Beauty and the Beast

On Monday I had the privilege to bring the kids to see the Rainbow Stage's performance of "Beauty and the Beast". The show was absolutely spectacular. Everybody did a really good job, although I could have done without Maurice's singing. There were a few little misses, like a ribbon or a piece of log left behind, however the show we saw was their very first dress rehearsal, so I'm sure they have all the kinks out and have the show to absolutely perfection by now.
I do encourage you if you have a chance to definitely go and check out the show for yourself! Both Emma and Xavier were enthralled!

Crazy little life

Things have been a little hectic lately.
Our GM quit a couple weeks ago, which has made things a little chaotic. I did receive a minor promotion, but that also means more responsibilities. All in all it's good. In one week the new GM and I have together scored, so far, 5 new move-ins and possibly one more, we'll know for sure by tomorrow, that's a pretty good record. The best part of it all, is we only we 1 move-in that's a studio, the other 4 are one bedrooms!
I'm very excited about all this.
We're trying to streamline things, to make things run more smoothly, it just means a lot of work right now until what we're working on is implemented. I feel good about it though.
One little item I'm very happy about, I no longer need to wear the uniform! I get to wear my own clothes, feels so much better and the residents seem to like it too.
I will try to post more often, I've been a very bad blogger lately, but I hope to change that soon.

Take me out to the ballgame...






Yesterday the kids and I enjoyed a Goldeyes game with Ross (from L'Arche) as company. I had received some free tickets from CanadInns for the skysuite.
It was an interesting experience being in the skysuite. Too many things for the kids to get into trouble with, however a nicer place to change diapers and no line-ups to order food. Emma really seemed to enjoy it, especially the fireworks at the end, which also amazed Xavier.
Next time I would prefer an afternoon game.
