The Countdown is On

Hello Everyone,

Last night I double checked my luggage and yes, I can fit everything into carry-on with a bit of room to spare. All my liquids were checked for size and I had all the new guidelines printed off for reference. So, I'm feeling a lot more reassured now.

And relaxed.

I've run out of jasmine tea so Jerry's now giving me Tetley "Sooth" herbal tea. And I'll admit it's pretty good at calming my nerves and stomach. Work stuff to wrap up, studying for exam, getting house clean, getting ready for trip...

Coursework is all done and as long as I pass the exam (required), I'll have a nice mark in the course. Really didn't learn too much except that I like database stuff. It makes sense to me. So I have my study notes to look over and that's about all I can do until Saturday.

Exciting news - I won a contest! Trip for 4 to Castle Mountain for one day of cat skiing and one day of regular skiing plus accommodations. So, I spoke with the reps and I'm giving the cat skiing to Jerry for his birthday. That way him and three friends can go play in the back country while I happily use the ski passes for a weekend of easier snowboarding at the resort. They giggled like little school girls when I told them. lol

Have a good day!

For Your Laughing Pleasure

3/4 done course

Hello Everyone,

I just finished up part 3 of my course so I just have PowerPoint left. Exam on the 12th. I actually enjoyed my Access section. It has changed a lot since I last took a course and this one wasn't nearly as in depth. A lot more user-friendly. And databases make sense to me.

So, if I stay on track, PowerPoint will be finished on Sunday and I'll have the week to study.

My bridal shower was on Saturday so I drove down to Lethbridge for the day. Small gathering but it was nice to meet a few more of Jerry's relatives. And yes, they made me wear the stupid hat covered in bows.

Packing is coming along. I'm gathering everything and throwing it in a box. Next week, I'll start real packing. Got my final hair cut and it's something that's soft but easy to style.

I was all giddy yesterday since I got to switch my calendar at work. Getting excited!

Weather was nasty cold for about a week (high -20C) but broke yesterday afternoon. Today is high of 3C. Crazy weather jumps.

The guys are kidnapping Jerry for the weekend for his bachelor party. I don't think anything is planned for me but I may get together with friends for a school break.
