Summer!!
It has been such a long time since I wrote. I can't believe my last post was in April. So many things has happened since!
First let me start by our Euro trip. It was amazing. We flew to Amsterdam stayed there for 2 days, where I met my childhood friends, then we flew to Barcelona and stayed there for 4 days. There I met my cousin and had a blast night with her and her friend. Afterwards we took a train from Barcelona to Montpelier, a city South of France and met with Pishi's cousins and then rented a car and drove to many cities across Mediterranean Sea such as Marcelle, Nice, Cannes, Saint- Tropez, Annonay. We then drove North to Paris. We spent a week in France and flue back to Toronto. The scenery, Architecture and people were amazing. We did some shopping and enjoyed good food in all these countries. I loved Barcelona the most as I enjoyed seeing the works of Gaudi.
The second day we were back, I was presented an offer for an interim assignment to department I was looking into. I must say I am very excited to learn new things in this group. Although it is a bigger group. (i.e. 16 people report to me) but the most important part is that I don't need to micro manage them and hold their hands. They are experienced and know their job very well.
When my boss announced to my previous team that I am moving, my team was very depressed. I built a strong team and trained them well. I miss them but I needed to move on to learn new stuff and gain some balance in my life and get ready for the next step of my life.
I also got my last implant in and everything went well. I asked my surgeon not to put me to sleep and I am glad that I made that decision.
Two weeks into my role and already have got a positive feed back from my bosses boss on handling certain teleconference! I am glad to be part of this team. Most of them are my old friends and people are friendly.
Last week, my uncle with his family came to Canada for a visit. We spent almost every night with them and I really enjoy spending time with them, last night they came over to our place and it was nice hosting them.
Since the last post, I made drastic changes in my view of life. I started reading this book on 7 habits of highly effective people by Steve Covey and interestingly, as I started reading my life started to change I will continue finishing it but the start was the best thing that happened to me. I highly recommend reading it.
My plan till January of 2012 is that I finish up my dental project, get fit and balanced and enjoy our time as much as possible and start trying to get pregnant.
We have started watching Gray's Anatomy and I must say I am not addicted to watching it!
