Bert's work

Well, things have been going fairly well here. We were able to make a fun trip down south a couple of weeks after Keira was born (Canadian Thanksgiving), so we had fun with family/friends down there. We've been busy, that is one reason I haven't really had a chance to get on here and write much. BUT, now that I have something exciting to write about, I have to update, so that everyone can know...
Bert came home from work the other day with good news and bad news. The good news... they have decided to up him to a supervisor, which is VERY exciting, considering that is two steps above where he is right now. Along with the supervisor position, he'll get a company cell phone, laptop and pickup truck (for when he's on his days on) to drive, he already has the gas card to go along with the truck. I'm so proud of him, and I'm excited for this all to take effect. We're not quite sure when it will take effect, but they ordered his laptop on Wednesday, so I'm assuming sometime after that arrives.
What this means is that instead of being the one who works the pump when they go out on a job, he can either do that (which isnt' required of him, but he probably will do because he's not a lazy bum like some of the other supervisors), or he can sit in his truck and do the paperwork for the job (which he'll have to do anyway).
This is very exciting, even though it means we'll be in Lloydminster now for probably a couple more years at the least. The opportunity is just too good to say no to.
