It is a lazy Sunday that followed a lazy Saturday.  On Friday night, I went out in Prince Albert for Roxanne's Birthday.  She turned a whole 20 years old!  No longer a teenager or can she say she is 20teen? 
Anywhos....Other than going out on Friday, I did absolutely nothing all weekend.  I stayed home all day yesterday and looks like I will be doing the exact same thing today.  It's wonderful! I will be leaving for Saskatoon tommorow morning and I think I will be taking my Sarcan with me.  I have a meeting there for 2 days and Roxanne will be flying off to Vancouver on Tuesday afternoon.  Hopefully, I can meet her there next month *crosses her fingers*  That would just be awesome!  Lets see the magic work that Linda (the new Kokom-to-be) can do with da boss =)

As for my personal life, it is at a standstill. Currently, with my new job and my crazy schedule, I rarely have time for anything! I am phoning my friends while I am on the road because that seems like the only time I have. I know this "meeting after meeting" routine will be slowing down soon, but until then my friends .. TEXT ME or email me on my Blackberry .. My wonderful, beautiful BlackBerry. Sorry, I don't mean to sound like I am bragging or flaunting my cellphone, but I really do love my BlackBerry.

happy winter...

I woke up bright and early this Saturday morning to a blanket of snow on the ground .. Happy Winter, I thought!! I WAS going to start my spring cleaning this weekend. Never mind that. I shall go to a BBQ instead.

I have two new addictions. First, is my Blackberry. The boss and I did chip'ins to purchase it and I found my heart. My heart is in the blackberry. I love it. Absolutely love it. Today is actually the first day, since I recieved it two weeks ago, that it has been turned off for more than 12 hours. Who knew there was an OFF button??!! My other addiction is my other new toy. I now have a laptop, courtesy of the band. Technically, its not mine, but will be in my possession for the next 3 years. So yeah, its mine. I need help from a geeks-r-us kinda person. I wanna know how to work the software for my blackberry. It is all installed and connected, but just don't know the how-to. I also need Adobe-Acrobat. I wanna make pdf files. I think that is all for now.

I should start getting ready. Turn on the Blackberry... I miss it.

loving my stapler...

I have a new job. After seven years working at the Health Centre, I been seconded over to the Band Office. I am now the Executive Assistant for the Chief. It is a different enviroment. Different people. A different pace. It is, how do I say .... different. I still have to help the Health Centre train the people that will be taking over my job duties. There are two people doing my job and if you count the Health Director taking over my supervisory duties for the time being. That would be three. Three people to do my job! Wow. I was awesome. Maybe if I were getting paid a higher wage, I would have stayed. No, probably not. I needed change desperately.

Change I needed. Change I got! I have been stupidly busy these past two weeks that I don't even have to time to think. I am absolutely loving it and scared at the same time! At the Health Centre, I knew the programs inside out. I knew what I was doing and was excellent in my job. I been working at the band office for around 2.5 weeks and I don't know where anything is. The phones never stop ringing, requests flying in, people wandering into my office, going to meeting after meeting. I have a million and a half things needing to get done at any time of the day. Its been a whirlwind! I still have to go pack up my old office, take down my pictures, steal a couple more items. After a couple years of not getting a raise. I sure showed them! I stole my stapler. Muahahahah.
