1) Still working on the Great Border Debacle. Sarnia has become a short term, and not so often meeting place. I'll leave messages with some when things turn on a different keel ( Read more... )

*pout* Donna and Marcie left for home today. I'm going to miss them. Marcie left her Dark Eyes Vodka here, so we will return it in October if it's still around *grin*. We parted ways after having lunch at Red Robin. The kids and I popped over to Bath And Body Works to pick up a couple of things I had seen yesterday as I was leaving the store. On ( Read more... )

Donna (ghostlynights) came up on Sunday with her sister, Marcie. During the day on Sunday we went to Chris's sister's place for a lunch and visit. We had a GREAT time! Andrea has a farm and we saw her horses and her Great Danes, and we fished in the pond. Later Bunny and Andrea's daughters went for a swim in the pond. i swear I could have stayed for days. The ( Read more... )

So, I then got a cold. So did the kids. Chris brought it home from work via the Bimbo at the front desk who shared her sunny disposish with the whole fucking office. Bitch. I keep offering to go in and bump her off, but Chris is a bit put off by that idea. Geez, you know, you try to do your all for the good of the community, and what do you get? No ( Read more... )

Last night Bunny and I went to the local arena to see my cousin's son play hockey. He's not usually up this way, but the occasion came along, so we went over. He won, by the way. Who knew 8 year old kids could play so well?? Not me! As we were leaving Bunny was reminiscing about the last time she had been there. It was for dodge ball in the summer ( Read more... )

We are having dinner: pulled pork made today in the crock pot, coleslaw, and a bean salad thingee. Bunny is given a small scoop of coleslaw. A few minutes go by ( Read more... )

So I'z sharin' it!

In case you don't know, tahkayun is Boy. He has posted a rather interesting little page which I am linking here. I think you will ... possibly... get a charge of the creeps, a case of the giggles, or, as I did, both.

We have started a family walk around "the big block". Nemo, Me, Boy and Bunny. We go at about 11 pm and it's about 3 km. It's generally Nemo and I in the lead - talking more than we did when married - Boy and Bunny behind - Boy towering over his sister who is a foot and a half shorter. So try to picture that as you hear from behind you ( Read more... )

That before you teach your child how to ride his shiny new bike, you should first make sure he knows how to stop. I learned this vicariously, and I had the grace not to turn and look behind me as I heard the bike crash in the background of the father yelling "You remember how to stop right? RIGHT ( Read more... )
