On Tuesday I went with Pete and his team from work to his boss's house for a cookout lunch (in Canada, it's called a barbeque), and then to the big amusement park, Canada's Wonderland. It was hot, sunny and crowded. Even so, I was told that this is not a busy day for Wonderland, because the kids are still in school. YIKES! We got to go on a few rides, after standing in line for about 25 min each time. However, it was fun going on the water slides. I would go in front of Peter, and watch him come shooting out after me, grinning like a kid.

Life has been slow for me. Today I have to make an appointment to take my drivers test. I also want to drive to the different work sites that I will be volunteering at for Habitat for Humanity.

I went to an orientation on Tuesday night, and learned a little about the history of Habitat. It was founded by a man and his wife, (of course, I do not have their names) who were very wealthy, but it had taken a toll on their marriage. They had separated, and then decided to get back together and start from scratch, and not keep all their wealth. I find that quite inspiring. But the reason I'm volunteering is to keep myself sane, get out of the apartment and meet new people. They also are going to have me help with the landscaping on a couple of projects, which I'm excited about, because I want to learn more about that side of things.

As far as work, I can't get a job until the papers come in. Unless and employer sponsors me. I was told that since I had a specialty, the chances of being sponsored are good. But then I discovered that the chances of being certified as a dietitian without these papers are not good at all. And dietitians cannot work without certification. Considering how many varying answers we have gotten in the past, I am hoping that if I talk to the right person, he/she will tell me what I want to hear. Kind of like using a slot machine. Or the lottery. Ya right.
