Entry 976

Wow we're nearly at 1000 blog entries. It's been many many years since I've started writing. I don't know if I'm stubborn or actually enjoy keeping up this blog. There aren't too many folks out that who've been at it for so long. I'm far from being the most archaic but still it's been a long time folks.

We've been spared large snowfalls as of yet here in Canadialadia. I'm still of course missing Barcelona with every fibre of my being but I'm banking on the feeling dissipating. Finding a winter jacket to buy that is a simple long black coat would be a nice thing... however proving to be ever-elusive. Surely it's not that big of a brief!!!

Minor achievement but I've managed to nearly finish all my 5 induction classes at my new gym. Of course it's all geared up for the hard sell of personal training and nutritional consulting but sadly after having your savings or lack there of used in many various ways without my consent and moving your life across the Atlantic, it's not hard to imagine not having money for such things... But i'm happy to be able to enjoy the spirit and mind lifting benefits of gym induced endorphins.

On the other hand I'm dreaming of sandy beaches and tranquility... a reward to look forward too after all this transition and hard work. For now I would just settle for a nice glass of 'real' red wine over a delicious meal with some good company. The latter however more achievable it may seem is still a few good weeks away yet... Time... I'm kicking your ass and getting closer.
