Well this year started off rather badly. I was full of hope at the end of last year and looking forward to a little apple juice to welcome the new year in. Unfortunately I came down with the Flu on New Years Eve and it took me four or five days to recover. I then had news of my next appointment which is Navs on Fort Austin. I feel that I have taken a step backwards since going on the Bay boat course. I had successful trips with good reports as Operations Officer on both Fort Austin and Fort George in 2006/2007 and now I am back to just Navigating. Hopefully though when the incumbent Ops leaves I may be able to step back up there, we will just have to see.
Hopefully this year will be better than the last few years, I think we are finally getting our finances sorted so hopefully we will be able to start saving and climb out of the current hole. Things will get better when we manage to sell our Suntera points if the thieving Gypsy's ever send us the re-sale pack. I have been asking for it for almost two months and it still hasn't arrived. Anyway that's another story so I won't write about it today.
Currently I am on the MwarC course at the not so wonderful Collingwood. Well at least it means I can get home at the weekends to see Debbie and Elizabeth. I can't believe how much the wee one has changed over the past few months. Most surprisingly of all though is the effect her smile has. Just one little smile brings so much sunshine into our lives, I am looking forward to the coming years and watching her grow up.
Well over the coming year I am going to make a concerted effort to update this Blog regularly. I am not the greatest of writers and I know my spelling and grammar are piss poor, but hopefully they will get better. I just hope I can get access to this when I am on Austin as I find it soothing to write and it may help keep me out of the bar, and more importantly bring me some form of sanity.
