What's up Laura? I got back from good 'ol Army training, glad to be home. But as soon as I got to my unit I found out I go to Iraq in September '09...Wooo. How have you been?
Congrats on getting through the training. Bet you're a changed man for the better. Still the same old Mav on VN though.

Sept. 09 is still quite a while off, situation could be drastically different by then. Hopefully for the better.
I'm slowly getting back a normal life. I've been back to work for 2 weeks, and I'm wiped out. Feels like I'm learning a brand new job, plus relearning my old job. So much has changed as you can imagine.
Plus I have a new man in my life and I'm already thinking about relocation. Craziness.
I'm learning more and more how much the medical world sucks in 'medicare' land. It's free, but good luck accessing it, because you're faced with year long + waits. Dealing with TMJ/Trigeminal Neuralgia and MS, I asked my doctor today about seeing a pain specialist. She laughed and told me the one (there's only 1) available in Moncton has a 2-3 year wait. Her and my neuro both basically encouraged illegally obtaining and smoking marijuana (which is legal here IF you are approved for medical use of it, which both agree I probably WOULD be... but I have to see the pain specialist to get the forms to even apply for it).
RANT OFF.
So yeah, I may move south here soon. I'd be living my lovely Tim Hortons behind though, which is a tough call.

We'll see how things play out.
