COWazy turkey eekend!

Happy TURKEY to you weirdo's out there, hehe... kidding!

So yeah, as you all know... I went back up north last weekend for thanksgiving and spending time with my herd! Cattle herd, hahahha! *ahem* I mean, ma-ma-moo family! hehe!

First of all, I ended up going on this bus ride to Williams Lake where by the end of it I felt like ripping my hair out and beating the shit out of that wacko dude sitting beside me on the bus! Grrrrrr! Haha, yeaaahhhh riggghttt... ME, beating some dude out who happens to be a drug dealer and has no pure values whatsoever... :O whatever! I sure felt like it tho... the cow in me sure wanted to COW-FU his ass!!! Butt with my bloodshot eyes from his cancer smoking stick and my feeling of uncleanliness... I had to learn to LOVE tha guy... sheesh God, what the flip! haha, kidding! God sure taught me a lot about this experience... I have no stinking clue WHAT, but He did! :P Noooo... God just showed me how much we need to love our neighbors no matter what they are doing, and to pray for them nonetheless... and just how corrupt the world is, and even when we feel like we're the only Christian in a big group like that, we need to stay strong and continue to be a lighthouse amoungst the stormy world... we may... I may have been the only Jesus that dude may have met... although I didn't SAY anything to him, but I'm sure he knew cuz he kept looking at me... it was weird! What a weirdo! Haha, kidding! But I know God was watching over me and HE planned for me to experience that horrible bus ride on the greyhound ALL the way to Willie's puddle. Thank you God. :)

Anymoo, my weekend was pretty crazy! I spent a lot of time with my family which I loved so ever much!!! On Saturday (Oct.7th) I ended up going to the other end of the valley with my dad and bro Trev to go split cows... man was it messy! Blood everywhere! hehe, kidding! We had to bring in the cows and split them up because we were going to sell some of them and keep the rest. So we did some steer riding, some gymkana, some cow wrestling... had to feed and water those weird and annoying animals... :D... haha, but it was a lot of fun! Not to mention I almost got trampled by those beasts! Some close calls... sure got my heart going, hahaha! Who knew cow splitting would be so fun and dangerous! I swear one cow kept his eye on me the whole time, he kept looking at me funny... weirdo. He was the one that kept mooing the whole time, hehe. :P

And then we had a great family thanksgiving dinner on Sunday with our bestfriends Hattie's family (Tanis')! I seriously ate so much I must've looked, or at least I felt as pregnant as my dad's two big belly'd cows... : Is that good??? hehe. I think sssssNOT!

And yeah, we were supposed to brand 4 cows... suckers!... on Monday, BUT that didn't work out because a few of our herd had a little bit too much to drink the night before... poor cows! Hahah! *ahem* I mean uncles! Yeah, that's it. So we just ended up spending the day at the bandoffice with the Solomon family, who had recently lost one of their elders (Henry Solomon... he will be missed by many :(... ). They had a community thanksgiving dinner that evening, which was nice because most of the valley showed up. And then later that evening they had some gambling going on at David Setah's house... so we went for fun, haha! Fun, riiigghhtt... that's the word! : It was actually quite b-o-r-i-n-g! haha! I mean I had a "BLAST"! I could eat my brains out! Sheesh :P

The next day was late Henry's funeral on Tuesday, which was the day I was supposed to head back to Abby, but I'm glad I stayed to support the Solomon family in their time of need. It was actually a very gorgeous day, beautiful weather, and tons of people showed up for his funeral... even people from up Fort.St.John... wow! He was VERY well known that's for sure! And it was an outside funeral service... first one I've been to, it was nice. And then later that evening after the whole funeral service and what not, Jo and I drove back to Williams Lake and I ended up crashing at her place for the night... *counted jumping cows in my dreams* :P hehe.

