still trying to cope with the loss of Julien. My sister is very upset. We lost him in a very tragic accident. I'm hoping to go to Castlegar on the weekend just to be with her. Wish I could go sooner but work would never forgive me for taking more time off - not to mention my bank account.....
At least I can go for one day....
In the meantime I have been given the Dictator's blessing to go to NZ. I owe it to our kayaking guide on our holidays. There we were out in the ocean paddling away. Just the three of us. Heather - the guide - starts to tell us about how amazing our ocean is, and then just happens to compare it to New Zealand - completely out of the blue!!!!!! I mention I want to go and why. She proceeds to try and help me convince the the Dictator. Well apparently it worked. I owe that girl a bottle of wine.
So now I'm trying to find out if the flight is still available, where to stay for the extra night, if I can still get a ticket to the show, get the ok for the time off work... etc etc etc. The jet lag is going to kill me for such a short trip but I don't have a choice. It can't be much worse then working on set in film. Mondays you are starting at 7:00am, Fridays you are starting at 7:00pm...
I sent a bunch of emails tonight. We'll see what I find out tomorrow...
My etsy shop is thriving as well thanks to the gift guide thing - crazy! Only one sale out of it so far but lots of requests and people adding me as a favourite (it's doubled from 80 to 200 in 24 hours) I've decided to give half of my proceeds over the next month to the Nelson SPCA in Julien's name..... Hope I can raise some money......
ok time to go veg in front of the tv and check in on my sister..............
