RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

Awww... to Brian...guess my social graces were tireder than me!!!
You will be back Kim...maybe you can make it up for Rendezvous!!! Or the finish of the quest??? We have so much to offer, I think lots of folk should come up here in the summer!!! Maybe all the female wisdom and whatnot in such a concentrated level was too much for him at that late hour???

RE: maximum women don't know what they are looking!

I am so far from alone...in every sense of my life; And even when I have been single, I have never been alone or lonely, for I have the love of friends and family....and I hate to tell you, after weeding through a few not so great ones, and learning a few more hard lessons...I am very much in a committed, loving and healthy relationship. So much for your theory...sucks to be you! dancing:

RE: Canada

Yep, I agree geo...having just escaped the clutches of Saskatchewan! Things are never as good or will they be as good as perceived to be. Historically is Sask. there have been high hopes and great starts, but for some reason or another...deflation happens quickly and many are left hanging. The economy, which I believe is false, has rapidly risen, far too much for the average Joneses...I know many who were greatly effected by PCS layoffs...I also know many farmers who aren't able to continue to maintain what they have, and many people unable to continue to maintain their lifestyles because the cost of everything has increased. For those who work for the establishment, that being the government, which crown corps are...hats off to you that you have that protection. My point is, every province/territory and country goes hot and cold...it is what it is, when it is. You make the best of it, try to save what you can and enjoy what life offers you and what you can attain.
JMO, but look at my stepson, who bought a home and built a life based on the great job he had with mining in the northeast...that was shut down and he is now back in AB, on the rigs, with my soninlaw. The other soninlaw, if he ever can get his dad's crop off, is planning on heading back out to the rigs as well! - along with most of their peers...cuz they can't get into the bigass jobs with the unions...they can't afford the super high cost of school...so they go west!

RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

Haha...I said..OMG, you are so little!!! I know you are vertically challenged...but in my head, your personality and words and essence...can't explain it, just you are a little itty bitty girl Kim!.
Visit...awesome, too short - too compacted! Me...to tired and working too much!
Hoping you all arrived safe and sound in Edmonton!

RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

RE: How many of you have met in real?

See you real soon

RE: Hello from Saskatoon!

Hi Eir!!! Forgot to say...you do realize that there is something extraoridinary about us prairie girls don't you???

RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

Just to let you know Kim, it's been getting a tad chilly at night - the furnace was set low last night and it still kicked in and there has been a pretty good layer of frost on the windows in the mornings...although you and your man probably keep the warmth level in that sleeper pretty high
Bring your camara...the colours are second to none...would be so great to take you up Mt. MacIntyre...the views...colours, man could you paint a picture K!!!

RE: Hello from Saskatoon!

Hi and welcome Eir...I am formally from the PA area...moved way up north about 6 months ago to be with my man; who I met here on CS. I really hope you can join in on the forums (it should pick up in the fall) and that you find that special someone...

RE: R.I.P.

I forgot Red Dawn and Point Break, but above all of that, despite his fame and fortune, I really believe he was a man of genuine integrity...and that is hard to find.

RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

That sounds fantastic. Let's hope Gordy is in town...it's a long drive out to the mine, I'm pretty sure. I only live a block from the Chalet..,
Did Brian tell you that they moved the plane down the road a bit...used to it now, but it looked very strange for a bit!

RE: What's The Weather Like In Your Area?

Here too! But it should warm up to about 15 later today with some sunshine...autumn is beautiful here; the colours!

RE: My music mood tonight ...

Well, last night watched videos of ZZtop playing La Grange and George Thoroughgood doing his thing...Learning Segar's Turn the Page on guitar...Glen got this recording mixing thing, so hoping we can put something together...Love playing guitar with Glen and the kiddo has become very good as well...

RE: R.I.P.

It is scary, no two ways about it.
Loved the movies Roadhouse and Dirty Dancing...but could watch Ghost over and over. A man with talent and pretty easy on the eyes...may he be at peace and without pain.

