Rainy Days And Sunny Days

Hello Earthlings! Yes, you are all from Earth so you are Earthlings. Well, except you Deidre. We still don’t know what you are. Anywho, Welcome to my blog.

I hope you enjoyed Leo’s rendition of blog time. If not, fear not! He expressed that he would not like to have the responsibility ever again to write a whole blog himself. So that means you are stuck with me for the rest of eternity!!! Or at least until you close this page and never open it up again. Whichever comes first. From now on he will only be co-writing blogs with me. I hope you enjoyed both the videos we had on the last plog bost :)

I would like to warn all you who do not know about European cars. If you ever become tempted to buy a Renault, be warned!! They are famous for their electrical problems. Leo’s car is a Renault and it is probably the quirkiest car I’ve ever been in. Randomly the lights in the dashboard stop working, including the lights that give the milage and open door signal. The other day it was so lovely outside I rolled the window down only to have it not go back up. So as the sun was going down we drove on the motorway with one window down for most of the trip. Luckily I had my coat so it wasn’t too bad, plus we got the window up after Leo’s pee break (I’m telling ya, small bladder!!). Now you have been warned!!!!

Very few interesting things happen these days. Something interesting that happened back home was fake Easter. I hope all of you had a good fake Easter. When Leo heard about how a certain someone was canceling Easter(you can’t cancel Easter!!! I don’t care how many times you fell in the sewer, you’re still not entitled to “cancel Easter”!!!) he got the idea for this video. I hope that you all enjoy it. Click here for the video.

I hope everyone had a good real Easter as well. Here in Ireland, we didn’t do much to celebrate Easter. We also had a mix of fake easter and real easter. Leo found his basket on Friday. I went to church on Sunday and when Leo got home we had our egg war and Leo have me a chocolate egg. It was good but nothing like home. Oh, and I won our egg roll :D






Last week was good. It’s been slowly getting warmer and a little bit more sun these days. One day last week it was sunny all day!!! I couldn’t believe it either! The days it’s been nice and Leo’s been off work, we’ve gone hiking in different places. Ravensdale, Rostrevor, and Dùn an Rí is where we’ve been to recently. At Rostrevor he showed me the bike trail he rode in his race last year for the World Fire and Police Games. It’s a pretty gnarly track but I think my mom could handle it. With her nerves of steel there’s not much she can’t do. I mean, not everyone makes it to the top of Angels Landing. 



Dùn an Rí was a nice forest. Leo said it was the first time in his life he’s paid to get into a forest but I think it was well worth the five euro. Pictures are here. The cool ones at the end were taken by Leo.

As I was writing this, I got my documents I mailed off to immigrations earlier this month. That’s the good news, that they were so quick this time around. The bad news is that they want more documents. Previously they wanted documents listing his benefit claims but since he doesn’t work down here in the south he doesn’t have any. Now they want documentation from down here saying that he doesn’t have any benefit claims. They also want a letter proving he has private medical insurance down here. Maybe it's just be but that’s really redundant because he works for the north where, being apart of the UK, they provide you with medical insurance. They know he already has insurance that would cover him but they want him to get insurance down here as well. A super pain in the butt :( Not much we can do though. 

Yippie skippy!! 9 days until my parents come for a visit!!! :D I can hardly wait!!! :D :D :D

Leo has recently become a Grimm-aholic. I’m being as supportive as I can because let’s face it there are worse things to be addicted to than awesome butt-kicking adventures and creatures. I know it’s no Pushing Daisies, Hannibal, or Sherlock but it is still a good 40 mins.



The other day Leo and I went for a walk to the gas station down the road to top up on this internet dongle we bought. It’s a little device that give us internet where ever we are as long as it has cell service. Anyway, on the way there I noticed people looking at us and leo had called some people dicks because he said they were looking at us funny. He didn’t say it to their faces though I’m sure he would have said it to their face if they weren’t on the other side of the street. I told him that it was probably because they thought we were guy. He said probably but he didn’t care. (you can thank me for cleaning up the language later ) About halfway back to our place some little boy steps out of his house just as we walk by and asks (keep in mind I have my sweatshirt off and am wearing one of my Perry the platypus shirts which, I personally don't think are baggy or super boyish but maybe that's just me) and asks, “Are you a boy?” I turned around and asked, “Am I a boy?” “Yes.” “That would be a negative,” I replied and continued walking away. Leo busted up laughing and exclaimed, “The cheek of some people!!” The whole way home I noticed people looking at us funny. I guess I should give this sports bra a 5 star rating for keeping me tucked in so well I look flat chested.

I have recently been looking into the process we will have to go through to get Leo a green card which led me to a phone call with a paralegal in California. Not surprisingly it seems like it is going to be a much longer and more expensive process than what I am doing right now to become an EU citizen, so I guess I should really moan to loudly. In any case it does sound do-able :)

I found this picture of me with long hair the other day and thought I'd poise a question for you all to vote on at the poll just to the left of this post(it's near the top, for those of you who cannot locate the poll). 




I have been volunteering once a week at Ravensdale Equestrian Lodge which has been a good way for me to keep occupied and entertained. The owner has been super awesome about getting me on horses and having lessons for my time down there, which he doesn’t have to do but does anyway. It’s really nice to be around horses and occasionally hop up on one :) I’ll have to take pictures at some point.

Not much but so is life :) I miss you all and hope well you all are!!!

