New schedule & time off

Well, starting May 1st we opened our doors to the public 7 days a week. So my work schedule for the month is totally messed up. I can't wait for June when I go to a normal two week rotation. Because I had to do the May schedule in March trying to forsee where we'd need the most staffing, it was rough...and I'm bounced all around the week. Ugggh...it's not leaving me enough time to get things done.

Other than that....I attended the huge Saltscapes Expo a couple weekends ago in Halifax. Its the big tourism expo where NS gets to promote itself. It was so much fun....mind you I was so tired of smiling all day...but, I really love the tourism industry. AND I got to meet Michael Smith, (he's a Chef with shows on the Food Network from PEI) one of my two fav chefs!!

I had my first real dinner party in my new place - 6 friends came over and we had lots of food and lots of laughs. It was great. I so love entertaining. Ok....I just love not being alone all the time. hehe! I did however spend some good alone time on my day off, Saturday working on a painting. It was my first time working on a canvas...I was so nervous....and my second time working with acrylic...so I had no idea how it would turn out. I still don't know how I feel about th piece...it's starting to grow on me, I think. Q, you know...I'm just far too critical of my own work. But....here it is....this is my first canvas piece.
