Merry Christmas All!

Where do I begin...

Let's start with the boys. Jason came home for Christmas. He's excited about his new job. He had accepted the position of professor at the Augustana Campus of the U of A in Camrose. He starts July 1, but doesn't move there until mid-August. Shelley, his fiance, will complete her internship in Ottawa by the end of July. She's being helped by the Dean of Augustana in finding a job in Camrose. Their wedding maybe in the fall of 09 or the summer of '10, in Regina!
Scott is still in England. He's off school now until January, so the 3 of them, have decided to go to Paris for Xmas! Hmmmmm, I wish I could be there with him... They're planning to hit all the touristy spots, plus take a boat ride down the Seine, nice! His classes are going well he tells us and he's not complaining about the length of year too much (done mid July). He's looking forward to backpacking Europe next fall.
Debbie is still a secretary at Rosemont School, but she's talked about retiring in '13 and then sub for awhile after that. She's really enjoying her hobbies of scrap booking and greeting card making. She's taken over a spare bedroom for all of her 'stuff'.
Me... I'm still at the airport, but not for long. The job has been interfering with my social life, so it must go! My last day will be on the 27th of Dec. I've said that I will still do the occasional escort duty, only if during the day shift and I'll be back for the summer, as there will be plenty of escort and relief for holidays. Deb spends much of the summer at Manitou, so I will work pretty much full time and more for them. My new job is days only and not as many either, because I've decided to go back subbing. 6 days subbing equals to 13 days at the airport. I've subbed 3 days already in Dec. and it wasn't all that bad. I'm sure that I will get at least that much or more for Jan, Feb and March. I'm still into photography and I have a chance to do 3 wedding this year.

Merry Christmas and may 2009 bless you with good fortune!
