Well.. lets see.. It's currently Good Friday.. I'm not sure what this means to you.. but to me it means spending the day at home with the kids while my parents, and wife are out visiting and studying.. SO I 'm trying to think of things to keep them busy while I slack off and try to get things done around the house.. so no not really slack off..
My sinuses are really bothering me.. I've consistently over the last oh.. year woken up every day clogged and breathing through my nose has been next to impossible without some sort of medication or Nose Spray.. Which I know just damages it more over a prolonged period of time.. I wish I could say it was from an allergy or I was sick.. but sadly it's just an inherited problem from my Dad.. We just have shitty Sinuses.. SO I'm going to have to seek some medical way of fixing this little issue.. mainly because I hate mouth breathers.. and I have no interest in becoming one.
Lets see... Oh I'm finished school once again so I'm a 4th Year Electrical Apprentice.. However.. with all the UofA courses I've finished up.. I interviewed for a Project Coordinator position at the company I currently work for.. and I got it.. I still have several more courses before I get the Official Construction Administration Certificate but I'll be finishing those up over the next two semesters and I'll be getting my J/man ticket and will move into a Project Manager position around the same time. Long Term goal is to be 100% off the tools in the next year.
Wife and Kids... Well lets see.. My wife writes her Finals this week and thus brings her education to an close. Well kinda.. she has to write a Board Exam and then continues on with some more UofA courses in Orthodontics. We are coming up to our 3rd Anniversary in June and are hoping to spend some good Family time up at the Lake Lot this year. I dunno what I did in a past life but I got incredibly lucky when we got together. I couldn't have asked for a more supportive, kind, hard working woman. She has helped me in so many different ways that I couldn't even begin to list them here.. Lets just say I'm Better now.. The kids.. Breanna is 7 and is finishing up Grade 2 this year and is involved in Gymnastics and Soccer.. I've seen her grow up over the last 3.5 years into a Kind, caring little girl.. Easton is 4 and is he is also in Gymnastics.. I am just starting to be able to do things with him mainly because I had no idea what to do with a little kid.. The adoption process with these Two is complete and I am officially their Dad now.. Justin is 2.5 and he is well.. a Boy.. he trashes thing.. Hits.. Yells.. and is talking a ton.. Not everything makes sense and he mixes up things like"Now" and "Please" but we correct him.. My dad and I took them all out Ice Fishing a couple times over the winter.. They had fun.. and I got a bunch of pictures..
Running.. I ran several times over the winter but I don't think I actually got "Into" it as much as I probably should have.. I can totally feel the difference of when I'm Running and Not Running as my Knees start to Ache when I'm not running.. Seems strange in my head to think.. that being active causes me no pain.. But when I'm not active I start to ache.. So anyways.. I have signed up for several Trail Runs over the Summer and have committed myself to attempting a Solo Attempt at the DeathRace in 2012. The runs this Summer are the 16-18km 5 Peaks series.. there are 5 of them and 1 Half Marathon.. One a month Starting shit.. Next Weekend.. So I had better get out several times over the next week to loosen up my legs. It's a relatively easy Run.. but it's at night so.. headlamps and tripping.. All good.. Also.. I plan on videoing and doing a training vlog on Youtube for the DeathRace so that'll be my newest project..
