Well, summer was non-existant. I believe you could count the "summer days" on one hand. Fall was early, and looking out at the snow on the ground at this very moment brings about an involuntary shudder. I can't believe winter has already started!
Just found out one of my favorite guitarists has passed away. Jeff Healey succumbed to cancer at 41 years of age. What a loss, the man could really play!
The turmoil, drama and controversy surrounding my employment continues, albeit slightly more muted. I've been able to lead my first tour of the PLP site, fittingly, it was my village touring. Things on that end of my life have been progressing. I'm learning more about the "art" of stakeholder relations (thanks to Heidis tutelage) and being able to put this stuff into practice is fulfilling. I am still very much enjoying this job.
We've had a stomach virus sweep the village. It knocked down 16 people in one night. In a village of 50, that's a huge hit. All because someone sick thoughtlessly kept contact with the rest of the community instead of staying home and recovering. Issued a memo that should deal with it.
Busy couple of months coming up for me. Traveling to Anchorage for AFN next week, then to Saskatoon, Saskatchawan for a Canadian Aborgininal Minerals Association conference. Should be very interesting. December is the Bureau of Indian Affairs Service Providers Conference in Anchorage, along with BBNCs Leadership Workshop. Whew!
