life so far

Posted by Elliswordpress on July 27, 2016

First time family was away from me, so i kept myself busy exploring the city- definitely was a weirdo feeling not constantly checking on baby…and sleep deprived mother. Unfortunately my exciting trip exploring the city’s newest feature, the Brewery District was cut short because Winners is not opened yet. Hmph.

But the new City Market was open- it was really neat inside- loved the design language- its more of an upscale deli mart than a grocery store.

Helping A on Kijiji- grabbing a fire pit for cheap- although looking at the cost of fire pits online makes me think it wasn’t that great, but he was a fan and needed it but was in HK.

Getting pumped for UFC 200- doing some Ab workouts with WK while we kill some time before dinner and the fight.

Really enjoying the overall feel of the grocery store.

Saw ID2 – it was not bad , but not memorable- I wouldn’t want to see it again except on Netflix. The stinking reviews and terrible box office performance seemed to state the same.

Edmonton has been getting an insane amount of storms- I have never seen this many storms in such a short window- almost every 2nd day has been an afternoon monster thunderstorm. Exciting for sure, but surprising.

Celebrating my latest employment victory- I am now a permanent clinician! Now I have secured a shite ton of work hours, i feel a few things- definitely more secure in raising my new family, and more confident in my clinical skills/career man. Feeling great and celebrating with a large java chip frap.

Celebrating bdays with fires, food, and mosquitoes with friends in the park.

The new City Market also has lots of special items like this bakery section. Digging it for sure.

my little pumpkin is a baby snorlax.

Going hard on the reading- been a big fan of the EPL and grabbing ebooks- lately cramming down a lot of Dan Siegal, M.D.. Enjoying some summer heat out in the sun with WK.

Demoing some equipment at London Drugs- again more time on my hands with the fam away. Really liking the fact this room exists for me to blast speakers- really all I have been doing without a baby in the house.

S came over to celebrate employment achievements- went to India Bistro for some great Indian food. Garlic roti bread.

Lovign the summer greens and blues. I’ve been reallly getting out and enjoyign the sun and feeling fantastic.

Did not like this- Manchurian chicken was like meh home cooked Chinese food, except the kind you don’t serve to guests.

A lamb curry dish- awesome- one of my comfort foods.

Swimming with H has been amazing. I love going out with her in the pool and watching her grow just a little bit each time- she is getting more and more accustomed to the water. She initially was terrified of it, but she’s been doing awesome with the backfloat.

Liking the udnerground parking space- so much space available and easy access to City Market upstairs. Will be awesome in the winter for sure.

LEsnar captures the win….and then a week or so later is accused of PEDs. Definitely not a mind blowing fight, but was excited to see him duke it out. Not excited about the PEDS.

Loving the little set up here with Klipsch speakers and a Sony source.

Saw my first int he flesh cicada! Very excited to see this. Then S kicked it off the balcony. Not impressed.
