sick

I haven't been sick in a loong time. But slowly it crept up on me, and bang! hell. This is terrible, and even the dog won't hang out with me.

Back home

Well, I'm back home (even though it doesn't feel like it) now for a couple weeks. Back to the grind, working on the house, working in the cold. Was hoping for a fun relaxing weekend visiting with friends, relaxing, but that turned bad fast. Sometimes I wish I could just disappear. Well lets hope things work themselves out, because if not, captain anti-social comes out to play. And boo to him.

Winter storm!!

I love winter, hate the cold. Absolutely love the snow, and while I have to spend time in Edmonton, I get to enjoy an awesome winter storm. We tried to get out of the cul de sac today and got stuck, luckily some of the neighbours came to the rescue. If I had my camera I would post some pics because there is a lot of snow. Oh, and today I found my favourite beer in the liquor store, so that was a bonus.

Very very very busy.......doing nothing!

Well, as my title reads, my good friend and I have been very busy doing nothing. Our company out of Ontario occasionally does work out of province, so we generally volunteer to go. This time it has been an absolute piss around. We have been in Edmonton for over a week and a half, and barely done any work. The general contractor keeps shutting us down. I have never seen anything like this. We have been sitting in our house all week so far. Any longer and I think it's time to head home. I am getting really bored, there is only so much Internet and TV you can stare at. We went to the west Edmonton mall, nature walks through some protected green space close by. But my time could be spent better at home, working and doing other things. oh well, hopefully we can go home, and come back when we can do something.

Edmonton

So, I've been here since early monday morning, everything looks the same since I was here last. My good friend Lee and I are staying in a pretty nice house in the south end. Things are going good, except the fact that we haven't been able to do anything because of design problems. So today we went to ikea, sears home, and best buy. boy I'm having a blast! Oh well, another two and a half weeks and I can go home. Living the dream...

Well hello there!

Well it's been quite some time since I last posted, so hello to the 2 people who maybe read this. Living back in Ontario, not what I remembered, at all. Oh well, some times we make choices, and I guess you can never predict any outcome. I have to work out of province for the next little while, and that means I should have a lot of time after work to post, considering all we do is get high after work. So welcome me back, because I just won't go away!

My little monster

Well as the title reads, Gretchen is my little monster; she is an almost one-year-old Staffy (birthday is March 27th), and an absolutely wonderful companion. The only problem with her is that when we have to leave the house for a bit, she likes to destroy things. We never leave her for long though, maybe she thinks that we are never coming back. I hope not because that would be terrible to think. The reason I'm writing this is we have to go shopping, and I'm just wondering what she is going to do. She has ripped apart couch cushions, eaten a hole in the couch, chewed up a headband, and pooped in the house on more than one occasion. I hate crating her, but one more time and I think I will have to start again. Well good luck to Mags and me, we never know what we're going to come home to. This is the picture of my baby Gretchen beside the hole she chewed, just look at how very proud she is!
