blur

My life is a blur again at the moment. I'm so busy. There's some cool things coming up at work, that's taking some time, I'm busy catching up with friends, it's hard to get us all together these days and then put Christmas shopping on top and sheesh!

Friday Ryan and I went out with Vecima people and then Ryan had free tickets to go see Great Big Sea. It was an awesome concert, we had box seats, they were really good. I felt a little like a poser, I don't know Great Big Sea's songs well enough and the audience could sing them all. We both really enjoyed the Acapella songs, it was fabulous for a free concert. Lots of family visiting was done this weekend, my parents were up for the weekend.

I've started swimming regularly again. I try to hit the pool every tuesday and thursday. Man do I get sore the next day though! My times are pretty slow at the moment, but they tend to bounce back pretty quick.

I've made a resolution to myself that I will make my lunch every day this month. No more eating out for lunches. Alot of the time I end up grabbing fast food or a grocery store special which is high in salt and fat. Plus I want to have some extra money this Christmas. It's expensive eating out every day. An added benefit is that all the weight I lost in Vegas won't come back. I get so entrapped in work some days that I literally don't move for 6 hours. Since we have an open office concept, I get really good at blocking things out like conversations, noise, lunch time etc. I'm really bad for it. And I notice it in weight. Plus I'm going to Mexico in less than 8 weeks now and I want to look like my amazing self in a bathing suit the whole time. :)

It's hard to believe that that vacation is coming up so quick. Vegas was just here, then I'm taking a week and a bit off at Christmas time, which I think is mostly planned out now. Hooray travel! I think I'm going to keep an eye out for seat sales to Vancouver for May and June. I really really want to hike the west coast trail, and I know I wouldn't have to twist Ryan's arm to come with. I've got the hang of this vacation thing now, if I book the flight, I will go ;) I've just got to stop over-analyzing everything. Also I want to shove a bunch of money aside to go to Europe either at the end of next year or the beginning of the next. A hiking trip in between will be perfect :)

Well I think I've rambled on here enough for now, I've had enough of this sitting in front of a computer on Sunday night thing...
