Winter/Spring

Not much new to add here.  It is technically spring, although the weather has been up and down with snow one day and nice weather the next.  It is currently snowing with about 10cm expected.  Hopefully this will be the last of the snow as the forecast looks mild over the coming week.  We got our e-bikes tuned up and are just waiting for nice weather to get out on them.  Also looking forward to hiking again and walking on the beach.  It was a particularly long winter, due in part to the fact that we didn't get away on our trip to Cuba.  I forgot how much that breaks up the winter for me, and we are now seeing everyone's trip pictures on facebook.  Hopefully, skipping this trip means that we will be able to afford a better trip in the coming year.  

Back at the office

Well, after a couple of weeks off to deal with some health issues, I am back at work.  This spring seems to be lasting forever, probably partly due to the fact that we missed out on our trip to Cuba.  I forgot how much I look forward to getting away.  I am learning that I need to have something on the horizon to look forward to.  This year, I was feeling down in December as the Christmas season is not what it used to be, so on a whim we booked Cuba for February.  This kept me motivated and moving forward for January and February, but after all of the turmoil and hassle with Sunwing and the eventual cancellation of our trip, I ended up feeling even worse than I did in December.  I seem to have worked through it now, but I am still looking for items to look forward to on the horizon.  Right now, as spring seems to go on forever with more snow expected today, I am looking forward to summer and getting outside again.  Fingers crossed.
