10 Months In

Yesterday marked 10 months here in "the knife". Summer is slowly fading and I'm told to expect the first frost in the next week or so. I'm not looking forward to the loooooooooong winter but I'm happy to know it will be our last Arctic winter. There are so many downfalls to living here that they outweigh my mighty salary. We're planning on moving in 14 months.

I could go on and list all the things that have happened since my last post but that would be tedious and dull. I will say that life here is pretty routine. We did manage a wonderful trip to Vancouver and Calgary at the end of May and a short weekend trip to Edmonton beginning of July. We will go back to Ontario for Christmas.

Well, back to the routine.

The Decade that was....

2008 has arrived and with it, the last few months of my twenties. The entire first decade of my adult life has come and gone and I can't help but reflect on how that time was used. At times it seemed it would never end and now that the last few moments are trickling away, I'm satisfied with my accomplishments.

Even though 30 seems like an age I should be dreading, what with more grey hair and a slowed metabolism inevitable, the changes that will occur that aren't visible should be worth it.

Onward
