I QUIT !!!

That's right ... I have quit the infamous retailer Canadian Tire and jumped ship to a database and applications company called Oracle. After 5 years with "The Tire", it was time to move on to something new and more challenging. I won't rule out ever returning to The Tire but at this stage, picking up on some consulting experience won't hurt.

Life will not be the same as my time at Canadian Tire has been slow paced for a little over a year now. At Oracle, the pace will be lightning speed and the stress will be high. Then again, that's the way I like it. Might as well take advantage of my youthfulness (yeah right!) and take the heat now.

As far as the house is concerned, nothing new has changed since the table and chairs went in. We did buy a new vacuum cleaner (oooo!! exciting! NOT!) from Canadian Tire at 50% off. Really good deal on the bagless Hoover model. Our old vacuum lasted us over 7 years so I've demoted it to garage duties for cleaning of the car. We plan to look for a new mattress soon and put up a couple of more curtains in the house.

Anyways, I'll keep everyone posted....
