Nope, I did not fall off the face of the planet…

Well, Christmas was good and bad...Christmas was kind of hard this year with the breakup from my wife Marianne, but it was good to be with my family, got some neat stuff, and got to hang with my nephews and nieces.

I went to Carrot River (my hometown) on the 23rd…had new years eve service with my family, ate, ate some more, got some presents, ate some more, had Christmas with my family, ate some more, and visited with my brothers, nephews, and various other relatives.

Spent the night at my brother Kel’s place and got to spend some more time with my nephews playing Toy Story 2 on the computer, and playing Lego, slot cars, and trains with my nephews Caleb, and Jonathan…very cool…Left Carrot River on the 28th…

I was going to go to Winnipeg before I went out to Carrot River but ended up going right after. Marianne's mom and dad invited me for supper on the 29th, so I left Carrot River on the 28th, drove to 'Toon town, ended up snagged at work, came home at 6:00, washed clothes, and then at midnight was back on the road without any sleep :) When I got to Winnipeg I was up for 24 hours...by the time I got to sleep I had been up for a lot more than that…I have a new appreciation for "health drinks" namely Monster, Full Throttle, and Rockstar...I drank a LOT of those...when I got down there, I had supper with the in-laws and a sort of after Christmas with my sister and nieces in law, as well as my in-laws mom and dad…the next day had breakfast with my buddy Dean who came to the Lord after I did from Thompson as well and hung out with him for the day. Was great to see where he works, went to the Winnipeg library (just had to check my hotmail), and got to go to a real neat Jamaican Restaurant. I drove out to and spent the rest of the day and slept the night out at Marianne's mom and dad's place 1/2 hour from Winnipeg, then the next day had brunch with my friend Dean, went to a hockey game with my buddy him and his family, (His boy was playing) hmmm...then came back to his place for supper…we watched Team Canada beat the US...then I spent the new year eve with Chuck Sheridan and Bondslave MC...got to meet a lot of the brothers there...spent the night at Dean’s place…then went to church with Chuck Sheridan at the Zion Apostolic Church where I ran into a girl from my hometown (weird huh?) named Carrie who was a childhood friend. Our parents were good friends as well. Wild to see her married with kids…we went out for a Chinese buffet, and then I went for tea with my sister in law, and then I drove back late yesterday afternoon...arrived early this morning.

Hard to believe I put on over 2000 kilometers this holiday…but it was worth every minute…

I ended up staying a little longer than I had planned, but as my roommate says “Its all Good”...so now I am back and start work tomorrow..."SIGH" oh well...all part of the process of life I guess...can’t wait till next year!

I just need a holiday from my holiday now…
