So exciting!

So this is my first blog and my first entry ever! I'm ridiculously excited about it. I do have to thank my old friend, Leah for giving me the idea. It just seems like a really cool way to share and vent and communicate, etc. But you all know that because you're not blogger virgins, like I am. I'm at work right now and really should start working but setting up this blog was my first priority today.

So...for those of you who don't know me, I'm a single, working mom in Calgary. My little girl, Cassidy, is turning six in September. (Where did the last 6 years go???) She's going into grade one and is quite excited about being "the big kid in school". I guess she's tired of all those Kindergarten babies. Here's a picture of her at her ballet class. Isn't she sweet? I love this picture, she looks so angelic. And believe me, she's not. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have nothing but problems with her when she's a teenager. Oh well, I have a few years of sanity left.

I keep looking at the time ticking away on my computer and I'm starting to feel guilty. I have soooo much to do today. I work in the oil and gas industry and it's busy. But it's also a lot of fun and extremely challenging. The oil and gas industry in Alberta is just a crazy thing to be a part of these days, I recommend it to everyone! My older sister, Tara, and I actually work for the same company. I like it. I've only been with this company for 5 months, but the atmosphere is so different than anything I was used to before. It's always go, go, go. Of course, that can get awfully tiring too. I've talked to many people who just can't wait to get out of the 8-5 rat race. I'm sure I'll be one of them, but not yet. Right now, I'm enjoying being a business woman during the day and mom at night.

It's almost break time, so I'm out for now! Thx for reading!
