So...I left you hanging awhile back...about the job situation.
So I work for a Geophysical resource company that clears land for oil work to be done. Basically, they cut down trees and clear bushes. But they do it in a big way. They are aboriginal owned and operated. I work at the big fancy new Tsuu T'ina Nation Admin Building. Every morning I am greeted by a moose, deer, buffalo and teepee. So far they haven't talked to me, we'll wait and see. This company is also the middle guy for a lot of work that occurs on First Nation lands. So there are a lot of guys in and out of here, lots of calls...and I'm the minority in it all. Only white girl around. But that's okay.
Also checked out Lussier Hot Springs...ever heard of them? Way cool springs right on a river just up the mountain from Canal Flats BC. Really hot too. Three different ones. They get cooler as the flow toward the river and accumulate in the pools. I had visions of lounging in these unknown pools, soaking up a sunny day. Uh, no....sardine city. And sulphur. Pee, yu. But a fun time anyway. 
And, may I say...some people should re-think their bathing suit choices. And Missy, if you think those look real and you're fooling everyone, uh no...you paid for those. And Mr. Old Man...speedo? Gag.
I quit the old job. Why? It was boring. Plain and simple. However, this girl is smart enough not to quit one job before securing another one. In the down time, which was every minute of every day, of the old job...I searched for a new one. Top priority? Actual work to do.
There were many outstanding opportunities that I applied for. Some I was very stoked about. I had ambitions to get away from the accounting arena...focus on other specialities. The weeks went by, I heard nothing. Stupid high unemployment rate. My criteria lowered, I started applying for the accounting positions. I started hearing back from the accounting positions. Cause, let's face it, I have 10 years experience in the accounting stuff... Set up some interviews, all accounting...
You heard the details of the quick hire. Applied for a job Friday afternoon, got a call Sunday evening, went for the interview Monday after work, heard back from the hiring guy Monday night... more money, more responsibility, more vacation, more flexiblity....more accounting. What do you do? You take the job.

The learning curve is always steep in a new job. Learning the ropes is never my favorite thing...hate feeling dumb...hate making mistakes while I learn.
So...moving on. How was your long weekend? I was camping in BC. So fun...needed the down time after a couple stressful weeks. Did nothing. Slept. Had fun with our buddies.
