Today is today and tomorrow will is I like it or not.

So, the last 2 days have been pure hell!!!

I moved to BC for a number of reason most of all to make my wife happy. She missed it here and well as nice as Newfoundland was, fact is BC is just a little better fit. We do miss the pace of Newfoundland and how simple it was but life is not about simple.

Work, well work has its good days and some bad but like all new jobs it is a blend of what you bring to what was; to find what will be…but it is a pure hell process.
I love my job; it truly has given me an opportunity to come back to a sport to which I kind of walked away from for all the wrong reason. Now getting back into curling gives me the passion I once had for this sport. I don’t curl competitively much anymore (I think too many politics right now) but I am involved and seem to be able to make a difference.

Life is good in general but you do have to watch out for that devil which does try and make its way back into to your life.

Remember people; it was an evil Chris that was not is…..

The Recession is not over!!! YEA RIGHT!

So, as the new manager down here at the Vancouver Curling Club (www.vancouvercurlingclub.com), and yes I know that was bad to do.

We like a couple of other clubs have had a hard time getting teams to sign up for Bonspiels (curling term) or in other terms; a tournament.

I ask myself why???? If we hear on the news that this recession thing is (almost) over then why do people not want to spend a few bucks to come out to a get event regardless of the host.

Well, I guess the recession is not over and we must be more creative!

So be it!!!

The Draw of a NEW DAY...What the heck is going on!

So, today is one of those days. Nothing appears to want to go right except for my family life. Morgan is GREAT! The boys are excellent and the baby well she is kicking up a storm.

Now step outside the house or in my case roll outside and all hell breaks loose. I have no idea why people cannot or will not work together and see the bigger picture.

I heard recently that "pain is the sacrifice made for the entire good thing that happens to us."

Well, I feel the pain can I see the good stuff please....more to follow.
