Happy New Year
Hey everybody,
One week in to January and, keeping up with the pace of life out here, many things are new and different again. Though one thing does promise to stay the same : it's still bloody cold and likely to get colder. It also continues to snow. Man...
Bonnie and I went for our mutual Christmas present on Wednesday: dog sledding! yes! i said dog sledding! Man was it great. We took a lot of pictures, but they're all on a disposable camera and so haven't been able to develop and upload them yet. Something to look forward to in any case.
I made my biggest mistake yet in terms of work today too (or so I think). I didn't do the beer order correctly and so we are now extremely low in terms of what we have stocked and I'm working towards and early delivery date. Ack! Hopefully we make it through the weekend. My boss just kinda smirked and shook his head. Otherwise, things are going quite well I think.
I haven't gone skiing in 2 weeks now. We're just finishing up the busiest time of the season and I didn't feel like going and waiting in lines. A few days ago Sunshine had a line of parked cars over 5km long. I'm not sure why you'd even go at that point. Not only are you waiting obscenely long to get on the lifts, but you have to dodge people all the way down. Sounds crappy. Looking forward to getting out there again.
Bonnie and I had a surprise for New Years. As it turns out, I finished my work that originally needed doing after close on new Years Eve in the morning, and so was able to take the night off. I drove in to Cochrane and surprised her, and then managed to squeak the 2 of us and her parents into a nice little cafe for a phenomenal New Years dinner full of great food and conversation.
On the bad news side, Rowan and I aren't going to be able to stay in the place we're in now. The landlord needs to let people on the waiting list take the room when the lease is up in February (we're currently subletting) instead of us. Makes sense - some people have been waiting nearly a year to get in here. Moving is just so annoying.

Sorry to hear you have to move. What about the little downstairs apt you looked at? Looking forward to my trip out to see you, but shouldn't I be thinking about going someplace warm at this time of year??? Next time you go looking for a job thousands of miles away, maybe you pick someplace warmer.
love
mom
