I got the call this morning that I got the job at CasinoNB!  Woo hoo!  I’m so excited.  I had applied for a few different departments, but the sorting room was the one I wanted most, and that’s the one I got!  That’s friggin awesome!  I don’t start for a couple of weeks, because I have to get my gaming license first.  That’s all good, I’ve been enjoying my time off. hehe

I also went to the first Muddy River Rollers roller derby practice last night. It was awesome!  A lot of girls, including me, didn’t have our skates yet, so we watched, but it was still fun.  My skates are on the way, and as of this morning are at the sorting facility in Dieppe. So, I will get them tomorrow then.  And all I can say is that it better not be raining tomorrow.  I’ve got all my other gear, except for elbow and knee pads. Gonna go pick those up today. My helmet is SO cool! I’ll post pics when I get my skates and get geared up.

Dad and Rob put in our new front window this weekend. Dad had bought it for us the Christmas before last (awesome Xmas pressie!), and it’s been sitting in my garage for over a year.  It’s nice to finally have it in. The old window was just one huge pane of glass, where this one has a big pane in the middle, then 2 smaller windows on either side that slide up (for L&A of course).  We’ve just gotta get trim for it, and a sill. Once we install and stain those, then I will just need to touch up the paint around the window.  Rob want’s to get new curtains (I know! The BEST husband ever, right? LOL), so maybe we’ll go to Wicker Emporium today to have a peek.

Thursday Rob and I went to Rothesay and Saint John.  We went to a beautiful restaurant called Suwanna.  I found them on a restaurant app on my BB, searching for Thai food (we were in the mood for it).  So, we went there, and it was in a gorgeous big old house.  We walk in, and the first thing they say is “Do you have reservations?” hehe  We lucked out and got a table right away because there was a no-show.  The waitress was so fantastic!  We were totally under-dressed, in t-shirts and jeans, but she treated us like any of the other diners. Kudos to her!  We started with Sour Coconut Soup, which was awesome! I’m going to attempt to make my own, found a recipe on allrecipes!  I had Cashew Chicken, and Rob had Green Bean Stirfry (mine was way yummier).  We also had chocolate cheesecake for dessert, and it was SO rich. It compared to the Eggnog Cheesecake at St Jame’s Gate here in Moncton. And trust me, I know my cheesecakes.

So, this afternoon Rob and I are oot and aboot.  We need to get a new mailbox, as ours was destroyed in the window installation. LOL.  I’ve gotta pick up knee and elbow pads, and go to Costco and get my new glasses adjusted.  I’ve been wearing them a week, and they’re not fitting quite right.  A few other things too, so busy busy afternoon!
