Only a 2-day weekend?

Posted on August 19, 2012 by kdarcy21

This is odd.  I only had a regular 2-day weekend this weekend.  That means that I have to work a 5-day work week this coming week.  I am not sure when the last time I did that was – sometime … Continue reading →

I’m coming home…

Posted on August 17, 2012 by kdarcy21

You know, I now consider Calgary home, so, the title of this entry may be misleading. I have booked my flight to Ontario in September.  The primary purpose of this trip is an IT Conference so the flight and my … Continue reading →

Another long weekend

Posted on August 10, 2012 by kdarcy21

The last time that I worked a 5 day work week was in the middle of July.  I have had a few 4 days weeks in there which, of course means, a long weekend.  This weekend is no exception. I … Continue reading →

Moving Downtown?

Posted on August 8, 2012 by kdarcy21

Well, I have been without a vehicle for nearly a month now.  Not a whole lot of fun really.  I like being able to get around wherever I want, whenever I want without having to follow someone else’s schedule.  Transit … Continue reading →

Back to work

Posted on August 7, 2012 by kdarcy21

Back to work this morning and back to Calgary Transit.  The transit system is a good one and it actually doesn’t take me too much longer to get downtown than when I drive, but, I hate the crowds.  The bus … Continue reading →

End of the season

Posted on August 4, 2012 by kdarcy21

I was off yesterday at noon.  A good end to the week which went by pretty quickly.  I will be going to Grande Prairie every 3 months or so.  Zeus and Blondie apparently enjoyed themselves at the “resort” I took … Continue reading →

A good week in Grande Prairie

Posted on August 2, 2012 by kdarcy21

Well, returned home from Grande Prairie this evening.  The flight was slightly delayed, boarding was 15 minutes late or so.  The GP airport is pretty small.  In the hour that I was there waiting to board, one twin prop took … Continue reading →

41, here I come…

Posted on August 1, 2012 by kdarcy21

I will be 41 one week from today.  Let’s look back at 40. Well, I left my job of 10.5 years just before I turned 40, what, 2 weeks before I guess.  So, all in all, that didn’t start well. … Continue reading →

Grande Prairie

Posted on July 31, 2012 by kdarcy21

I woke up this morning at 03:30.  Fairly early, yes.  I had my alarm set for 04:00, but, I guess I was sort of excited.  I had not been on a plane since about 1992 when I flew to California. … Continue reading →

An interesting July

Posted on July 29, 2012 by kdarcy21

Well, the last two July’s have been interesting. Last July, I left my job after 10.5 years and ended up being without a job for 9 months.  This July, I had one ex-roommate break into my place and he was … Continue reading →
