It's About Time!

I apologize profusely for my lack of updates. Sometimes thinking about making a post gives me a sick feeling in my stomache. I'm not sure why. It's very weird. I've had that since Christmas. Eventually I just have to plow through and do it.
So, what have I been doing so since last time? Well at work we began preparing for the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. This was going to be our grand unveiling so we wanted the product to look as good as possible. This has made work extremely busy. The CES show is on this week and we finally have a website that actually gives information. Check it out.
I had been hoping to take a week off at Christmas but because we were so busy I was not able to, so I only had Christmas Day and Boxing Day off. On top of that, working long hours began to take its toll and I been getting sick the Friday before Christmas. I spent the long weekend with one of the worst colds I'd ever had. I felt pretty out of it the whole time. I recovered on Boxing Day, just in time to go back to work the next day. :(
Other than that unpleasantness, the Christmas weekend was pretty fun. We spent it moving from family to family and dinner to dinner so we didn't really get to spend a large amount of time with anyone, but the time we did have was enjoyable. Because of all the running around we didn't make it to the Christmas Eve service. That made it feel less like Christmas. I think next year we will try harder to make it. When I went back to work, Kris stayed with her family but ended up getting really sick so she couldn't enjoy it much.
For New Years this year we just stayed at home to relax. At midnight everybody in the buildings around us started yelling and hooting. It was rather interesting having a New Years in the city with thousands of people we don't know. I always find it funny how excited people get about New Years. To me it just feels like the last year.
So after New Years things got even busier at work. I ended up having to work for a few hours on Saturday and Sunday too which was not pleasant. This week has been better. One highlight from Saturday was going to the Flames game with Dad, Corey and Nate. It was quite entertaining. I realize that I miss watching hockey with my family. For me hockey has always been a sort of social event. I enjoy it more when I can watch it with someone and discuss it with them. This weekend Calgary vs Edmonton is on CBC. I believe that game is "must watch".
