This last few weeks have been full of ups and downs, little moments were we are happy and then ones were we aren't.

.

The Ups

• The weather is warming up.
• At work things are going well for me. I have been promoted and awarded a nice pay rise.
• Out of the blue we had a call from a friend of a friend and apparently Wendy is connected to University of NB and comes to Fredericton every other year! Isnt that weird we never knew. Anyway she took us out for a drink and she has alot of connections here so we had a great night in the pub and connected with some local people.
• The work on the basement is progressing well to create our fourth bedroom mainly for guests.  It has to be ready for June 21st when our first visitors arrive.
• Kathryn and Gemma are both enjoying the Pony Club and seem to be picking up. Gemma is getting more friends at school.

Downs

• Julie is feeling more homesick than ever, and to add to this she feels like the girls are growing up fast and don't really need her anymore. It doesnt help when I am so happy here.
• Kathryn still doesn't have any friends as such and she too is feeling homesick.
• I will be working in Toronto for the next few months (just when I didnt want to be away) working on the implementation of Client Registry for Cancer Care Ontario. 50 Hospitals in four months ..... of course everyone tells me its impossible and that just makes me more determined.

We need to get out more and do things.
