February

It's February. Which means it's still cold as hell in the morning when I leave for work, but almost all the snow has melted. It was a really frigid winter. My dad claimed that it disproved that "global warming nonsense," so that's fun.

This winter was uneventful. Black Friday was rough, but it seemed less chaotic than last year. Probably because it was my second time around, ya know? Christmas seemed to come and go. Uncle Dan and Aunt BB were out of town so there were only five of us. Mom and Dad enjoyed having a smaller group, but I didn't. Christmas to me means being surrounded by a lot of people. We don't do anything with the Paradis' anymore, and the Gaudette family group seems to dwindle every year. It's sad, driving around after Christmas and seeing all the lights up. For a brief second I got all excited until I remembered that it had already come and passed.

I got "promoted" (kind of, not really) at work last month. The new position has its ups and downs. It's sort of stressful at times because it is all independent work and if I screw up, there's nobody to fall back on. Luckily, there's a couple people I can ask questions to. Everyone seems really excited for me. I just hope I made the right decision. I don't want to let anyone down.
