Time is really flying by! My 2008 commitment is to try to post more often.
Work is still going great! It's busy lately & I think that it's just going to continue - especially because of winter.
Allison just started back to work today & I'm really happy that she was ok with it! Olivia is doing great.... Pretty much walking & talking & other things... I mean, she is growing up really fast!
Christmas was great! Well, Olivia was so tired that she couldn't even open all of her gifts. I ended up working on Xmas Eve and Boxing day so my holidays where pretty short lived, but that's ok! I was able to spend it with Allison & Olivia. My holiday experience didn't get any better or worse because I also worked on New Years Eve & Day.... It was really busy - on NYE mostly.
As I'm sure some of you know, we have had a great deal of snow so far this year! Well, I made a great investment!!!! I bought a SNOWBLOWER!!!
I love it! It's a Sears Craftsman 11.5hp! It's really awesome!
Well, that's about it for now!
'til next time!

A new adventure
Day 2!
It's hard to believe that it's already been 2 days that I'm no longer employed with RBC. It's even harder to imagine that it's been just over 8yrs that I was with RBC. I certainly can't say that I have been miss-treated by the bank...
I have started a new employement, but this time, it's really in line with my final career. On Monday, I started with Medical Transport Coordination Center, aka: MTCC. So far the training is pretty intense. Lots to learn in a short period of time. Well, actually, we have 4 weeks plus 4 weeks of on the job training.
It is pretty interesting & I'm learning stuff, but a lot of it you have to know it on the tip of your fingers. I know that it will come to that, but I'm the type where I have little patience and want to know everything now.... but that's just part of life! What's even more fun is that in my class, I actually know half of the people, 2 from the FD, 1 a friend from school, 1 ex-client and 1 person who's house we'd saved!
Well, that's about it for now! I have to email my old payroll coordinator to see if I can get access to my payroll sheets to see how much I'm getting paid next week...

Fire Fire Fire
Well, on Sept 25, we had quite the little adventure!
Allison went to a scrapbooking party and I was at home with Olivia. I had just sat down from putting Olivia down & was on my computer - actually thinking of something to blog about, when the phone rang.
It was my accountant telling me that he had some questions in regards to my taxes (2006 - yes I know that it's a little late! LOL). As we where going through that, my pager went off at 2056. My heart starts to race as I listen to the dispatch.
The call came in that the building was already half involved in flames. I couldn't believe it! I was at home stuck on the phone. I never wanted to hang up so quickly in my life to call Allison & see where she was at.
Once I was finally done with the accountant, I called Allison really quickly. As she answers, I ask "where are you?" She simply replied that she was getting ready to leave. I was happy about that. Cause I knew that we where going to be spending some time on scene.
Once Allison arrived, I headed to the Fire Hall and discovered that there was 3 other people there too.... looking for the Deputy Chief's keys. He was out of town.
All in all, the fire went well. The building was not half involved as the dispatch came in. It was contained & we where able to keep the fire from spreading too much.
Other then that, I've got 2 new developments coming my way. Two local employment offers have arrived on my door step. I don't want to go into too much details just yet as I don't want to jinx anything.
Olivia is growing up very quickly. She can now easily stand and also crawl up the stairs. She is also recovering from Tonsillitis.... She had a very high fever last week - as high as 102. All in all, it was scary, but under control. The only thing that really bothers me about my work is situations like that. I was in Richibucto and Allison wasn't sure what else to do. I rushed home & spent time with them while we waited for our Dr's appt.
So, Olivia is going to stay on meds (penicillin) for 10 days, just to make sure that eveything is completely gone.
Well, that's all I've got for now!

New Adventure
Well, I'm on vacation!
That's right! We are leaving for Toronto on Sunday Morning - bright & early! Keep your eyes open because I'll be snapping some pics with my camera phone & posting them to my flickr account.
Also, whenever I can get a connection, I'll try to post an update of how the trip is going & where we are so far in our journey!

