record setting day in the prairies ...

guess what i did today?

washed windows!!!!

earliest ever ...

it was 20C ... so i went for a walk afterwards ... talk about smiling faces everywhere ... and bikes ... and mom’s pushing strollers ... and t-shirts instead of parkas ... ? ... manitoba? in march? ? ? ?

we even set a record yesterday for the earliest day the thermometer reached 20C/68F in the 140 years that records have been kept in this area ...

first day at my new job ...

my first day at the library went very very quickly! and i enjoyed myself a whole bunch!!

unfortunately, i did wake up at 2 a.m. this morning - reviewing all the things i had learned and thinking of questions to ask on thursday when i go back to work ... i guess the old brain doesn't log off the same way you can end computer programs! :o? this will be my learning curve ... plus i am working more hours this first week - for training purposes ...

it was fun tho'!!!! i hope that enjoyment continues for most days ... i just want all the blessings, don't i? i DO HOPE/PRAY that i will be a blessing to those i meet and work with!

salt mines in the park

I thought i'd post a few scenes from my "work" place ... taken today ... even though i don't have my desk on the beach - it is wonderful to be able to enjoy scenery like this ... as you can see - the trees are yet to bud - even without the vibrant greenery, the area is still beautiful ... to view the pics closer, just click on them and they will open up ...

the winds of change continue to blow gently and persistently in our little world ...

what now, you ask ... well - i will be calling it a day re working at the salt mines in the park ... i plan on handing in my notice next week ... i will work this month and then spend the summer here at condo central with my sweetie ...

i don't know why this is the time ... i just know it is ...

i wonder what lies just around the corner? i wonder?

We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity. Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. The need for solitude and quietness was never greater than it is today.
