So after some time to remember the procedure I finally did upload pictures of my Cuba trip. Now I gotta go get ready for Banff!

So… it has been a long time since i have taken the time to write anything here. So what’s new? Hows about the point form version?

- We went to Vegas, it was awesome… even the part when I hit Carl the Coyote with all four tires.
- In related news my car got it’s first repair — a brand new front bumper!

- When we got back I started my new job as an Employment Consultant for people with developmental disabilities. I was right - it is challenging but it can also be the best job because you are helping people to reach their goals and you get to watch them succeed. But most of the time I am frustrated and tired. You never know what your day will bring you when you go to work; you could have one client to see the whole day… and then your phone rings and all hell breaks loose! and then you end up staying at work until 6:00 or talking on the phone all day or driving all over the country side. Or it could just be a quiet day of paperwork - you never know. I’ve been there 6 months now and I work with the best group of girls! It helps you get through the day when you have a good team to laugh it all off with.
- Side note: Still working at the westerner.

- Brad and Karin finally had Claire. She is cuter than anyone else’s niece — her and Julia are tied but we all know how cute Julia. They are 2 friggin cute kids. I’m not biased. Julia is growing up too fast. I try to see them both as much as my jobs allow.

- Thanksgiving, Christmas and all those other fabulous holidays

- Somewhere in all this the Relay For Life 2008 committee formed and took over my life. Tammy and I are doing the Media/Promotions again and were also nominated to head up the Team Recruitment & Retention sub-committee. I’m not sure if this was a good idea. We are responsible for promoting and getting teams — I hope we do alright because otherwise Relay this year might be smaller than expected.
- always keep in mind my link on the right where you can make a donation. I’d appreciate it alot because it’s basically a part time job this year and I want lots of donations to show for it! Besides the fact that it’s a great event for a a great organization! There - thats my plug

- Jana Too is still alive and swimmin’! I know you were all wondering about her. I’ve had her for like 2 years now. Does anyone know how long those fish are supposed to live? She’s a trooper, she’s been through a lot!

- On January 28th (when winter finally came and it was -40 out) Tammy and I hoped on our plane to Varadero, Cuba. We stayed for 2 weeks this year and I seriously recommend it to anyone. It is a gorgeous country with so much history. We had a great time and just when it started to get cloudy there we got on a plane and came back to Canada where our 2 weeks of brutally cold winter was over. I think next year I want to miss winter again — it was awesome.

Since I got back I’ve just been hanging out, working, doing laundry and not much else. My life is a bit on the boring side. Yeah there’s the roadtrips and the vacations and the not really knowing what my day will look like every morning but take all that away and I’m kinda bored.

I’m going to post pictures from Cuba so check it out! And don’t forget to pledge me!!!
