Gotta love long weekends! I left the office at 5pm on the dot Friday and haven't really thought about work since. That is so great! I finished all my packing which isn't a good thing because it means I will have time on my hands later this week and will end up wanting to pack more.
The house is almost completely cleaned and I'm ready to go...just need to put in some more time. Friday is going to be a rough day at the office....I won't want to be there. LOL
Weather was decent and I made sure to get out to enjoy some of the sunshine. Hope everyone else had a great weekend.

I had been looking towards V day up until the BF decided to leave and since then I've been dreading it. The day was overall pretty good but it did start off on a down turn.
I fell down a few stairs at work. 3 or 4 of them. I was doing a good deed--I took cupcakes to work and as I was carrying them downstairs to share I fell. I bruised my knees, hurt my ankle, my hip and of course my pride. The cupcakes took a tumble in their container but survived. My container may not have survived though. It has a couple of missing pieces. Ah well. No major harm done.
The week has flown by and I was surprised to see that tomorrow is Friday. And Friday here in Alberta will be the start of the long weekend in February. I can't wait. I can have Monday to work on packing my bags and cleaning the house before I fly out Friday evening. Ah, Friday....so close.
Yes, still super duper excited. Met one of my teammates today and that got me even more excited.
The two kitties are still in the dark about my upcoming departure but they will be well looked after--of course while I am gone. I have two people scheduled to come in and see them every now and then. They will miss me but of course I will miss them too.
The weather here is up and down. This morning it was -13 and by noon it was -1. Coat this morning and no coat this afternoon. I was wearing shoes and the other people I saw around town were wearing snow boots.

Friday...yeah! There seem to be a lot of people at work who are happy that today is Friday. I guess everyone had as long a week as I did. We were under the gun to get some information in and my group did a great job. I'm so proud and happy with them for getting it in on time.
The two furry roommates are full of spit and vinegar this morning and are chasing each other around the apartment. Maybe that means the weather is going to be super nice for the weekend...maybe it means they found the cat nip I put on their new scratching post. I suspect it is the cat nip.
Two weeks today I will be heading to Edmonton and within 12 hours of my arrival in Edmonton I will be flying out on my next adventure. Ah, adventure how I seek and cherish you.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Change of plans on a number of different fronts. The BF is no longer in the picture. Yes, that is disappointing but it is what it is. I feel bad for him. He is going through a lot and I was just one more thing to think about. I'm not the least bit mad--just sad for the moment.
The other change is that I am going to publish the Vietnam trip on the other blog:
http://www.fatgirlsnoring.blogspot.com
In the long run it should be easier for me. Not sure when there will be pics but you know...whatever.
17 days and counting and yes, I'm counting. Even my assistant at work knows how many days until I go so either I am talking about it too much or she is paying attention. Either way I think it is funny.
Still planning the first week of travel. Went to a travel agent the other day and got a quote on a tour of sorts and it was a LOT of money. I called and asked if she could find a lower price for me since $132 a night in Ho Chi Minh is a lot for a hotel. Most of the other hotels we are staying at charge around $25 a night. I rarely pay that much here. Hoping that she comes back with a less expensive option for that otherwise I may not book anything and just fly by the seat of my pants so to speak.
Hope everyone is well.