One Step closer!
Well, there are a couple of things new since earlier today!
I am 1 step closer to my interview & Olivia sat up all by herself!
Yup! you read that right! Olivia was able to figure out how to sit up all by herself! The way she does it is very cute! She rolls onto her belly, then brings her knees in and brings her feet under her belly then walks her hands backwards until she's on her butt! Very cute & ingenious of her!
We're gonna have to try to get her on dvd....

Waiting for what?
Well, another week is almost over & I've decided to pursue another job opportunity!
The Mountain Rd branch has an opening for a Senior Account Manager (SAM) and I think I'm pretty well qualified for it! I put in my application - which closed on Monday and now I'm just waiting for my interview! I really do hate waiting, but it's the only way things get done.
Other then that, not a whole lot else is going on. Almost had a huge fire last night; however, turned out to be some kids that decided to burn a tire instead. The passerby who called 911 stated that there was heavy smoke showing.... There was, but it was from a tire and not a building.
Olivia is almost 8 months old now! That's really hard to beleive! She's growing up really fast & I can still see changes in her every day! We're pretty sure that she's already waving to us when we say "HI" & "BYE"... She'll lift her hand up and wiggle her fingers.... it's really cute!
So, I'm in Richibucto right now & when I first got here, there was an MVA just outside of work. Didn't seem to be much damage; however, it looked like it may have been some visitors to the area. Now that really sux!
Allison & I tried to go & see The Simpson's Movie last friday & when we got there, it was already sold out!
We ended up going to see Transformers instead!
IT ROCKED!
The movie was excellent. Very well done! You couldn't tell that the Autobots & Decepticons where CGI. I hope that they make a second.... I was also surprised to see some of the other big names that where in the movie. Josh Duhamel and Jon Voight, I'd seen in commercials; however, some of the others, I was surprised to see!
Well, that's all I've got for today!

Bloggin
Why is it so hard to think of something to say when you want to say something! Does that even make any sense?
I guess I just wanted to start with a ramble! now that's out of the way, we can carry on....
Olivia is the big 5 today! I can't believe that 5 months has already gone by! You never really realize how fast time does go by until you have a child!
Talking about a child - I ordered some stuff from rbcperformance - a reward program that work has, and it's already in! I'm so excited! It's a fish rocker for Olivia, a walker and a golf bag for me. I think I'm going to take a drive tonight & pick those things up! I can't wait!
Other then that, not a whole lot else is going on. Still pluggin away at work, trying to make a million$$, but I don't think it's going to happen this year. Oh well....
The competition is trying to tempt me to cross over! Talked to an old colleague who works with them & she said that she likes it very much! I'm not sure that I'd want to make the move, just cause, after a 3rd straight year, I'd be starting over again. So I told the area manager for the mtg development officers that I wasn't interested anymore & she didn't take no for an answer... Just like a true banker!
She told me that she was going to send me some information regarding how they work & asked me to compare it to what I'm doing now.... i have yet to receive that email.
Talking about jobs, my sister is going to have an interview with Moncton Regional Vice President on Monday. I'm anxious to see what's going to happen! I can't wait! I hope that she gets it! She needs to have a better income job. She's worked at Coles for the last 10yrs & she's done well, but the income is - as always, retail income. Never enough to really be able to live.
There's also some pretty interesting news with the new Banking Acts. Homeowners no longer need to have a 25% down payment. The Federal Government has decided to reduce that to a 20% down payment before default insurance has to kick in. It might not affect a whole lot of purchase transactions; however, it will have a huge impact on the refinance deals & our new Homeline product.
Talking about new products, RBC has also come out with a way for you to get free banking depending on the number of products that you have. It's a way for us to say Thank You.
Well, I guess that's all I have for now! I must be going!

