Maybe it's time for a new post....

Well, my attempt at blogging again begins...again! The only excuse I really have for the absence is a lack of time... and the fact that we are no longer on a Swiss adventure! That just seems a little more exciting ;) Life has been just crazy. It goes in waves - if I stay on top of everything and get enough sleep, I always find a way to plow through. But every now and then, I fall behind, have some short nights and then it feels like I'm drowning. That's when I have a small mental break-down! Me on little sleep is quite a grumpy version of myself.
But we're all busy in one way or another, maybe it's just that I need to find a balance and a way of dealing with my day to day.

Last week Ben and I went on a trip to Saskatchewan. It was a bit of a blur. We flew to Medicine hat then drove to Rocanville for a video shoot Ben was doing. It was fun tagging along, being his shadow and going on a crazy helicopter ride. It reminded me of our year in Europe. Not so much the helicopter part as just following Ben doing his work. I love seeing him in action. He is so confident and professional dealing with clients. It's such a contrast from the crazy after work Ben that I see the most often.

After that we spent a couple days in Frontier/Consul. My sister didn't know we were coming so it was so much fun to surprise her and see the boys. I still cannot believe my baby sister has 3 babies! They are all so much fun.

It was nice to get away to breathe again and catch up on some much needed sanity and alone time together.

Coming back to work after a week away can be brutal, but this week was great as I trained a lady to fill-in for me and 'float' things a bit. That sure made a difference - I am hoping to have her again for my Christmas holidays.

Well, I hope everyone is well! Look for another post soon.... ;)
