I want a new laptop. Deciding between a Mac Air and a Macbook Pro. Or whatever they’re calling them these days.

Work is great these days. Karl seems to be grooming me for more of a management position. I only am able to get about 8 hours of actual work done a week – cutting material, installing material – the rest of the time I am running from jobsite to jobsite (I am managing 4 currently – Nuba, Balsam, 40th, 16th), meeting with and talking with subtrades, and assigning work to labourers and carpenters. It’s satisfying work and I seem to be alright at it.

I talked to Karl about the prospect of pursuing the Bachelor of Techniology in COnstruction Management Program at BCIT. He advised that he would hire someone with 10 years experience in construciton management over someone who took a program. I understand that. I am still going to write a recomendation letter for him to authorize for my meeting with the program director.

Carrie and I had a huge fight all last weekend. The dust has settled since and everything feel sgood again. The circumstances of our quarrels are never the important part. Last week it was about money, that i hadn’t told her how much money I owe in taxes. Also, that I didn’t get up with Rowan Sunday morning. Either way, she scared me more than she ever had. She yelled and physicually threatened me. It was terrifying. In the immediate aftermath, I felt so sad. I was sure that our relationship would never last. I hated that I would end up comprimising my wants and my security so that Rowan could have a mom and dad. I wouldn’t leave her no matter how bad it got between Carrie and I.

I just love Rowan so much. She is such a good girl. and she is growing so fast. She can sit on her playmat for as long as she wants. She’s p[laying with her toys, watching Dinosaur Train, babbling. She’s on solid foods now. Her hair is coming in curly!
