Can you tell it is getting to the end of the questions? I am not as excited at these last few questions as I was in the first ones. I am taking a break from answering.
My big sister will be here tomorrow night in Calgary. She will visit with sweet Tara then we will meet in the am on Thursday. So looking forward to this visit. Carter is coming with her. Ya! Only 4 more sleeps!
I know the days will just fly by. I will savor every second. Jenn's not gonna get much sleep:) hopefully she and Tara can recover from their kidless day and night cause I am putting them on a roller coaster on Thursday:) I should rephrase and say the boys will put them on the roller coaster. well, it is bed time for me. Off to work in the AM.

Super Power!
If I could have one super power, what would it be and what would I do first? Only one... I really need to think.
So I have thought of it and I think I would like to know what people are really thinking and feeling. Like Professor X. It sure would be handy these days, come to think of it.
Actually it could be quite detrimental to a lot of my relationships... hmmm maybe not that super power. Darn, back to the drawing board.
Still haven't really given up on the reading people's minds super power, I have given it some time(weeks since I started this entry) but knowing what other people are thinking and feeling would be the power I would like with the added feature of being able to turn it on and off at any given time. Sticking with my original super power... :)

3 Significant Childhood Memories
I guess when I think of childhood I think of pre-teen so I can not really include the abandoned house we hung out in that was close to where my cousins lived. But I think it deserves an honourable mention along with the friends that knew about it and enjoyed time with us there as well. No need for names, I know and love who you are:)
When we moved from that house to St. Adolphe de Dudswell, it seemed like my playmates were gone! Not so, we still saw each other lots and this new place had a great brook that had swimming holes and a place we lovingly called the falls. You know how things are so much bigger as a kid then as an adult, I would like to think that these falls are still just as wonderful and big as I remember but chances are my kid eyes and kid stature made them bigger in my memory than their true size. oh well, the falls and that brook are definitely one of those most terrific memories.
There are many memories and I can think of, many I would like to write about but I really want to mention the time when I was in high school, which in my high school that was grade 7 to grade 11. (we called them level 1 to level 5). I know it is not a pre-teen memory but it is a memory of when I would still consider myself to have been a child, not really getting into adult stuff.
So I made new friends in high school, the english high school was a compilation of all the smaller english elementary schools in the area. I made friends with a most wonderful girl named Kim. The first or second summer she invited me to stay with her at her Grandma's cottage for part of the summer. My parents let me go and it was an excellent time. The one thing I remember best about that trip was getting my hair cut and sending the hair locks through the mail back to my mom and dad! My hair was pretty long and I think we cut it pretty short. My parents were pretty easy going so it was funny!

Not an answer.
This entry is not an answer to a question.
It is just me writing about whatever. I enjoy my work days so much. Some think I am crazy but oh well. Walked in with a co-worker yesterday and he sarcastically said, "just another fun filled day hey Julie?" and I agreed, non sarcastically. It was kind of funny. Chatted in french at work about work with one of my co-workers who is from New Brunswick, he is french though. Was kind of neat.
What did I do this week, hmmm. I spent some time with my Sherry, which always makes me happy. We talked about some serious things for just a few minutes. Things I needed to express to her so I could see a clearer picture of a situation. She is always so awesome. I saw my Shannon on Sunday night and my Rachael on Monday evening for a run/walk of snake hill. It has been a good couple of days.
Just came back from my nightly jog/walk of snake hill. Getting to be able to run for longer, not necessarily faster. Which is fine with me:) I am thinking that this is a pretty sweet pastime since I am actually enjoying it and it is good for me and it gives me an hour of time to myself to think, to listen to music to just be me. The me I can be honest with on all things that I might want to tell myself one thing but really it is not that way at all. You know, to get it all out there to yourself while you are listening. Boy that doesn't sound too coherent. Might have to edit...But I won't. I guess I should go to bed. The mornings are still showing up way too early. And you know that it is early if I think it is early! 3 o'clock is pretty close to the middle of the the night, should not be awake this late or up this early. SO what is going on? I need to go some zzzzz's so I am going to bed now, 10:30 is somewhat early but I am beat. Until next time. jy

Home
If I could live anywhere, where would that be and why?
Honestly, really, right here and now. This is where I am designed to be. As much as I long for my family and friends in other places, I can not think of any where else I would like to call home right now than here. The future holds many things for me, and I can not say where it might take me, but as for now, I long to be no where else but here in little Sundre, Alberta. I do not want to be anywhere that God has not lead me to. And I am 110% positive that Sundre is my space.

