I am off to Toronto for the weekend, and maybe a visit to Kingston on my way back.
…and I’m really looking forward to it. I took Monday off, just so I could be flexible as to when I have to be where.
Those that will be at the party tonight, see you soon.
Those that are planning […]

So anyone else have to clean frost off their car windows in the morning? The journey to winter is underway.
I need to find my ice scraper.
I need to also see if I can salvage space in the garage to fit the car again. Happiness is waking up after a night of freezing rain, knowing the […]

Yesterday, I golfed for the first time. My company did a company wide day at the golf range. As Helen coined it, “Golf is a waste of a good walk”, but when in rome… I did actually enjoy myself moderately. The secret is in not caring how well you do. Line up, and give the […]

Well, who expected that. The liberals picked up *more* seats than they had, they have an even bigger majority. I have no trouble with a liberal government, I am even tentatively ok with a liberal majority, but I would have liked a small humility shot by seeing them slide a little. As it is, I […]

Well….
Custom molding is only done on top end skates, they can’t support the market on generic skates for some reason. Top end skates start at $669 for the models that qualify (at the place I called anyways)…and the custom job adds $150. In other words, more than I remember based on my past experience of […]

Ok…so most of the time I have not been home in the day, considering what I think of my home phone is..well…at home. So generally, Helen always got the day time calls, or the answering machine.

I went to take my $100 gift certificate to (I can’t remember the name, Batoushka…something like that) and see what they had to offer. It’s quite a large store, lots of camping stuff, canoes, hiking material, bikes, some sports stuff. Nothing I had a burning need for, though they had some really good winter mitts, […]
