't even just finding out about my grandpa...it was other stuff with my family...and i realized that sometimes your closest friends....don't care about you at all...and thats scarey...cuz they know everything about you...they are the people that will hurt you the most in your life. how do you know who to trust? how many chances can you give someone before they destroy you? please please please everyone pray for my grandpa! please! i really love him a lot.

fun

jen's wedding was beautiful. i didn't get to stay for the whole reception cuz ty wanted to leave but that was ok. what i got to be part of was great! i can't believe they are married!! congratulations jordan and jenny i know your lives together are going to be awesome and blessed by God!!! if anyone has pictures of the wedding plese send them to me:( i only have one its of jordan and jen at the refreshment time before the pictures and reception. after ty and i left he dropped me off with dan and we hung out for a bit. we went for a drive, it was pretty cool, you drive right along the river for a while, i am sure its beautiful in the day time. then we went up to the lift locks and watched the fire works...sounds nice eh? well he wanted me to go onto the tower with him but as soon as i passes through both sets of gates and took one step out i freaked out. i couldn't walk on the side(even though there is a rail) becase i could see the road and i knew i was going to slip and fall to my death. so of course i do this little hyper ventilate thing(oh goody) and dan was way ahead of me and he was like whats wrong? and i couldn't answer all i could do was hold on relaly tight and very carefully get back to the pavement where i wouldn't slip and fall to my death....which is surprisingly hard to do when you are hyper ventilating... the firse works were still cool even though we just stood on the concrete and watched....the fire works were hig enough to go over the trees. it actaulyl was reall nice...its was cool to see them from so far away and see them b4 hearing them. then he brought me to timmies and my daddy came and got me and brought me home where my brother's friends and i cruised fatchicksinpartyhats.com, there are swears by the millions...and bad ones...i don't reccomend the site at all, unless you don't read the captions. i know courtney campbell really likes the site. anyway despite my little heart attack at the lift locks, and the mind trash i was looking at, last night was awesome:) and againg congratulations jordan and jenny! p.s. jerry lies he came to the wedding like he said he wasn't going to...geeze...whats with that guy? i love you jerry!

jerry digs chicks!

our dear firend jerry bolton has, for as long as he has been at klbc at least, claimed to dislike women. i am stepping out on a limb here though, and i am gonna' say jerry lies. he tries too hard to pretend he doesn't love us...its a dead give away;) oh don't worry jerry we love you too! in other news not only did matt and ruth have a baby (matthewcook.blogspot.com), but tomorrow jordan and jenny are getting married!!!! how exciting is that? hello?? like 7 exciting! anyway i miss you all and you had better be comming to miliscus! i hope you all have a great friday night! i wish i had something smart to say...that seems to be the reson most people have these things...but i am not going to..mostly cuz i am a moron...anyway...oh..i found my stomping tom cassette...and my kenny rodgers one too...so my life has become a little more complete! ahh...the good old days...

good and bad

so i am so glad that joesph william is here. matt and ruth are parents!!! how exciting is that? so thats the good news. the bad news is, my grandpa got some blood tests a couple of weeks ago because he goes every few weeks for about a year now, since the leukemia has been gone. well, he has been bruising, which was the first sign that he had leukemia the first time...which seems so long ago now. also, the tests came back that his platelettes are low. thats a bad sign. i didn't tell anyone cuz i guess i thought it would go away if i pretended it wasn't real. well today he got a bome marrow test done, and i am scared again. the results wont come back for a week, but i am so scared. please pray for my grandpa, please! i don't want him to have to go through what he went through again, and i don't want him to die. he isn't a Christian, but i found out last summer that one of his sisters and her husband are. please pray that he and other members of my family will be saved, and pray that my grandpa doesn't have leukemia again. thank you all so much.

stress

ok so i am still finishing up my work. and i am trying to find an internship...which sucks when you live in a little pit and you can't drive to get someplace thats not a pit. and i am stressing out over trying to find way to be able to get to lindsay's and back all summer for her wedding and for fittings and stuff. life is 100% pure stress....i am begining to think that there really aren't many happy moments at all....like maybe every person gets between 2 and 12 in their whole lifetime. i hope i am the person who gets 12...but i am thinking i am the person who gets 2. well at least i am running again...then maybe i can be a little better looking and unhappy. if you are having a happy moment people, enjoy it! it might be your very last one ever. mother's day is tomorrow. that day to me feels like hey nicole this is the day people would be celebrating for you if you weren't a failure. i know God has a plan for me...but really...i think i am honestly gonna' be the woman throwing cats and laughing out whooo whoo whooo whooo whoo whoo whoo whoo heh. blah.