Not a Question
Just wanted to write. I had an excellent day. I think the people that are in my life are simply fabulous and I wanted to let you all know that. It is the people I work with, the girls I share my life with, the family near and far that I hold dear to my heart and thoughts.
What a great evening spent with friends. I was asked today what I did for entertainment and as I was trying to give the answer I realized I spend a lot of time with people. Not necessarily doing anything particular, just enjoying the company I keep. Thank you my girls, thank you. It was a most terrific ending to a very delightful day!!

Forgiveness
The most difficult thing I have had to forgive.
How do you describe that without dragging the forgiven person through the mud? SO I will write one of my very best friend's favourite saying:
Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
I drank a lot of poison before I truly forgave this person. But I did not like who I was becoming, I was dying. So, I quit drinking the poison and started taking the antidote, forgiveness. Sometimes it takes a bit for the counter action to occur but it did. I guess it just depends on how much you have let the poison enter your heart. :-)

Question #16, my 5 greatest accomplishments
I think I should be aloud a skip question and this might be it. Although I am a little nervous to answer # 27 due to the fact I should be honest but might not be... Think, Think, Think...Okay, I do not know about which is the greatest but here are 5 things I think of when I hear the word accomplishment:
`1` My boys, Caleb and Joshua. I can be a patient person. I can tolerate lack of sleep. I can do with some noise. I am capable of handling many things thrown my way. But the simple fact that these two were not thrown out a window at some point before they turned 1 year old is an accomplishment for me. I remember there were nights, always between 3-5am, just before the light of a new day, I had thoughts. Not so good thoughts. That is when I knew it was time to put that baby as far away from me as possible and just let him cry his eyes out regardless if Troy woke up or not. These nights were extremely rare but I did consider dropping Caleb off the back porch when we lived in the little house. And Joshua, well, the bad nights with him were slightly more often, go figure. Joshua would have been dropped off the back or the front deck of the duplex we lived in then. Either way I knew I couldn't really do that so I either cried with them or put them down in a safe spot and just left to another room for a breath and some quiet. Troy rescued his boys a few nights, taking them for a car ride for a few hours so I could get a few hours sleep before they nursed again. Breast feeding had many up sides but the fact that they only breast fed and took no bottles was also to my detriment. My boys were not hard babies by any stretch of the imagination, no colic, nothing like that. There were just 'those' nights.

`2` Sticking to the plan and not moving back to Quebec in the first 3 years I was out in Alberta. I got pretty homesick, not that you could tell but there were those days, and weeks...
I knew in my heart this is where I was supposed to be so I stayed.
`3` My family. I love my family. As the boys grow there is so much more to do together and having the weekend off now! It is so good.
`4` My friends. I love my friends. I work at those relationships because they mean so much more to me than things or stuff.
`5` Blank, I really want to move on from this question so that's all.

#17
The thing I wish I was most great at. It is not over the top or really exciting, but as long as I can remember I have always wanted to be able to sing. I can not sing well you see. I love to sing loud and long but try to mostly do it while others are not around. I have always longed to belt out a song like Celine Dion.

Animal?
If you were an animal, what would you be and why?
When I was a kid, I was on the school bus for a long stretch of time before and after school. And people, let's face it, I am a dreamer. So I had a magical stallion that could run as fast as the bus and leap over any terrain. He was the most magnificent animal. He helped pass the time as I watched him run along side and throw his mane back and look at every obstacle and know he was its conqueror. I would like to think all stallions are like my imaginary horse. I never gave him a name because he was a wild horse like the Black Stallion.
I loved horses then and I love them still. Such a strong and graceful creature yet he lets humans ride him because he is gentle and humble. Great power with a beautiful character. That is why I would desire to be a horse.

