busy!

Once again, my blogging has fallen into a Gabby-rut! I've been doing many other things, but don't post about them; for example: On May 24th, I sang a musical number with Alana playing the harp in Relief Society! But did I blog about it? NO! Instead, I posted all about Gabby turning 7 months old :) We did the hymn "For the Beauty of the Earth" and I put it into 3/4 and changed some keys and for the last verse went back to the 4/4 and back to the original key for a really grandiose effect. It was a lot of fun. Fun to use my musical talents, fun to be musical with other talented musicians :)

Today Gwamma babysat (well, really, Gwamma stayed home and Gabby napped for a few hours) while we went on another date! This is almost becoming a habit! We went and watched the Wolverine movie. It was either that or My Life in Ruins, but it was
determined that the last movie we saw in theaters was Confessions of a Shopaholic, and so today was not to be another chick-flick date. However, I loved the Wolverine movie, and I was sad it was over so soon ("soon"!) It left me wanting to re-watch all of the other X-Men movies!

Resident Managing is hitting an all-time low. Well, for me, anyway. I don't know about ALL time, but it feels pretty low. Apparently we have an 18% vacancy rate (not sure if this is Calgary, or just our company), as compared to less than 1% last summer, if I recall correctly. It doesn't help that we have a household of teenage morons living across the street, who enjoy living it up every night and puking it up all morning (read: 5am) (and loudly. outside. who goes outside to puke? stay inside!!!) And to add to all of that, I've got a new boss. Like, 5th new boss in a year. Something like that. One loses track after so many previous bosses gave in their resignations after less than a week. But I think this one is here to stay. She seems very organized, very on top of things, a little militant, probably EXACTLY what the company needs... but the first time I ever met her, I thought I was showing a suite to a prospective tenant. As in, she secret-shopped me. Apparently I did a fantastic job, but I felt a little blind-sided nonetheless. Not a great feeling. Doesn't make me love this job anymore than I already didn't. Can't wait to get a house and move away. Someday. :)

And, as you all already know, being avid readers of this blog, I've been struggling to get to bed at a decent hour. Gabby finally goes down to bed at a decent hour, slee
ps *most* of the night (she'll do 12 hrs, but she wakes up around 4/5am for a snack), but I myself have been averaging about 5 hours of sleep a night. So dumb! So on that note, it is almost eleven, and I am getting myself to bed! G'nite!

  1. secret-shopped you! ugh - that's not really cool. Good that you "passed" though. sucky that she wasted your time (I remember getting my hopes up for a showing with someone who sounded respectable just to let down). hope it starts picking up!
