It's been a couple of long months since I've written anything new, though a lot has happened. I'm always on Jason to write more in his blog seeing as I enjoy reading his musings so much. I've been back to work since mid February and enjoying it much more than I used to. I had my annual performance review and the results put things into perspective for me. Our new manager has empowered me to be a better supervisor and showed me exactly where my weakness' are and where I need to improve. I'm focusing daily on these issues and feel renewed in the meantime.
The wintery weather is behind us finally. This turn always makes me feel positive knowing I'll be able to get outside and get on my bike again. I'm walking to work as much as possible and have started my seedlings for my so called garden. This year I'm trying my hand at leeks, tomatoes, for the first time, and of course the usual basil and parsley, which are easy to grow.
Jason and I are finally back on track financially. He started working for VMWare in October of 2004 with a good salary and local office here in Burlington. I didn't realise how much I worried about finances until I didn't have to worry anymore. Jason is a different person too. He's much more relaxed and we have fun together again.
I knew everything would eventually work out just fine. I always try to stay positive in my thinking. It helps.
My 42nd birthday is just around the corner. How time flies! I can't help but thinking my life is half over, if I'm lucky that is. Where did it all go? I want to do so much more in my life. I don't feel my age. That's a good thing people tell me. Still no gray hair, all my teeth, no hearing devices, only missing one organ. My eyes are going though. It's got to start somewhere, I guess. Gravity has definitely taken it's toll on my body. I've conceded to knowing I will never be the same size as I was in high school. But I try to eat right and get enough exercise and that's what's important.