Weaknesses and Strengths
This one is 2 questions, what are 5 of my weaknesses and what are 5 of my strengths.
a) I think one of my greatest weaknesses is that I can be easily distracted and completely fine about not finishing what I was doing. I start out with all the will power needed but it seems to dissipate quite quickly as time passes. I know this about myself and I try hard to stay committed to the needed things and to let go or not even bother starting some other not so important things.
b) I can be forgetful. That is why I tell the guys at work, if you do not see me writing down what you are saying, it will most likely get forgotten. Make certain I have written it down. I consistently write stuff down at work because there are many things I have to remember to do and talk to others about. If only I could be so diligent at home. Just a couple of days ago I went to the store to get Troy some pop and at the store I texted him to ask what kind. By the time I reached for the pop I had automatically picked what I originally thought he would like, not what he texted me.oops! Story of my life:)
c) I tend to avoid conflict to a fault. I am much better now, especially in this position at work I can say no much easier than when I began. But I avoid talking about things that might upset the balance of life at home or at work. I keep convincing myself that it is healthy to talk things through, even uncomfortable things but it doesn't help. I would much rather hid under a rock and wait for the storm to pass then have to deal with my issues. Unfortunately for me, it does not solve my problems it just puts them off to another time and usually it is worse:(
d) I really dislike cleaning. I mean I am almost sure that people can not enjoy cleaning but I know people who make me think they might... and I think of them like I think of that guy in the movie with Julia Roberts called 'Sleeping with the Enemy'. I have a list a mile long of other things that need to be done like watch a movie, hang out with friends, bake(which I have found just makes more of a mess cause I am a messy baker:), read a book, go for a walk, and a million other things that are essential to my well-being.
e)There is one recent weakness in my life that I can not share with you all. So I am leaving this one with this word from the book Of Micah, chapter 7. "Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me."
1) My strengths, hmmm, not everyone would agree that this is one of my strengths but I think it is. My love of people. I think people are just fantastic. I guess I should rephrase and say 'I think most people are just fantastic'. There have been some that I really do not care for but they are few and far between. I like my alone time occasionally, but for the most part, put me in with friends or strangers and I will find my way into their lives. I guess, if I was being honest, I can get a tad bit carried away when it comes to caring for some people. Not that they would realize it.
2) I do not worry. I do not put much thought into all the bad things that could go wrong with a situation. I like to live in the moment. I think weakness item "b" above might play into my ability to easily flow trough life without much to worry about because I do not remember what I should be worrying about to begin with:) When I do occasionally stress about something I get physically sick. Weird.
3) I easily forgive when asked to forgive from a sincere heart. I am all about second chances. I have had my fair share of many second chances over the same things and I always find that if I forgive, I am the benefactor of that decision. As forgiving as I am though, I find it much harder to forgive someone who justifies the hurt they cause instead of saying 'I am sorry'. That I am working on and it is not easy.
4) I am a morning person. This is definitely a strength for me. I am not saying being a night person is a weakness, it just doesn't work for me. I love being able to be up at the crack of dawn watching the sun rise. Morning is my productive time and it suits my life well. Especially now when 5am is Monday through Friday without the option of added sleep. I would get up at this time occasionally but I did not HAVE to get up. Now it is a must but I am quite delighted to go to work.
5) Man, I have been working on this entry for a while... last one, hmmmmm. Should have change the questions to 4 and 4 not 5 of each! Why don't you comment on my Facebook and let me know what my fifth strength is. Good IDEA! Done.

