A New Addition and an update on life.

My blog has a new addition. I've created myself a travel blog to track my path as I do what I love - see the world. For now, it's limited to my camping trip last summer and the trip to Halifax in December, but it's a start. The next few months will see me adding much more to this. Likely in the form of a trip to Vegas with AlbertaGirlie, but who knows. We might make it to Austria this year instead of next.

I'm not sure I'm in a hurry to get back to Vegas right now. Don't get me wrong, it's a great place and there'd be nothing wrong with a few days spent there relaxing away from work. Basically a fantasy place in the middle of the desert, I could pretend to be whoever I want.

Right now, being me isn't such a difficult thing. I have good friends, a good job, wonderful family, and two insane cats. On the job front, things didn't pan out with the whole NS thing. Likely for the best as I'm starting to re-evaluate my position here. It's a pretty darned good job. Benefits, bonus, pension, a girl can't ask for much more at this point in her life.

Ok, maybe new shoes. It's so easy to get caught up in checking out that grass on the other side of the fence that you don't alway realize you're knee deep in the green stuff yourself. Yes, I'm disappointed about the change in plans, but for the most part, Edmonton is a better place for me right now. There are still reasons to be elsewhere, but there always will be.

Now, if only I could get the cat to stop pulling her hair out, the sun to keep shining and melting all this snow, and my body to comply with requests to get up earlier so I can catch the bus instead of driving to the train station. Life really would be that bowl of cherries so many pieces of folk art claim it to be.
