Birthdays!

It's Ilia's birthday... technically right now! I can't believe it's already been a year since she was born. So much has happened in that time. It really makes me excited to see what the future is going to bring. A few weeks ago I did up a memo to request an Occupational Transfer or OT from the Armoured trade that I am currently in, over to the RMS clerk trade. Basically I'm going from the combat arms using tanks over to office work. Of course that's mostly because all of my time spent in the Armoured Corps has had me in an office and I find myself enjoying that work much more than anything having to do with tanks. Maybe that makes me a weirdo to some of the people I work with but I really get a kick out of the boss sitting me at a computer and saying "Do this" and letting me figure it out, usually because I know more about computers than my bosses do. I'm excited for Christmas. It's been quite some time since I saw my family and it will be good to see them again. Actually I'm kind of hoping that my OT might actually allow me to get posted back to Moose Jaw so we can be closer to our family which I think will be good for us and Ilia. Monday will be my first full day at work with my 3 positions. I'm in dispatch, I work with the maintainers and I'm helping out the clerks. It's going to be interesting to see how I juggle all of these responsibilities and frankly it hasn't been going too well with my 2 positions that I have. I don't know what my leadership was thinking in getting me involved with maintenance when I'm in the process of an OT. Doesn't really make any sense to me. Whatever. Well that's about it for now. CIAO!