Home Remedy For A Hangover


This will be an interesting post for all use Yankees over there in the us of A.
Ok, so let me start a very wonderful post wrote by the little lad leo. Yes, you sure read that right Leo is writing this whole blog post and don't let that put you off reading as we switched roles. Kaiya is making a few videos for this blog, this one should give use a right ole laugh this video called words should have use pissing your pants or close too it!!!! and i don't mean what use call pants as to us here in Ireland pants mean under wear not TROUSERS. words video

So since the last blog post i got pulled over by the peelers or truffle hunters (police) or how i seen it ecilop (if use are spanners, that’s police backwards). I was pulled in for speeding but i wasn't speeding as such as i was sitting about 1 or two kph under the speed limit but the police see it as speeding for me as i have retard driver status or politically correct Restricted. That means I'm not legally aloud to drive faster than 45mph and have to display on the front and rear windscreen a big red capital R so other drivers know I'm a new driver or could potentially cause accidents as I'm what authorities call a non-experienced driver. HOW DARE THEY.. Although no formal ticket or points on my license. I just got a wee slap on the wrist and told to just play the legal game. Then the cops got called to another incident aww freedom. Back on the road again. 

We took a wee trip to Ards to visit my grans for a wee bit after Mother's Day (yep its on a different day here). Turns out she was in hospital after collapsing in a shop having a good ole Ulster fry for lunch. The docs could not say what caused it but it sure wasn't that fry as its the best food of all time!!!!! Sorry to tell yas all that......IM NOT SORRY AT ALL 

So while on that there wee trip up we decided to go for a fun walk at Nendrum monastic site sorta on the other side of Strangford Lough.  it has some kinda ties in with vikings and raids and such, but lucky for the irish the currents of that lough killed loads of vikings and smashed there ships but some got through. So we looked at the ruins of this ole place and looked at various things from the ruined thick walls like it was built like a battle castle but nope a religious stronghold of the drunk monks and well i guess i forgot the name of the thing its tells the time.. OH yes its the sun dial which told them the times they had to pray with weird symbols and such. I tell ya use mormons are lucky not needing to pray as much as these guys did poor souls they had over like nine times a day to pray and such lucky for those drunken monks and thanks to the vikings for providing or helping us have some nice ruins to visit and see and to get a flying squirrel attack me. AKA The Misses Don't forget to see the pictures and you will see..............Scary when she want to be..........This is not a good time to look behind you................................behin behin behi beh.........F**** Click here for pictures.

As i was writing this blog iv deleted so much and so many times to write nice almost legible english  but iv come to realisation it doesn't suit the irish at all. Then my second though was this is the hardest challenge on not offending anyone in the world, but then i thought no matter what being nice or really offensive i will not have happy campers in any which way i go about writing…so well most who know me well could guess what i was going to write but those leprechauns kidnapped and held me ransom until they make this blog so offensive or something. I will do my best to fight those little drunk feckers away from this ipad. 

So for all of you unsuspecting lads out there, don't go in the woods with out some teaspoons and maybe for a little bit of extra protection. A big bore .50cal long ranger preferably. If you go into the woods today you'll be in for a big surprise. They’re not bears ya gotta watch for.. they’re called cockadoos. Trust me Iv seen these creatures up close and personal. They’re scary. The only way to deal with them is with teaspoons because they would not expect you to have one nor will they see it coming. After all you would in a split second have it stuck in the unsuspecting creatures  eyes and be pooping out there eyeballs. Then feeding them it and hopefully it fecking chokes. If that fails you need to knock it out, tie it to a tree, and wait until it comes around again. Go to your car, syphon out a whack of petrol, pour it over the creature, ignite with any ignition source handy, stand back, watch, and listen to the sweet tones of the creature burning. Don't put it out let the mother F**ker burn out and make sure its dead by a shot of a .50 to its head only once the fire dies out...TAKE THIS AS A WARNING LADS. Don't say i didn't warn use..........Don't come crying to me if you see or hear these dreadful creatures just remember the teaspoons and you will be fine. 

This part is for my own entertainment Puffins Piles of puffins. Enjoy decrypting that and good luck with that. My wee mini Hitler will get this wont you dearest? And nope i didn't call you Margaret thatcher. Not just yet dearest. Hehe arnt i an evil one. I'm glad iv hidden that 666 tattoo in under all my hair... now don't be going into my village with pitchforks and torches of fire my village is already missing their idiot. They cant loose there eejit that would ruin balance of village life, and it will surely spur on the end of the world a lot quicker and I'm not a convert yet so hold on. Please. 

IF ANY OF THIS HAS BEEN OFFENSIVE PLEASE CONTACT SOMEONE WHO CARES ( DISCLAIMER if i get complained to il smile and make you even more mad how tragic)  

So you have decided to read on, thats good keep going. You may miss something important just bear with it. Well at least you made it this far and got through because now heres the bit you all wanted to read well maybe.....>  Marriage is good craic hard at times but by golly its worth it  that little ball and chain of mine is the best shes super great. Thanks Brad and Karcie!!!

I think iv wrote quite abit but haven't really told yee all about it yet but just know its been great craic. On the next blog your normal author will have taken back the reins and will fill you in with all the missing details of what should have been here.

BONUS FOR YOU GUYS ENJOY THIS A MATE WROTE THIS AND I BECAME A THIEF ENJOY
maybe you noticed that Rhode Island colorado and a couple of other states recently enacted new statuses simultaneously that both legalized gay marriage and decriminalized the possession of small amounts of weed (Mary j). This makes perfect sense in the light of the text in Leviticus 20:13 “If a man shall lay with another man as with a woman then the shall be stoned…” ——> we have just never properly understood it.