Typical Day
Well, it is the halfway point of this question adventure and I have lost the interest and drive I had at the beginning. No surprise there. But I have made a promise to myself to see every question answered as honestly as I can and just omit what I do not want to share to the world. So here goes:
A typical work day is not very typical. I have a very divers job and the items I do vary a lot from day to day but let me try to sum it up, not necessarily in any order of sequence.
I am usually up and out of bed by 5-5:10am.
Get dressed for work and get out the door by 5:30-5:35am.
Work starts at 6am but I am usually able to get the coffee on and have my cup full before then.
From that point everything is not in sequence.
I check the dry valve system at work. Take note of the air and water pressure. For those that do not know what I am talking about is the sprinkler system, and fire protection.
I talk to many different people throughout the day. I see and talk to all the new employees on a regular basis, observing them, asking them questions about things their supervisors should be teaching them. I get to spend a lot of my time with the 'big wigs' on site like superintendents and supervisors as well as the general manager. I knew most of these people already but not like this. They are an interesting group that I enjoy very much! :) I fill out some paperwork, do presentations, I have attended many different courses having to do with safety and leadership, and I take tours of the site looking for unsafe things, actions and behaviours.
My days are never boring and I am always busy, but if you saw me at the end of the day and asked me what I did today, I sometimes would be unable to give you a quantifiable answer. That's okay, I am not task orientated.
I leave work around 3:30-4, make supper for my family and then I usually have something booked for the evening. Staying home is definitely not my forté. It can be a detriment to my relationships at home with my family sometimes though. I am aware of this and I try to stay home a little more these days. I love my boys(Troy included) but they are not real talkative. My girlfriends are chatty and we interact socially a whole lot more then my family and I do.
And the end of the day(which ranges anywhere between reasonable and way too late) has to come so I can do it all over again the next day.

10 Pet Peeves
1^=^1 Little 'know it all' boys that continue to argue with their mother even though they know they should just be quiet and do as they are told! Ahhh. Good thing he is cute or he would not survive his childhood. Wonder if this how my mother felt about me somedays? He has been sent to his room, where were we?
2^=^2 Being lied to. I guess this one is more than just a pet peeve. I like to think of myself as someone who likes to speak the truth all the time but I have, lately, found I am lying to myself about something and I do not want to hear the truth. I am annoying myself. Go figure. lol
3^=^3 Others eating the dough from cookies or cakes or anything I am baking before it is cooked! Not that this post will deter anyone but I truly hate it!
4^=^4 Being late. I try to be places and to appointments early. I really do not like being late.
5^=^5 Not being able to be a morning person and a night person in the same 24 hour period. Actually, not true. I can. It's just the morning personality suffers some:) Gone are the days that I stayed up all night on Wellington street with ... you know who you are, and head to work as the sun was coming up. Thanks for those memories;)
6^=^6 Not having anyone here to share in those memories.
7^=^7 Parents that can't grow up.
8^=^8 I do not know if this would be considered a pet peeve but I dislike long periods of silences. I like conversation and laughter.
9^=^9 I am annoyed at this list cause I can't think of a whole lot more to say.
10^=^10 I do not like being left out.
2^=^2 Being lied to. I guess this one is more than just a pet peeve. I like to think of myself as someone who likes to speak the truth all the time but I have, lately, found I am lying to myself about something and I do not want to hear the truth. I am annoying myself. Go figure. lol

5^=^5 Not being able to be a morning person and a night person in the same 24 hour period. Actually, not true. I can. It's just the morning personality suffers some:) Gone are the days that I stayed up all night on Wellington street with ... you know who you are, and head to work as the sun was coming up. Thanks for those memories;)
6^=^6 Not having anyone here to share in those memories.
7^=^7 Parents that can't grow up.
8^=^8 I do not know if this would be considered a pet peeve but I dislike long periods of silences. I like conversation and laughter.
9^=^9 I am annoyed at this list cause I can't think of a whole lot more to say.
10^=^10 I do not like being left out.
My Most Embarrassing Moment...
I will not lie, I have my fair share. Some are hilariously funny, others not so much. But I think I will refrain from going into details about any of them. Just go look at #1 of the Post "10 Things I Would Tell My 16 Year Old Self"and you can chuckle about that :)
...continued from previous
* A woman named Elizabeth Elliot through a book called, "In the Shadow of the Almighty".
* Adrian Rogers, even if you are gone you are still speaking to me:)
* * You know those people you meet and you do life with for only a short while and realize this is everything I do not want to be. I have 2 in particular that I think influenced me not to make the same choices as them. Thank you for making those wrong choices so I can learn from your idiocy instead of my own.
