Yay! 7 years old! You’re practically ancient little man. Hope you have lots of fun with your friends :)

Ahh, tis good to be a full-timer. The hours are the same as what I was pulling before, but now it’s nice to know I’m getting the beneifits to match! All that time spent at work isn’t apparently in vain. Stephen, who was our assistant manager in training is now our ‘temporary’ store manager. We had a new store open up, so there was more shuffling, and upstairs got yet another new manager, and we got Steve to stay. It’s been pretty good so far, Norman has quit, and we shall miss him. He was a pretty funny guy once you got to know him.

The weather here has been simply georgeous! It’s the warmest here it’s been since we moved, and I can tell you now did I ever need the sun. After a while, the snow stops being pretty, and you wish you could wear something a little less than 4 layers. I have the sliding glass doors open and am enjoying a nice cool breeze while I sit here writing to you. I was out earlier today, doing a little shopping, and decided to walk to the malls since taking the train seemed rediculous on such a nice day. Here in Calgary you can’t waste weather like this! Unlike Victoria, here when the sun comes out it’s probably not going to stay out. I imagine we’ll have at least a couple more snowfalls before summer arrives. Ahh such is life in Calgary!

Kristen and I have discovered a very cute pottery place, and have decided we simply must go there on a quiet evening and paint some pottery. Both of us have been working like crazy and havn’t really had any ‘art time’ as I like to call it. It’s one of those places where you pay for an un-painted piece of pottery, you pay a small cover charge (for the paints and such that you use) and then you’re free to get creative! I remember doing something like that in a small place in Victoria that I think now doesn’t exist (remember the big mug with the sun in the middle mum? I did that there) and I really want to try again.

Josh is going on a snowboarding trip this weekend so the place will be quiet. Very quiet.

;) Bye for now!
