I arrived back from Toronto safe and sound!!! What a fun week! The meetings that I attended for work were very promising to my profession, the team that they had selected to form the working group phenomenal! We got a lot accomplished and it gives such as sense of empowerment to know that our group had good representation in terms of consultation for policy/management changes. I was also blessed to be grouped with some very nice people so we enjoyed each other's company for sure!I love Toronto. Although I wouldn't want to live there, I always enjoy the excitement and hustle and bustle of the big City. I worked in Scarborough for about 6 years when I was younger and really enjoyed going downtown for the night life............now sleepy Kingston is more my speed....lol
