Holy crap. I’ll be giving myself an ulcer every time I realise how close I am to what I am going to be doing! It’s exciting and scary all at the same time.

Yikes.

Today I was going to head to the gym and then do a swim when I realise, naaaaaaaah!!

Instead, I’ll be heading up to [...]

After work today I headed over to the mall with my mom. I hate the mall, more than anything. But, there were a few things on my “stuff to get for basic training” that I thought I should like, you know, maybe buy since we have only a few short weeks before I head off?

Um. [...]

Being prepared for basic training does involve more than just getting fit, mentally prepared and through the job interview. For some — especially older people or those with commitments such as family — have a few more things they need to arrange before they leave.  When the recruiting centre asks you if you have any [...]

Nutrition as taken a new focus lately now that I have money again to buy food and everything! (Granted, not a lot of money but better than no money whatsoever!) Essentially I’m on an approximately 90-95% whole-foods nutrition diet. I don’t mean “diet” in the losing-weight sense but diet as in general nutrition.

For me, whole [...]

It’s been a bit quiet on the blog-front these days. Two things happen when there’s a long lull of quiet… the first is, I’m assessing a situation. The second is, nothing is happening.

The past three weeks and a bit have been essentially a write-off, like most of the six months this year.  When I sprained [...]

Four weeks from now I will be driving down a highway passing through my old communities waving good-bye to my family along the way and heading to Quebec and finding myself at the Saint-Jean megaplex fortress where I’ll be walking through The Green Door.

The Green Door is where all new recruits to Saint-Jean pass through [...]

Results of the x-ray came back and it was all good! Only some bruising & irritation of the tissues in-between the knee-cap and epidermis that will require good ol’ “time” as a remedy for healing.  Let’s hope for speedy healing!

Time is short these days, especially when you have to be somewhere in a month in [...]

Some good news, despite feeling like Humpty Dumpty!!! Everything seems to have healed well with the sprained ankle and the doctor ordered some x-rays with regards to the knee to make sure everything is a-okay with it. He did say I could have broke it but - he won’t give an official diagnoses until he [...]

Hey guys! I can kinda bend my knee today so it’s all good! My right knee doesn’t hurt a wink which is great — last night there was an egg-sized lump on it so I’m relieved! The other one I imagine will be stiff a few days. I’m giving it yesterday and today “off” and [...]

I half-heartedly joked a few months back with all my bad luck, that I must have been a puppy killer in a past life or something. Fortunately, I don’t believe in Karma…

Bad marriage, start new life.

Car accident at Christmas.

Sprained ankle two weeks ago.

And today, fall down stairs (there is broken concrete on it) and land [...]