Decisions to be made!
WoW!
What a week that I've got planned - or should I say had planned out! I can't believe that the week is already over!
I've made a big decision - all of my clients this week and part of next week are during the evenings. Well, the way that it's going now, I never get to see Olivia & Allison although we usually don't get to bed until 1 or 2am anyways! So, what I'm planning on doing is simply modify my work schedule to allow me to spend more time with Allison & Olivia during her "waking" hours.
So, if I don't have any clients during the day, I'll try not to book any appointments, unless the clients ask for one, and spend that time with them. I know that this will just continue to strenghten our family bond!
Talking about bonding, we purchase a Sony Handycam this week. I think this was a great investment. Allison & I were talking and she wanted me to convince her why we should get one. I told her that some of the most important times in our lives are coming up pretty quickly - for example, when Olivia starts to walk, talk, crawl, sit up - anything like that! I want to be able to have a video record of it instead of a low light caption on our digital camera.
Work is treating me well so far! I've been busy, maybe not at busy as some of the other reps; however, I'm still holding my own... I've got 30% of my target done with 1.5 quarters done of the year. So it's not too bad! I hope that it continues this way & that it gets busier. I'd love to have big paychecks!
I hear that the weather is supposed to change for the worse tomorrow! I really hope that we don't get hit with another 20cm's of snow! I really can't handle that! Considering it's only going to be the second major snow storm of the "winter season", it's not too bad.
So, I've had my "donation" button live for a while, but I have yet to receive any donations.Mind you, I'm not getting as much traffic as I'd hope, but none the less... i'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I am continuing to try to find different places where I can be introduced to the people of the web - I've added my blog to a few different listings - as shown on the right...
Well, that's all I've got for now!

Help me get a MAC
Well, I've pretty much always been a Windows kinda guy & lately, I've been listening a lot to Leo Laporte and what he has to say on anything & everything tech wise.... Well, it's got me curious in regards to what a MAC has to offer.
What I would love to have is a MacBook Pro. I've started to like technologie more & more as I'm working this Mortgage Rep job because it gives me time to listen to the podcast while I'm driving & gives me ideas of things that I'd love to do! (if you make a donation, you will see that you are directed to my paypal site with my business name - 5alarmgifts.com - don't be alarmed - that's really me!)
I have so many ideas as to how I can grow this business that it's unreal. The problem is that the bank isn't always ready to embark on such adventures. I know that the competition is doing it because I've listened to their podcasts.
When I think about it, I understand why they want to control everything, but I think if they allowed some user generated content onto some of there sites like mine for example, I strongly believe that I could generate more leads & in turn generate a higher income for RBC. I know that myself, I can't make a million dollars for RBC in net income; however, if we all did the little things, I'm sure that it will add up.
Allison & I have been talking lately about a possible career change. I've love to do something technological, but I'm not sure that will happen in Moncton. Plus the fact that I don't have any Tech Certificates doesn't help!
I'm keeping my options open & I'm not actively looking for employement, but if someone was to make an offer that was very interesting, I'm sure that I would consider it!
Well, that's all that I've got new for now!

Stuck on You
I have to say that I think I invested into a great item!!!!
RBC Promos had a sale on recently & I thought that I'd invest into some magnets - fridge magnets to be exact! They where regularly priced at $0.40 each & the sale was for 50% off. So, I thought why not! Lets order 1000 pieces since it's not going to be expensive!!! I've handed a few out to clients already as I have just received them & also sent some to the old staff that I used to work with!
People love them! I've had smiles, I've had compliments - it's great! I really think that this was a great idea. I just hope that it now starts to pay out!
Kent Homes is doing an open house next weekend in Bouctouche! I'm very anxious to see how much business I'm going to get out of this! I hope that it's going to be a great day! They are going to set me up with an office & internet connection, so I'll be able to provide people with instant pre-approvals & so on. This is going to be great!
I think that the snow if finally all gone! I hope that it really doesn't come back!!!
Other then that, there's not a whole lot else going on. I've finally decided to remove my Microsoft Office stuff! I've gone open source! I'm using Open Office right now & I'm liking it. The files can be saved either as a .xls, .doc or whatever type of file you need. It's great & it's FREE!!
I kinda wished work was like this as well, but it may come with time! I'm also starting to debat what I want to do with 5 Alarm Gifts.... I'm not working at it as hard as I could be/should be - so I'm thinking I may take Allison's advice & close up shop. I mean, it's treated me well, but I'm also self-employed as a Mortgage Specialist, so it's no longer a tax issue. I think I want to take this business (Mortgage Rep) as far as I can go. I mean, I'm always in contact with a marketing manager in TO helping me put things together for either advertising or other little things.
Man oh Mighty! I'm sleepy!!!!
Talking about sleepy! Olivia is now sleeping 10 to 12 hrs! it's truly awesome!
Well, i think that's all I got for now!

