February 1

Well...it's a new month. January went by fairly quickly. Lots going on.

Graham's team played Port Williams in Bball yesterday and they got creamed. The coaches from PW were a little intense, their players were good for sure. I told Graham that the sign of a good player is not how he wins a game, but how he loses Connor played hockey and his team did not do their best so it was a one sided affair also. Elysia's soccer was an off weekend for some reason again but next Sat she has two games.

We went to watch a soccer game today. One of Elysia's friends Adam, made the U14 boys tier 1 this winter...what a good game, it's so fast.

Mike has a few friends over for Superbowl, chili and wings...yeah, throw some beer in that...those are not mating scents to say the least.

So work has been interesting. I am attempting to do the year end...we have made some great changes over the last while but I think the owners expect that to show in the numbers in the first month...one didn't want to talk about it on a Friday afternoon...okay, so stick your head in the sand for the weekend. I even worked at it a little today and I cannot make it look any better. They told me they want me to "own" the inventory, I really don't think they want that. I told them that someone could park their truck outside the door and load up and they probably wouldn't know the difference....any time they have discrepancies they just adjust the inventory...Agh! I gave them my ideas about how it should be handled...we'll see how that goes over and then how long it will last.

I have to take our financials to the accountants, I wonder if it would be obvious if I slipped my resume in there in between the balance sheet and income stmt. A girl can always try.

I am going to take my birthday off. I have to, I turn 39! As you recall, last year when I hit the big 4-0, I decided that I would start working my way backwards from now on, so 39 it is! Josee and I are going to go to Halifax for the day. I need some retail therapy...

Heard of this great website the other day...okay, so I admit, it was on Oprah...anyway, it's the largest on line shoe store~http://canada.zappos.com/ I ordered red Sketcher sneakers for Mike to give me for my birthday. I know he would want me to have something I liked...:)
