So I found my blog again. Lost it for over a year, LOL! But life has been so busy that it was too much to keep up with anyhow. Living in Calgary is so great, we love the city and all it has to offer.

From the parks, restaurants, friendly people, proximity to the mountains, and great airfare rates out of here, we couldn't have picked a better place to live. Now we don't live in the best neighbourhood but that will come.

Work has been hectic. Constant set-ups in May and my Assistant Manager helping out another store. I've been training 2 assistant managers and 5 new staff and it has been very draining. My DSM has been just handing me application after application to follow up on as well. But Jess, my assistant manager, is back officially on Monday and it should be a bit less hectic then. She's only here for a week before going on vacation but I'm taking advantage of it and taking a four day weekend for a breather next week. I plan on scrapping, taking pictures and just hanging out. I'll be going to Crossfield to meet up with Melissa to watch her boys at a soccer tournament on Saturday and then we'll probably hang out that night.

I've got 3 fresh rolls of film and it's supposed to be good weather so I think I'm going to brave the C-train and go downtown and go picture happy with some of the sculptures and parks and neat things that are there. Randy loves downtowns so it'll be a fun project to maybe make him a mini album.

I'm debating taking a part time job to earn some extra cash for some of the 'extras' that don't make it into our new tighter budget. I really, really want my digital Canon SLR this year and before we go to Utah. I think it's down to around $800 now, about what we paid for my Film SLR. If I can't though I still have my film one that takes fantastic pictures.

We've been going to the gym regularily and are getting comfortable with the new place. It's the Village Square leisure center. It has a wave pool, weight room, class rooms, big gym for sports, ice rink, and library all under one roof. So far we've been doing cardio, I've done a little weight lifting and we go swimming and to the hot tub every time. Looking to lose some serious weight but am approaching it carefully. I can't overdo it with my high blood pressure. I overdid it a bit the other day and ended up with a screaming headache and I was so dizzy I had to sit down. So I'll be toning it down a little bit. Also with all the set-ups at work I can't afford to have really sore muscles, it's hard to haul shelves and clothing if you can't lift your arms, LOL!

I've beome a bit addicted to facebook lately. It sure has brought me in touch with some old friends! I'm hoping to catch up with some others that I haven't seen since high school. I added them today, so we'll see if they feel the same, LOL!

Other than that, I'm loving our new ad campaign for work, if you haven't seen it then you are seriously missing out. Check it out here: http://www.reitmans.com/en/fashionreviews/ You can click around to see various things. Armand and Albert are hilarious though and they even do some internal staff things as well.

Took some random pics the other day, here are some of them: apparently I'm stupid cause they all go to the top of the page. Alas, that is all I have patience to figure out today!

Tata for now,

Wanda