HAZ-MAT
Tonight is going to be a busy night! I have to write my exam to obtain my "Introduction to Haz-Mat" and afterwards, I have to meet a client.
I don't mind though! I kinda enjoy the rushing around. Keeps me busy! Other then that, there's not a whole lot going on.
As you can see, I've added Twitter - so all my fans - which I know that I have at least one or two, can stay on top of what I'm doing..... LOL
Olivia is still improving. I think we are going to start seeing some elbow bending soon! She is starting to move her arm around more & more every day!!! I'm so happy that it's slowly coming around!
Last night, I was playing around with the idea of trying to manager my own RBC Mortgage Specialist website & I may have convinced some key people to let me do it! So as a temporary site, this is what I have created - Joel Gallant. This page isn't a final copy or anything, but it's just to show what can be done in a couple of hours!
As you can see, I am thinking about doing some podcasting. Obviously it would be Home Ownership related - Either as a buyer or as a seller....
I'm already planning on different topics & hoping to do at least 10 episodes... Something monthly I think. So, we'll see what happens with the whole website thingy first!
Well, client is almost here, so that's all that I've got for now!
'til next time!
I don't mind though! I kinda enjoy the rushing around. Keeps me busy! Other then that, there's not a whole lot going on.
As you can see, I've added Twitter - so all my fans - which I know that I have at least one or two, can stay on top of what I'm doing..... LOL
Olivia is still improving. I think we are going to start seeing some elbow bending soon! She is starting to move her arm around more & more every day!!! I'm so happy that it's slowly coming around!
Last night, I was playing around with the idea of trying to manager my own RBC Mortgage Specialist website & I may have convinced some key people to let me do it! So as a temporary site, this is what I have created - Joel Gallant. This page isn't a final copy or anything, but it's just to show what can be done in a couple of hours!
As you can see, I am thinking about doing some podcasting. Obviously it would be Home Ownership related - Either as a buyer or as a seller....
I'm already planning on different topics & hoping to do at least 10 episodes... Something monthly I think. So, we'll see what happens with the whole website thingy first!

Nothing - just Nothing
I've been wanting to blog a little more often recently & today, I can't seem to come up with anything interesting to say!
I know of one thing that could make a lot of people happy! RBC has put a $250 000 prize giveaway together for the Spring Mortgage Campaign. If you want a chance to win, just go to the following site - Gold Key Giveaway and fill out a short survey. You will then be asked to click here to obtain a number or to enter your number from our scratch cards.
Other then that, there's not a whole lot going on. Business is going pretty good. It's really busy in Richibucto lately! I can't beleive it! I almost feel bad for my Bouctouche markets because I haven't been there in almost 2 full weeks.
The Moncton Home Show is also coming up in a couple of weeks. I'm debating if I want to go & spend some time there or not. They Moncton Team is having a meeting next Wednesday & I may go & drop by to see what it's all about. I have made a great partnership with Kent Homes & I'm hoping that it's really going to pay off.
I'm not sure if I had mentioned it or not, but I was contemplating a career change not too long ago. I was thinking of going into Real Estate as a Realtor... Potential money is a million times better then what I'm making now, but also harder to sell a house compared to a client walking into the branch & wanting to meet with me to Refinance their home or whatever.
So, who knows.
I'm also debating if I want to try to create some kind of podcast that would talk about Real Estate & what is involved with Buying & Refinancing. It could be very interesting & could potentially help increase my income.... So, it's always a thought!
Well, I think I'm going to go & visit the Bouctouche Branch!
'til next time!
