Lots of stuff

Well I started my caching streak on Feb 14th and I'm still going.. so I'm in my longest streak 12 days!!! before that was in Halifax for 10 days.. and end that with the longest cache-to-cache on one day 954 km.. A great way to end a streak!!

I don't know how long I will go, I'm going for the 100 days cache but if I get this job extended then I might as well go for 365 (but I could end on Feb 29th because next year is a leap year..maybe that will be my goal!).

As for the job, things are going great.. I am alone at nights (or after 8-9 pm..) so I hope nothing goes wrong.. like two nights ago, a patient wasn't agreeing so I had to turn on the machine and remeasure it and it still didn't agree!! I didn't know what to do so I just left it.. but I was there for an extra 2 hrs..

And yesterday, man am I silly.. I left the machine on!! I had to take the bus back to the centre to turn it off.. an extra bus fare and 2 hrs of my night gone! As I've said before, you usually learn from your mistakes!!

And I'm on the downhill path from my pushups!! my app says 46 days left.. I was thinking maybe doing another 100 challenge after that.. sit-ups? 150 pushups? 5 km walks?

Speaking of walks, I did 8 kms down Yonge st on Tuesday. I should have worn my hiking shoes not winter boots.. and not picked up some groceries!! Anyway.. I picked up a cache and say a few neat places to eat! I am planning on doing the same walk on Monday.. this time with my hiking shoes! (I hope there isn't too much snow!)

New Job

So the new job is great. I have been training for the passed two days and it has been nice to see how it's done. By Feb 22nd I have to be able to do this on my own (I'm replacing a woman who is on leave for 6-months and the other woman is going home for 2-weeks). So I have to take lots of notes and hope for the best!!

Last night I was watching Phil and there was a case where the dose wasn't agreeing so he had to do some additional tests, not too hard but I hope to be able to pick up on some of this stuff quick so I can do my own troubleshooting before calling people!!

I'll post more of a description when I get more comfortable with my place in the process!

As for my push-ups, I have 62 days left and I have 75 left for today, things are on track!!

I will start another challenge maybe next Monday, 100-days of caching. I am waiting until I have a TTC pass so I don't only go after the close ones first, so I can save those for a storm day. Also I can explore the city at the same time.

If anyone has great places to go and see let me know!

Nothing short of perfect..

Thats what I can say about the amount of blogging I do!!

Summer was laid back.. maybe too laid back. I'm still looking for a job.

I worked banquet stuff and made some money but nothing more promising.

Bluesfest was good, but I would have liked to see more of the shows.. There was a new tent, the Mill St Brew Pub, and we had the food for it. Deep Fried Pickles, Sweet Potato fries, Chicken Wings and Pretzel. The first three were great! the Pretzel not so much..

But by the end of the festival, I think the bosses were thinking a no go for next year. Mainly because they didn't do any advertising!!

I have not cached as much I have wanted!!!! I did get one great day out with Mike doing the CHL series about 2 days before it was removed so I'm very glad about that.

Daryl and I were discussing placing a few caches on the PPJ near Shawville, a great rail to trail but There was 125 caches placed on it last week.. Oh well, guess we have 125 new caches to find!!

I have been looking at my stats for various challenge caches, and I also have started to write a marco. The challenge caches are just looking back at what I found when, etc.. The marco is for a challenge cache, http://coord.info/GC28F5K. You have to find 5 different caches which are 'islands'. At the time of finding those caches, there can't be another cache within 3 miles. Not that hard to program when you think about it, I guess..

Next time I'll break it down and maybe someone can help!