But Wednesday wasn't as killer as I thought... I mean it was but Thursday was THE DAY of all days! I'll get to that later... so yeah, Wednesday I rode a cow back to abby... I seriously have to be the best steer rider in all the world! :P haha! My cow bucked my uncle nelson off at the ferry terminal and then persisted on back towards Abby... I ended up getting to youth late that night... they were all so very surprised with my awesome cow of a ride! It was pretty sweet! hahahahahah! With my chaps and everything, hahahahha! *ahem* So I was extremely exhausted that night, but the youth nevertheless continued to kick me around the gym and cheated their way into winning... I'm still pretty bitter about that! :P hahah, the Enns boys mainly! Bunch of bums! THEN I finally arrived back to the apartment where my roommates Renee and Angela had previously sent out the search party! haha, they were sure worried about me... not to mention my cell phone had shut off... not telling why! hehe... so they couldn't get a hold of me... but they were glad I got back SAFE and sound with my cow parked outside! hehe.

THURSDAY... what a lovely day! hahahah... WOW! This day was special... I'm sure everyone thought I was on drugs or something... well to start, I must've left my brain back up north, or it bounced out or something, hahah... because NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING made sense that day! My words and thought patterns and actions were sooooo messed up! I was basically recovering from the past weekend because my ENTIRE being was WONKY! Hahahahha... I felt like a zombie all day and hahahahah... it was just a W-E-I-R-D day!!! Ahhhhhh! It's soo hard to explain... you just had to be in my brain and in my presence to understand what I was going through... hahaha, I don't think I've experienced anything like it, it was cowazy!!! hahahahha.... ahhhhhh... yeah, hahahha... I don't know what to say! Haha! I just felt like a cow all day... stunned yet annoying to not understanding myself to speaking squirrel to taking my brain out and squishing it on the ground to laughing at myself because what I was going through was unexplainable! What a day! Woooooo! :P

And so today... well today I ended up going to Vern's mom Margarett's funeral after mom's time out at Grace church... but FIRST having a "kick in the face" coffee (as Ang 'n Renee would say, hahaha! Funny!) that I made... WOW, it sure did kick me in the face!!! I was zapped awake and seriously, the effects aren't so zappy happy, hahah... I've been twitching all day, hahahha! And my eyes keep going cross eyed, HAHAHAHAHHA! That's some SERIOUS coffee! HAHAHAHAH! Wooooooooooooooo... yeah! My brain is on overload right now! hehe. Not to mention I snorted coffee out of my nose after Renee made a joke about my coffee, HAHAH! Whoa, it's still coming out of my nose, hah! *wipes nose on arm* hehe. :D So anyone, if you want to be kicked in the face, just let me know and I'll make you some of my kick ass coffee! ;) hahaha! But anyway... back to the point! Today was Vern's moms funeral... she passed away at 80 years... so they gathered at the church at 1pm... and I sat in the back pue's WIDE-cross eye'd (coffee effects) with Celeste, Barbara, Shailey, Dave 'n Melissa... and Craig 'n Jonathon sat not too far away... but what was cool was that the people who spoke about Margarett Brown spoke about what a great impact she left on their lives, while making jokes about what she did making everyone in the congregation laugh... it was very encouraging. When I die, whenever that is, but not without a fight... COWFU you! Waaaa! Had-saa!... *ahem* when I pass away I want people to remember me with a smile and no tears, but only tears of joy because I will have gone to a better place, and no place gets any better than HEAVEN, chillaxing with God and annoying him to death with my plain old weird self, hahahha! Mwahahah! Hopefully he won't throw me out of heaven, hahah! Anyway, back to the point... it was not so much a sad funeral, but a happy one remembering the great memories Margarett left behind and the footprints she left in her loved one's lives.

So yeah, THAT above has been my COWazy week... I seriously need to relaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx...

Oh and by the way, my cell is up and running again... so you can now finally reach me! My voicemail will prove it, hehe!

Moo ya all laters!

"When in doubt, moo before the cow does!" -myself- cool eh?! Thought it up myself! *I think my brain is still wonky from the coffee this morning?? * hehe!

Gone like the cross-eye'd cow, Yo!
