Okay, okay, I get the point

I’m still alive Niki, I have not been lost or anything like that. Just BUSY!

Since my last update:
- Arash wrote and passed the citizenship exam
- A’s aunt came to visit Canada, my sister Kate came down from northern Ontario
- Had Jones/Fard family BBQ with 30 guests!!!
- Had Muslim wedding ceremony (I may or may not have had swine flu at that time)
- Visited Niagara Falls
- Visited Dad’s and went to the beach
- Had a Job in Woodstock (Yay!)
- Got a flat tire at said jobsite and needed to replace two tires on my car - $350. Boo!
- Niki visited with Logan and James
- Went to the zoo
- Visited with A’s grandparents
- Visited Quinn and Rod
- Went camping with other sister and family
- Arash’s grandparents went home
- Underpinned the foundation of a school in Sarnia while doing a tank pull (oops! Actually, the engineers all agree that it wasn’t my fault, I did everything by the book)
- Visited Keely and EK in TO. Went to ROM and stayed the night
- Went to Parry Sound for work
- Saw the old supervisor in Parry Sound (he is well)
- dog stitting Ellie (sister’s dog)
- Started studying for PPE.

It’s been a busy summer so far and it is going to stay busy for a while
July 24 – Sarah, Wes, Eddie, and Sally coming for dinner on their way back home and to pick up Ellie.
July 25 – HP!
July 26-30 – Up in Mattawa for work
July 31 – Arash gets his citizenship!!!
August 1-3 – Trip to C-dub’s cottage
August 4-8 – cramming for PPE while working long hours in Sarnia
August 8 – PPE in London than BBQ with A’s friends in KW
August 9 – Shower for my cousin’s fiancé.

After the 9th though it should slow down. We don’t have any plans for the 15/16 or 22/23. I might do another tri on the 30th of Aug. I have Plantar Fasciitis right now so it will depend on how quickly I can start running again. Marathon this fall is likely off. I will still sign up for IM in November, and just work a lot on biking and swimming in the meantime.

I have a couple of slower days in the office right now since I was rushing to get everything done last week before I had to go up to Parry Sound. It is nice, but on the other hand I am a little bored and this day is dragging on and on and on…
