It's July long weekend. Tomorrow is Canada Day, but Monday is vacation day. I enjoy my job working fashion, but one thing I really am looking forward to at some point in my future is actually having my weekends available to take that little extra needed time off (at the same time as other people). People are headed out to the lake to relax, enjoy the sun, and be free of all cares. I will stick around and work.
Today all I can think about are hot dogs over the fire, s'mores every night before bed, sitting on the edge of the lake just watching the water, aimlessly drifting along in a canoe...
My sister and brother-in-law moved away from Winnipeg yesterday. It makes me a whole lot of sad because now both of my sisters are on polar opposite ends of the continent (Anchorage and now Toronto). It's tough to see your best friends living so far away, but at the same time you are happy for them because they are young, married, childless and living a life of opportunity! I am super excited to begin my adventure with my top notch best friend whom I get to marry in 105 days (yes, I have a countdown on my phone). I'm daydreaming about when I'm married and I'll actually have weekends to spend with my guy and spontaneously take off to relaxation nation.

First off - I love this picture
second - working jobs where you have to work weekends sucks, but only because your friends often won't have to. What I must say is nice, is that you can run errands during the week, which for the rest of us is the worst.
I am really sad that I'm not experiencing the canadian long weekend this year too. We always go to our friends cottage the first of july and I'm so bummed that I'm not there. All I want is bbq.
You will have fun soon enough...you can just have many other adventures, which don't sound as glam but can be just as fun!
Wahh- that's rotten about your sister moving away. Selfishly I'm hoping this will turn into you and Dal taken a couple roadtrips out this way... maybe stopping off in London-town? Hope you get some time off in the near future to s'mores it up!
