On or about Feb 21, 2009, a neighbour left a note on my windshield. Thus began a conversation between myself and said neighbour regarding the parking situation on our block. How will it all end? Read the street parking papers for more.
I really like this neighbourhood. The crows didn’t cooperate yesterday. Prime Minister Harper has just announced that Highway 11 between Saskatoon and Prince Albert is going to be twinned. I’ve been up that highway to go here. Keith slept over. He really is one of my favorite people, and I love him more all the [...]
Wow. Anyway, I hears that Ryanair wants to charge me a pound every time I go to the crapper. Mh.. hrm. So, speaking as somebody who pooped themselves in public as an adult – it’s a funny story, but I won’t tell it here – I have to say that if I did my drawers [...]
I lost my bank card about three weeks ago but only called the bank to replace it a week ago, and it turned up yesterday. Without a bank card I couldn’t pay bills on line which was bad, or spend much money, which was good. I think I will start leaving it at home unless [...]
Saturday lunch – Marcello’s with the Dunnetteers. Keith is joining us, woo hoo! Saturday supper – Congregational dinner. Sunday morning – set up at church. Sunday evening – finally meet the dog and possibly feeding my date dinner. Needless to say I’m gonna be really busy….
That and watching NCIS and a show about PTSD in American soldiers from Gulf II was all I did last night.
There’s nothing wrong with me losing 50 pounds won’t fix. Ah, life!
I was at Potlatch in Seattle, a literary con, and I had a good time. I bought a t shirt at Potlatch that I love and wear a lot. Tom Whitmore told me about this. Hearing that out of his own mouth was the high point …. I just deleted the middle part of this [...]
Mermaid!
Yup, Jeff stayed out all night last night. That’s the way things are in this crazy cuckoo world; you introduce your brother to your friends and the next thing you know he’s staying out all night with them (okay, Mike’s got a really comfy sofa). I have this little thing called a job so I [...]
Yeah, I know, but I screwed up a double batch (Gimli glider error – I was converting measurements and dropped a decimal up) and I was damned if I was going to consign all that butter to the trash. So I stood there (and no, I wasn’t sobbing, but I was some upset) and asked [...]
It was quite a weekend for cooking. I made rum drops (cheap version of rum ball, and not super successful because I didn’t use powdered sugar), pork roast with the trimmings, massively unsuccessful pie crust, and apple filling for the pie crust. I also made macaroni and cheese, and that was an unqualifiied success, and [...]
Somebody had way too much time on his hands. But I thank him.
I think I already posted this link but I don’t care, it’s so cute I’m doing it again. I think “And one of these days it will be Lady Miss B, happy sigh…!”
The sunset, annoyingly enough, didn’t cooperate, but the rest of yesterday evening was loads of fun. I finally have a date for meeting Sammy (my date’s dog); that will be next Sunday afternoon. I am going to secrete a couple of milkbones about my person and then I should do fine. Horizons Restaurant is just [...]
