Hoppy Easter everybunny!!

Okay, first week of the new job completed.  So far I've worked 4 days and have 4 days off.  Then I'll work 10 days and have 10 days off.  I'm thinkin' this is a good gig!!   Can we continue on this pattern for the next 18 months??  Yup...18 months, not a year.  The contract has already been extended.  Go figure.

We've had a few treats over Easter.  One worth noting is an ice cream called Egg Hunt.  It kind of tastes like someone put the Easter Bunny in a blender...quite sweet.  And it's yellow and purple colouring with little chocolate Easter eggs only adds to the sweetness.  And, of course, it wouldn't be Easter w/o a few Easter Creme Eggs...they're my favourites.  Well, those and Cadbury Mini Eggs...I like them too!  Okay, okay, I like just about anything that involves chocolate....Easter or not.  But tomorrow....back on the diet....I hope! 

WHAT I LEARNED THIS WEEK:  I learned a couple of things this week.  First off, you appreciate time off more when you work then when you're retired.  For the year I was off, everyday seemed like Groundhog Day...but now that I'm back at work, I couldn't wait to have that 4 days off.  I really appreciate the time off now.  And secondly...I learned I don't like rapini.  I've been reading that it's just a wonder vegetable...but, alas, I've tried it, but don't like it.  Too bitter for me.  Yuck!  Back to broccoli I go.
