Home and an adventure begins

Been home from Edmonton a little over 24 hours and still don't think I have completley recovered. Got sent there for the Managers meeting last week....overwhelming and educational at the same time. Met some really great people, had some good laughs and learned lots. Now the task begins of coaching and managing a great team. I look forward to it and am also a little timid. Have lots of great ideas for the store and my team, just hope I can do it!
Took my camera to Edmotnon with intention of taking a few pics...however this is the only one i took from my hotel room :) There is actually still snow on the ground and the river is frozen!


Hit me this morning that I am done school on Wednesday...and I mean done done! Except for final exams i am done my undergrad. Just need to balance these last few weeks with studying and trying to work 40 hours a week! Feels kinda strange that I won't be going back in September but look forward to what the year will bring. Will start the process of applying for my Masters at the end of the summer!

Completely Overwhelmed

It's 8:34 pm and I'm on my fourth cup of coffee/tea for the day and trying desperatly to stay awake for a few more hours....however all my body wants to do is SLEEP...

Have to admit that this is the week from hell! Only wish there were more hours in the day to get it all done. Have two midterms (which happen to be HUGE) on Wednesday followed by a HUGE research paper due on Thursday which has not been started and probably won't until Wednesday nite after my exam (sigh). Looks like another all nighter will be required. Feeling completely bogged down and drained, starting to get sick and trying to still get my runs in (at least that is somewhat of a stress relief). Can't wait until friday comes :) , however still have a ways to go!
