Today is my oldest sister's birthday. It's crazy to think how grown up we all are and how far we have gone in life. Candice is probably going to soon be a world traveler, living in the water permanently. She has come so far in 9 years. Leaving home right after high school to move 16 hours away in a new province, 4 years of University and a year in Bible school. I admire her spirit and motivation to do so many great things. She will always be my oldest sister and I love her lots. I'm wishing her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY on here and hoping she reads it but I did also text her this morning. It sounds like she is going to have a fantastic birthday party in Saskatoon at Grandma's house and visiting with the relatives.
On a different note. I have some recent exciting news since life has been pretty boring lately. A new position became available at work this week. Kristi, who used to be the receptionist about a year ago, is leaving Viking and her position is Payroll and Accounting Assistant. When I arrived on Thursday morning, Leona told me about the position and thought it would be great. She said she knows I'm a hard worker so she thought it would be a good position for me. I am going to leave my resume and cover letter with Gary (recruitment officer) today, and hopefully get the full time position. I am really excited because it will be something new, I'll sit upstairs, and I will more than likely get paid more money. Especially since it would be a full-time position and then benefits as well. One bad thing about it, is that Viking is in the process of moving people/offices around this month and someone that I would want to see more often is finally moving downstairs...but if I get this job I will be upstairs. This just isn't fair!!!! It is also still a drive to work but i am used to it by now, I will make more money so that wouldn't be an issue, and I still stay in Sidney almost everyday after work so I couldn't ever imagine working in Victoria because I would never feel like visiting. I will have to announce if i get the position or not. But I am just excited for something different and apparently there is alot of work to it, so I will always be busy. Can't complain with that. No more blogging or e-mailing though....maybe on a slow day. We will see how things go.
This week has been very good. I have been hanging out with some new friends all week after work. Jason is gone on the weekends and goes hunting so that means I never have plans. Emmy is also busy this weekend, and my landlords are gone all weekend. So my plan is to get laundry and necessary cleaning done tonight or tomorrow morning and then just chillax for the rest of the weekend. i don't know of any Super Bowl parties yet but I feel like I want to go out. Maybe meet some new people or something. We will see how energetic I actually am when the time comes.
Well I just got an assignment dropped off at my desk and I should get that done soon. Mail will be here after that so at least today will go by fast. Ya'll have a great day now!!
Ciao
