Alright. Time for a confession.
Anyone who knows me very well knows that I'm not a country-music-loving girl! Ask me what my favourite type of music is and I'll answer 'everything but country'. I'd prefer a little AC/DC over Shania any day!
Well ....
Times are a-changing!
My new job is at a rock radio station, and a country radio station. Part of my job is to obviously know what I'm selling, so I have to listen to both stations.
Well ....
I now find myself switching over to the country station with more regularity than I do to the rock station! WOW! Either my horizons are broadening, or I'm becoming older. I am, after all, well into the 25-54 demographic as opposed to 18-34. For all my media/advertising friends, you know how shocking of a revelation this can be!
So ... for now, I'm a little bit country. A little big rock 'n roll. And a bit of everything in between!
PS - SNOW IN THE FORECAST FOR TONIGHT AND TOMORROW!!!! I'LL BE PEEKING OUTSIDE ALL NIGHT TO SEE IF WE'RE GETTING ANY OF THE WHITE STUFF. I CAN'T WAIT!!! :)

A Dull Roar
Phew. It's been a busy month!!
Ryan and his dad arrived safe and sound with all of our stuff on October 6th. My boss VERY nicely gave me the rest of the afternoon off so I could head home and help get things organized. We were fortunate to have one of my cousins come to help unload the truck (thanks Ben!)
Mom brought Easton and Audrey and the rest of her crew down to see Ryan and check the place out (there was MUCH excitement). We were also VERY thankful that she saved us from an otherwise inevitable pizza dinner, and brought a crockpot with chili AND homemade buns and cookies!!
The next few days were full of work, and unpacking as quickly as we could! By Saturday, things were somewhat where they needed to be. Ryan's dad flew out on Saturday (also Miss Audrey's 1st birthday!), and that night Audrey became a big girl ... no more breast feeding, and no more being rescued at night!! We sleep with a fan on in our room, so I didn't really even hear her if/when she was up!
One week after Ryan arrived, I left him and the kids for a sales conference at a GORGEOUS resort just outside of Vernon, BC. I left the Thursday morning and came home the Sunday evening, and am happy to report that everyone lived. It was great to get away and meet other people in the company, and SO nice to live in luxury (and I DO mean luxury!!) for a few nights. The resort is Sparkling Hill ... check it out (http://www.sparklinghill.com/). AH-MAY-ZING!!!
This weekend has been more relaxing ... unpacked a couple more boxes and organized things a little bit better. Slowly, but surely, we're settling into HOME!
The leaves are mostly gone from the trees now, and soon we will be having our first snow fall - I know it! And I can't wait!!!
Away I go ... settling deeper into a dull roar ....
