After a totally nightmare-ish 2003, 2004 is finally starting to look up. I got a job! A real one with regular pay and benefits! The icing on the cake would be a letter from immigration Canada confirming my permanent residence status (now, that would be a miracle!)
Anyway, something else which cheered me up further was finding out that I'd won a prize (well, a first place ribbon, anyway) in the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America's Photo Contest at their recent specialty show in Texas http://www.bernernews.net/2004/pictures/0415.jpg The actual picture I submitted can be seen here http://www.beard-redfern.com/tmp/prize_w.jpg The category in which we won makes it even more special as Boris was diagnosed with lymphosarcoma in September last year. wendy beard ottawa, canada http://www.beard-redfern.com wendy beard ottawa, canada http://www.beard-redfern.com
