So it's been nearly 2 years since I have been able to motivate myself to keep up entries, but I made a New Year's resolution to write at least one entry a week - if only to remind myself what a rollercoaster ride living in Bermuda has been.

We're in Canada right now (yes, I'm crazy, but I really wanted to give Rod a birthday present that would really mean something - a party with his family) just outside Bonnyville, Alberta. We went from 18 degrees in Bermuda to MINUS THIRTY TWO FREAKIN' DEGREES.

Needless to say, we're not spending much time outside.

I do apologize for any of my family members who are reading this and wondering why didn't I tell them we were coming through Edmonton. Long story short, this weekend (and it is just a weekend) is for Rod, and I wanted him to be able to spend as much time as possible with his family - which meant forgoing the trip to Calgary to see you. We will be home in the summer, and will be able to spend time then.

Right after we get back to Bermuda from this trip, I have 1 day at home before I'm off on a buying trip with my boss, Dawn.

We are flying to the UK, to 2 shows in Birmingham. After 5 days there, we fly via Amsterdam to Nuremberg, Germany for another show there. All in all, I will be gone for 16 days, so I want to blog about that as well.

More later (and yes, Steph, there will be more later and it won't take 2 years to do it)
