Oops

No excuses this time just purely being lazy :( But hey atleast I remembered just now its been ages since I've updated. Though Sudheer did mention last week that maybe I ought to update the blog hehe.

Anyway lets get on with it.

I'm doing well in jolly ol England. I've applied for museum positions and actually got an interview. Sadly I didn't get the job but it was good experience anyway. I was so nervous before my interview, but once I got in there I really felt like I did well. Found out the only thing that kept me from getting the job is I don't have a driving license in this country. So I've been seriously considering taking driving lessons so I can get a license here. That however has been put on hold for the time being. I have recently found out I may have epilepsy. Its not for definite yet I still have lots of medical tests to go through but for now I'm banned from operating any heavy machinery :( All I know is I randomly faint, I wake up in the most unusual positions and places and wonder just what happened.

Sudheer and I celebrated Christmas last week just in case we weren't able to spend Christmas together (good news is we will be spending it together). I roasted a chicken and some vegetables. I even made yorkshire puddings for the first time. It was perfect except I forgot that puddings were in the oven so they came out a bit crispy, haha but that was okay we just used a bit extra gravy.

So here are a few pics of Cadheer Christmas :P

Wheels of Time

Once again it seems that time has escaped me and I've again neglected my poor blog. So what's new in my world..... Well I just got back from a trip back to Idaho, it was great to see friends and family again though I didn't get to see everyone I wanted to. But there will be another trip come November for another week, so hopefully I will be able to see those I saw last time plus the ones I didn't. Will make for a very busy week, but its always great to catch up with everyone.

So yeah other than a trip to the states, nothing new to report. Fairly boring life, I go to work I come home fill out job applications for other jobs in hopes I might get one that pays more and actually pertains to my degree that I spent a small fortune on, then I go to bed and get up and do the same thing all over again. Thats my life for now.....

Nothing New

Don't have anything new to report, but sort of feel as if I should give a bit of an update as its been awhile. Still working for the Cathedral, but I'm on the hunt for the better job. Still loving living in England, more so now than ever before. Things are going well, I'm happy, not wealthy, but a bit more wise or so I like to think.

Oh I'm going back to Idaho for a visit next month....

View from the Top

One of the perks of working at Canterbury Cathedral is the opportunity to take a special tour of the parts of the cathedral the general public does not get to see. It required a hard hat and a lot of stamina to climb the 200 feet to the top, but the view was well worth it. The tour was led by Heather one of the stone masons employed by the cathedral. She took us up the scaffolding on the outside of the southwest transept and showed us how much the building has shifted and the restoration taking place. From there we climbed back down, turned in our hard hats and made ascent to the top of the Bell Harry Tower. It was a long climb, but well worth it in the end. The views from the top of the cathedral were amazing. After the tower we climbed back down part way and went to where the bells are kept and were able to see the pulley system for ringing the bells in action. Loud but cool :P from there we went to the top of the Quire and saw where the organ pipes are. All in all it was a pretty amazing time.

Its Been Ages Again.....

So one would think with all the free time I have now that I'm no longer a uni student that I would be able to keep more up to date on my blog. But the truth is now that I'm not chained to my computer I don't remember to do the little things like update my blog.
So here goes what you've all missed in the last 2 months...
American Thanksgiving: I do recall I tried to post pics but stupid blogger wouldn't comply so I posted them instead on facebook. I hosted my first every thanksgiving with the help of my housemate Jenna and a friend of ours Lizzie. I roasted a turkey, peeled and mashed a billion potatoes, made sweet potatoes, stuffing and made a pumpkin pie completely from scratch! Lizzie brought roast potatoes and parsnips and Jenna made a lovely broken glass cake. All in all it was a success I would say :)

December 24th was Jenna's big 14th birthday. She had a party on the 12th since most people would be gone on the 24th, but we still had a cake and sang happy birthday on her actual birthday.

Christmas was fairly quiet, spent the day just chillin, Jenna and Zaza and I exchanged presents and then as I was feeling ill due to a cold and inner ear thingy I went back to bed for the better part of the day. Watched a few episodes of Big Bang Theory and just relaxed.
For Christmas Jenna got me an awesome fish tank for a new fish since my last one committed suicide.

Boxing day we made up for Christmas day. Jenna roasted a chicken and we had mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts as sides. Simple dinner, but very tasty. We had vanilla cupcakes that I had made for Jenna's birthday for pudding.


New Years Eve, Jenna and Zaza and I met up with some friends and brought in the new year. That leads us up to the present. I'm working on my visa application so that I can get it renewed and still working at the cathedral. Oh yeah I think I forgot to mention that. With all the free time I had I was bored and so I applied for a job at the cathedral. I work in the gift shop and the cathedral itself a few times a week. Nothing spectacular, but I do like the time I spend in the cathedral even if it is freezing cold.

Anyway, that's pretty much it and now your up to date on all that is me.
