much ado about nothing ...

i went online to sign up for my next course and to my surprise, the program now requires 10 courses to be completed for certification, instead of 8!  i thought i was half way through the program but apparently i'm only 40% there.  they've added a whisky course and a 30-hr practical experience requirement.  so does this mean pudgy is going to be serving wine at a restaurant in the near future?  hmm ..

my vacation plans are shaping up.  slowly but surely.  my schedule is pretty packed so far ..  i don't even know if i will have time to see a couple of friends who want to drive up from Vancouver.  i must say that i am very grateful (and blessed) for all the help and suggestions that others have given me.  i went from "i have no idea what to do or see" .. to .. "omg, is there enough time to do all of this that i want to do?!" in just a matter of days.
