I just got a laptop and cell phone from work, so that is exciting. Free laptop and cell phone, can’t beat that! My laptop is a dell and is a widescreen, so I like it a lot. Since I got wireless internet at home, I am going to take my laptop home this weekend and see if I can get on the wireless internet from my living room, or out on the back deck... man, that sounds nice!
I am now fourth in line at my company in terms of seniority. Pretty wild considering I have only been here a little over 2 years. It’s pretty common in the consulting world to have a high turnover, so that’s how I got to be number 4, most of the people ahead of me have left. I don’t think I’ll be leaving anytime soon though, I still love it and I want to stay at least until I get my P.Eng., which is about a year to a year and a half away.
So here we are at another Friday. Things are progressing at my house. My entranceway and upstairs hall now have the first coat of paint up, and it looks amazing! I had my painters back to do that yesterday. I’m glad I got them to do it, because they do a really professional job. They are gone now for a few weeks on vacation, but I am going to see if they can come back for a day when they are back in town mid-July to finish the entranceway and hall.
This weekend and next weekend, my goal is to get the guest room done. I’m doing it in a Toronto Maple Leafs theme, so I got the official team colours paint from Home Depot. It will look so good! Exciting stuff. I want to have it all ready in full leafs form for when lj comes to stay with me the weekend of July 8-9 for the tri. I likely have to be a spectator for that one since my hip flexor is still giving me grief. I have a doctor’s appointment on Monday, so I will mention it to her and see if she can offer any advice.
Tomorrow, I am in the dragonboat races in town. It will be my third year participating in them and I’m sure it will be a fun day. A really good cause too; it is to raise money for breast cancer research. It’s supposed to be pretty warm and sunny tomorrow, so I guess I better remember to wear sunscreen! Looking forward to the day of fun in the sun.

How were the dragonboat races?
The Dragonboat races went really well. We improved since last year - big time! Last year, we placed 21st out of 24 teams in our division, this year we were 15th out of 24. Not bad at all for a bunch of old ladies (my grandmother's hiking group). It was a fun day all around.
