Hey guys! Just on a quick break at work, here… where I’m working a half day, and then heading out for a long weekend adventure at noon. I’m so looking forward to it! We’re heading into the BC interior (nope, not to our place in Radium, but rather Fairmont down the road, where James & [...]

Hi kids! Where do I start? I’m sitting on a beach in Roatan, Honduras! I still have to pinch myself saying that. This won’t be a long blog entry because I’m on my iPhone, and missing the beach time, so more to come from the iPad on board the Crown Princess tonight or tomorrow. The [...]

Holy crap, how did that happen? It’s day 7 on board the cruise ship Oasis, and this is our second consecutive day at sea. Now that I have some time, I’ll write about the things I couldn’t in port with limited time and battery power on my cell phone… My favourite day so far has [...]

The job itself is pretty challenging [...]

Wow… this getting up at 5:15am stuff is really hard! It’s definitely an adjustment, but I know I’ll get accustomed to it, eventually! I love my new job – I’m getting exactly the experience I need right now, and I’m working with four really great brokers. The learning curve in my new career path, combined [...]
