I woke up this morning at 6am and ran 5.5 km.  I was part of a group of 4 running.  This will continue.  This is very different from my normal “wake up at 7:45 and scramble to get to work on time” routine.   There was a time in my life when I woke up that early almost every day.  That time is starting again.

I went to the dentist yesterday for the first time in over 10 years.  I didn’t go to the dentist for 10 years, for no good reason really.  My teeth were mostly healthy, all things considered. However.. I will be getting my wisdom teeth pulled and getting a root canal done on a tooth that is dead at the roots.  Ouch!  Can’t wait!

2 more weeks of bowling and I am peaking at the right time.  In the last 2 weeks, I have bowled games of 227 and 231 (separate nights).  I find I bowl the best after I have worked out.

I am working out pretty regularly.  My favourite activity is the clean and jerk.  I started with 100 pounds, I moved up quickly to 110, and now I am clean and jerking 140.  I plan to continue increasing this.

Here is a photo from a recent field trip.

When buying a house, hopefully the first year is the hardest.

So far, I have no complaints.  I love home ownership.  It is coming up on 1 year that I made my offer and the wheels started turning towards me moving in to this place.  I think it was a great buy, and realistically I haven’t put much work in to it, but I still find it very liveable.  I think this is a good thing!

And to top it all off, I had my first visitors this past Sunday.  My neighbours and fellow volunteer firefighters from home, Jeramy and Calvin.  They were in Sioux Lookout and decided to come to Dryden to pick up some chinese food for dinner.  It was great to see them!

If anyone else would like to visit, please do so!

That seems to be where the most water is coming in.  About a cup full after all of the thaw.

Until we meet again!

 

I’ve owned a blackberry for a year and a half. I have taken at least 220 photos with it. Tonight, I decided to take those photos and put them in a flickr album. You may browse the results here.
