Blog #12 - A Little Bit Lazy!

Hey everyone! Well, as you all can see it's been awhile since I last did a Blog, just over a months now actually, and I know I need to get in gear and get things going again, but right now I'm a little on the slow side and need to get back into the swing of things so I can get more Blogs on the way.

This past weekend was our Mid-Winter Dinner and partying for our, as you guessed it, the start of winter for us and the start of summer for you all up North. It also is pretty much the mid-point for a lot of us here in McMurdo with all of us on our downhill decent before we hit our departure date.

The party and fun was exciting and to say that people didn't get crazy would be an understatement. I will admit I was one of those who got crazy and I will admit I also felt it the next day. I am still trying to catch up on my sleep and get back into the full swing of things as soon as possible. As soon as I recharge and feel fully ready I'll get back to the Blogs and fill you in on things like; a large bulldozer falling partially through the ice and needing to be saved, my excitement of helping at the Poo Plant, and the adventures of the Mid-Winter Dinner.

OK, well I hope everyone is enjoying the start of summer and all the warmth and joy it brings. Soon the sun will rise higher and higher and soon we'll be bathed in it's glow and warmth before we depart. Enjoy yourselves and I'll be posting here pretty soon.

Cheers!
