Snow all gone :(

Well after my last post we did have another day or 2 of snow. It was so cool! :) It was really light and powdery, not like any crappy snow you'd get at home ;) It's all gone now though, and it's been mostly raining, and surprisingly warm(-ish), the last while.

Well Denise is back tonight! She, on the other hand, had LOADS of snow where she was, in Vernon!! And she was freezing! The dote going around in all weathers for work; well, she has to keep me somehow ;)

I got a job doing security for the Olympics :) Doing training on the 6th and 7th of Jan., and the jobs start on the 22nd of Jan., but I might not neccessarily be starting that day. I think I'll get my schedule after training. I'm delighted though! The pay and benefits are so much better than where I am now! It'll be fun! :) ...So if any of ye are planning on coming over to see any of the Games in Van, just let me know and I'll work my newly acquired magic ;)

In the place that I'm in, they took on 3 seasonal staff, yours truely being one of them. We knew starting that they would probably be keeping one of us full-time after Christmas. Today the manager offered the position to me...HA!! I so knew I'd get that offer! Mostly coz I'm so much better and cooler than the other 2 they hired. :P Won't be taking it though, since I got the Olympic thing, which is so much better pay. I'm working straight through to Christmas day now. And Stephen's Day :(

Not much other newsies methinks. We both got some parcels from home, which was exciting :) I haven't opened mine yet. I don't know am I just waiting for Denise to get home, or for Christmas morning :P But a huge thank you to those who sent parcels and cards for Christmas. We really do appreciate them so much. Thank you so much. xx

Bought some Christmas lights too, so at least the place looks slightly festive :) Sent Christmas cards and stuff to family during the week, so hopefully anyone I sent them to will get them before Christmas...or in the case of home, before the 29th! ;)

That's all I can think of for now. I'm going to shtick the kittle on for Denisheen!

Hugs to all,
Denise & Jo xXx

  1. Snows not all gone here. Took me 2 hours yesterday to go 2 miles, could have wlked it quicker. Stay warm. We are off to Wales tomorrow; weather permitting. Hope Santa will find ye in the cold and so far away, did ye remember to write and tell him where you were going.
    Love & Hugs; Ed & Kay xxxx
