holidays
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008these holidays are really getting to my system. I don’t know which day it is and I’m extremely tired when I wake up. I’ll be happy to get back on a schedule after all this is over.
I went skating this weekend.
Monday, December 29th, 2008For the first time in probably 8 years I went ice skating yesterday. I had to use rented skates because my last ones were converted into a mouse house in my shed last year. (I really need to buy a new pair). We went to the Southlands mall where we were told they had put [...]
I want my global warming
Monday, December 22nd, 2008Where is all this global warming I keep hearing about. I could use some now.
Its flipping freezing in this country. This is what I left Canada for.

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008So I made a dentist appointment last week. Come in for a check up and cleaning that is way over due.

stupid is as stupid does
Sunday, December 14th, 2008Well as for being stupid and not careful I think I win the prize. I was putting up xmas lights today. And I kept thinking all week that I should do this but I should do it only when the wife was home in case something happened.
Then I convinced myself that I’ve been on ladders [...]
Dish Network and Turbo HD
Saturday, December 13th, 2008Well I must say I’m very happy with Dish Network and Turbo HD. The receiver is top notch and responds very quickly. The DVR portion of the receiver is very easy to use and to configure and I prefer it over tivo in many ways. The benefits are mostly small little things but they fix [...]
auto bailout
Friday, December 12th, 2008I’m so happy that the auto bailout failed. Especially since it hinged on a concession by the UAW and they refused to take the concession and that killed it. That just goes to say they don’t care about the companies only that they can stay in power. Let the auto companies file for bankrupcy break [...]
Christmas
Thursday, December 11th, 2008Christmas is almost here however it doesn’t feel like Christmas to me.
I don’t know why but this year has gone by really fast and Christmas has sneaked up on me. I think I’m done all my shopping. I think. I guess next week I will look at what I’ve purchased and then see if I [...]
online coupons
Tuesday, December 9th, 2008I luckily remembered, I very rarely do, before purchasing some items online today to check for an online coupon. A quick google sent me here Retail me not and 5 seconds later I received 20% off my victoria secret order for the wife.
Snow
Tuesday, December 9th, 2008well the snow was flying last night. I think we got about 5-6 inches however its hard to tell because of the drifts.
I’m sooooo happy I have a garage now, even though I don’t have an opener on my side yet. Well I have it however its still in the box. however the snow seems [...]
