Adelaide, SA

Well I just got back from Adelaide in South Australia, I went down for a sales conference for 3 days. My company flew the therapy consultants from Queensland and all the other states to Adelaide so we could have our 2010 'kick off' meeting. It was a full on 3 days, we worked hard and played hard, the hotel we stayed at was very nice, it was close to Flinders University where I went for my morning runs in amongst the beautiful buildings and playing fields. The weather was warm in the day but got cold at night and in the morning......it was a bit of a shock being cold again!!! I am so spoiled here in Queensland, I believe we have the best weather in the whole world!! LOL I don't think I have had to wear a jacket since arriving back in Queensland in July 2009!
The company made an announcement at the meeting, they announced an incentive and motivational booster for everyone. They set some goals for us all, those of us that reach those goals will be treated to an all expenses paid 7 day Hawaiian Island cruise in January 2011! That is quite an incentive wouldn't you say????
I am now all pumped up to excel in my job and get out there and do my very best, I knew it was going to be a great year!

here we go....

Well, back to work tomorrow, cant believe its the 5th January 2010 already....is this an indication its going to be another fast year?
The country's weather is going crazy...we are flooding here in Queensland and Northern NSW and Perth in WA is on fire...insane. We needed a bit of rain in Queensland but we didn't need as much as we got! It rained for about 6 hours straight! Now the humidity is blanketing everyone like a wet blanket!
I don't generally like the rain but the rain here is different, for those of you who have never experienced monsoon type rain, its really quite pleasant. The rain is warm and a welcome relief when it is so hot. I don't like the rain and cold weather combinations!
Anyway, I thought I would check in and say hi to those that read my blog, my holiday is over and now it is full steam ahead with work.
Its going to be a great year!
