Music // What I'm Listening To.


I was young so I forgot
Which was my place and which was not
Thought I had a good shot
I took it right in my eye

Look ahead, look behind
Take another, I don't mind
I, oh, I, oh

Follow the signs right back to you
Back to you, back to you
I know they wind right back to you
Back to you

Lest We Forget.

Today we remember and honor those who have dedicated their lives to military service for their country. The 21 gun salute echoed throughout the sky this morning and was followed by a flyover in honour of fallen soldiers. 

Both my grandpa (photo below) and grandma served their countries in World War II - he was a soldier and she was a nurse. Both were fortunate to survive the war. They passed away almost ten years ago and every year, on this day, November 11th, I always think about them.

Reflecting.


It's been a long, but good week.! 

This week was my first week working at only one employer. Part of me misses having afternoon's off, but a bigger part of me is thrilled to have more than one day off each week.

Initially I was worried that maybe I made the wrong decision, but looking back on this past week, I am very happy with the decision I have made. I love my job and the people I work with. I also think that working where I am at, may open a few new doors down the road, and that is huge. 

Linking up with the Totally Awesome Blog Hop.
