ACK!!!! The Really Long Update

Ok.. my trip to Canada that I was supposed to be taking in November of 2008 was postponed. I actually went to Canada on January 23rd and I had a really awesome time! I was picked up from the airport by Glen and I stayed at his place. We went to a Robert Burns Supper, and had a general all around great, fantastic, wonderful time.

Glen is totally wonderful!

I am moving to Canada at the end of this month to the first of next month. I've started packing my stuff. I really love Canada! OMG! I can't wait to see the country-side in the Spring and Summer. I'm really pushing myself hard to get up there.

So this is really something that is very exciting for me. It's logistically challenging and I admit I do have my twinges of pure unadulterated fear. But it's fear that is born mostly of the fact that I don't like taking risks. However, how does a person grow if they are not willing to take risks and jump out of their comfort zone you know? They don't. If I stayed secluded and safe, never taking risks, I would not be the woman I am today.

I stood before a crowd of 20 and read a toast before them. Something that I would never have done if I had never been part of a leads group and pushed myself to get accustomed to speaking in front of a crowd of my business peers.

So with this, I will close and I'll try not to let it go so long before my next update.
