Yes I am Alive

Well I am almost halfway done my 3 months up here so decided it would be good to update on whats been up.
 I left Fredericton on March 8 and got to Mcpherson on March 9. Since then I have been busy. The first two weeks the boss was away so I was acting manager as soon as I got here. That wasnt to bad although I had to get a few reminders on how to do some of the paperwork. Alot of people back here were happy I was back. They missed me I guess. So work has been steady. The store was way overstocked when I came and needed to be straightened out as there was lots to do. I think now we are finally getting caught up and the grocery shelfs looking good. Other then working I have played some bingo and cards every now and then. I did manage to win 1 Bingo game lol.
 So I am just starting to look around and see what opportunities are out there for June when my contract ends here. I am not sure if it will be extended or what so its good to be prepared in any case.
 The weather was good when I got here but was cold all of last week. Now its back to being warm again. I notice now it is light out until after 11 or so. The ice road will be out soon and then we will be isolated here for 6 to 8 weeks. Once that is done it will be time for me to come home or go to work somewhere else.
  There is going to be a federal election in a few weeks in case u didnt know. Thats all I will say bout that.
Well it is 1230 here so I guess that will wrap up this update. I promise to be more frequent with my updates from now on. Peace
