Only 8 days of work left this year!

I am really looking forward to my time off! I definitely need the break.

Not much new to report here. This week, I’ve been working really hard on the weight loss thing. I’ve been drinking 3L of water per day, I’ve been working out every night, and I have been counting everything that I’ve eaten and so far I have not gone over on points at all. I hope this works! I have 2 evenings out this weekend though, but I will use my flex points then. I have my Christmas party on Friday, which will likely involve lots of drinks since I think we’re going out afterwards. CT’s Christmas party is on Saturday, which will also involve drinking. But I think I’ll take it a little easier on Saturday. I’m thinking I will be really careful with what I eat, then I can ‘afford’ to have some drinks ;)

Can’t believe it’s less than 2 weeks until Christmas! That’s nuts! I am planning to make some mini scrapbook type things for Christmas for my Oma and CT’s mom, but I haven’t had any time yet. I’m hoping I’ll have some time to get started on them this weekend. Otherwise, it could be a last minute thing!

I am down to one month to go until I can apply for my P.Eng. That’s nuts! I’m going to get all the paperwork in order on my time off between Christmas and New Years so that in mid-January, I can mail it off. I have no idea how long it takes before I’ll hear back, I guess it likely depends on how long my references take to fill in their part. I’m hoping to hear back within a couple months though, we’ll see! I could potentially have my P.Eng. by the spring – yay! Not that it will make a huge difference for my job, just means I’ll be able to sign off on some things. And I will likely get a raise too!