RE: HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOLLANDGIRL!!!

Happy Birthday to you!!!! Here's wishing you a Happy Year as well

RE: Attention Eyes and Gordy...

Hell ya!!! I will send you my #. Not sure what hours I will be working when, but we are going to get together
The fall colours are breathtaking...am sure you will enjoy your trip...hold your breath at Summit for me!!!

RE: Hello everyone

welcome back Althea....

What a Difference a Year can make...

And to you and your intended as well! Set a date yet?

What a Difference a Year can make...

A few days past a year ago, my significant other and I started communicating through this site...then msn to phoning and so on and so on...
Just wanted to let you all know that again, there are those relationships that happen and continue to happen every day. We are happy together, we choose to "live apart together" and I do not regret listening to my gut, taking a chance and moving here. I do believe that we are a result of a cosmic nudge - like many others - we are meant to be! So, hang in there all...your meant to be is just waiting for that right nudge

RE: Popping by

Hi curly...hoping all is better than great for you and yours!

BC Fires

Just want to take this opportunity to send positive thoughts and hope to all of our CSers in BC and to those who have family and friends affected by the fires! It is so frightening to see images of Lilloet with a raging fire not a kilometer away Up here in the Yukon we have had some serious fires (with evacuations etc.) and alot of smoke, but cannot imagine having to evacuate to the extent of our neighbours in the south.

RE: Special Request ...

Thanks Kim...was a nice message!

RE: Special Request ...

Just wondering Kim, have you talked to Jenny at all? How is she doing? Just if you are talking to her, let her know I am thinking of her, as I am sure many are...sending hugs to her.

RE: It's something everyone should see...

Oh, how I wish a production like that would venture up here. I have caught snippets of it on news blurbs etc. and always thought - now that is something I would really like to see! And you never know...cheap airfare and hotels? You just never know! How lucky you were to be able to experience it Kim...so glad you enjoyed it!

RE: Canada

Yes, what Gordy says is true...however, if you are single and willing, there are several opportunities to live in roommate and board and room situations so that a lower wage can be manageable. It all depends upon what you want life to offer you right now. I know several people who, because they don't have the responsibilities of a kid or two, work more than one job, house sit for people who are away, so they don't need household goods or to pay rent..just playing devil's advocate here, Gord.
Gas, well the past few weeks it is cheaper here than is Sask. I know that some of the services (internet/cable) are far pricier than down south. However, I really have not noticed a raise in my grocery bill - mind you the restaurants are more expensive here!
And for me, I could always use a bit extra $, who couldn't, but I truly believe that it is more than worth it. I plan on dying here to gordy!

RE: I BET NONE OF YOU HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED REAL LOVE AND COULD'NT EVEN " TELL US " WHAT REAL LOVE IS ?

"Real love"? It, in my opinion, is something that is very individual. The love that is so complete and unconditional, that began before the birth of my children - that is real love. The love that I witnessed between my Grandparents for over 60 years - that was and is real love. But, both kinds are different from the other.
Real love? Between lovers/partners? For me it is without conditions, it is accepting, it is forgiving. It is knowing that we don't have to be together all the time in order to love one another. It is not completing the other, or two halves becoming one...it is two completes complimenting each other, nurturing, learning,challenging, honouring,being together and not having to say anything. Feeling his eyes watching me and feeling safe. Real love for me is when he knows enough to let me figure things out, not to do it all for me, to respect each others opinions and differences, and not try to even begin to change the other. Real love is allowing the other to teach us something. Real love is when we bring out the best in each other. When there in no comparing us to past relationships...because we are we and we are what matter. Real love is knowing in my heart, that whatever may happen, I will always be a better person because of the love I have given to, been given and have accepted from a very special man.
There is so much more, because real love is not constant, it changes and strengthens, it deepens and yes it may even hurt, but it is real...
Did I love before...yes, but not as a whole, healthy person and it was not respectful or honourable...was it real? I don't know, but I know that it was REALly unhealthy...
