Big News

So I have some new to share with everyone. Maybe the title of the post is a little misleading but for me it’s big news!

I found out I made it on the sub list!

I’m sure some of you out there are scratching your head going, ‘big new? I don’t understand’. Well the school board that I got on (there’s a few different board around here) they only hire 150 subs for all the schools so that means I’m more likely to get work.

This is definitely good news! Now I just need to sub and work but butt off and hopefully I can get a full-time job in the near future. It’s still going to be a few weeks before I can start working (paperwork and such) but I’m really looking forward to getting back to work.

In other news it’s starting to get very chilly here in Calgary. It was –4 this morning. With all the cold weather around here I bet you can guess what I was craving for breakfast when I woke up: Oatmeal.

In today’s pot: 1/3 cup of steel cut oats, 2/3 cup of skim milk, 1 tsp of chia seeds, 1 tsp vanilla extract (unfortunately I had no banana to add to it).

October 002

Toppings included: pumpkin butter, peanut butter, pumpkin seeds, chocolate chips and a splash of milk.

I love hot oatmeal on a cool fall morning.

After breakfast I headed to the grocery store. I had no idea what was for supper. After yesterday’s post I’m still having some difficulty pleasing both the husband and myself. While at the grocery store I picked up the new Rachael Ray magazine and came up with a perfect idea for dinner. I can’t wait to share it with you all tomorrow.

I spent some time this morning doing some blog reading and lunch became inspired by Jaime’s post and made some grilled cheese.

Cheddar and seven grain bread. Nom!

I actually followed Jaime exactly and had the grilled cheese with a side of carrots.

October 010

Don’t we all just love comfort food?

Well I’ll be back tomorrow and I’ll let you know how tonight’s dinner turned out.

The Big Announcement

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post there’s been some crazy stuff going in my life and I’m ready to fill everyone in.

First here are some hints:

So have you figured it out yet?

That’s right we are moving to Calgary. The husband got a job in Calgary starting on the first of August so we are packing up our apartment and moving out there in two weeks. We are leaving two weeks from Sunday and spending 6 nights and 7 days driving across the country.

It’s very exciting but also scary to start this new journey in our lives and I hope you all bear with me in this crazy time. I will still be trying to post everyday but you might see pictures like this…

And in a couple of weeks I will be blogging about my trip and then I’ll let you know what it’s like to get settled in a new city.

I hope to keep you all interested and will continue to try to live a healthy lifestyle during this crazy process.

Thanks again for sticking around.
