There was a bass tournament at our lake this weekend. WOW - those people in their expensive boats are CRAZY! LOL!


Sounds nice! Congrats on 24 years!!

Thanks Holiday!
And yes, the pro's are crazy. I have a friend who fishes tournaments, but he is not that crazy. He thinks the pro's are though.

Wishing everyone a good start to the week. I have the day off after working this weekend. The store is busier and busier, I wonder how we make it through alive each weekend. I was so exhausted last night (as was hubby) that we fell asleep before the Game of Thrones season premiere. We were looking forward to it all day but just didn't make it. It's on dvr, I'm doing my best to stay away from spoilers. I have some errands to run and chores to do but right now I'm taking it easy. Procrastination (at home) is my middle name.

Good Morning, Martine!
Happy Monday!!
Enjoy your day off, well deserved <3
Hope you can relax some!
Have a wonderful day~
Hugs to you & Loki.

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

And Happy Rudy Day! (I miss the Rudolph smilie we used to have)

I had a pretty good weekend, keeping busy with things like shopping with Nancy, cleaning around the house, Elizabeth dancing, church and a family reunion. I had to come to work just to get some rest.

Elizabeth's ballet class danced at the local university's Arts fest on Saturday. It was a great afternoon. The next morning, she was on the front page of the paper! Oh, we were all so proud of her. Mama even announced it in church LOL!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good Morning, Brad!
Merry Monday =]
Happy Rudolph Day to you!!

Ha ha about your busy weekend! I feel the same way. I think we should get Mondays off to recover from the weekends.

Congrats to Elizabeth! That is great!

Hope you have a fantastic day!

Animals are amazing!
And Gracie is precious!!

Merry Morning everybody,
April is sailing away from us this week. Enjoy the last of it.
My eldest is home sick today so it will be a hectic day as I try to work in between. I also need to ring my mum but with the time difference she won't be awake yet. However later on may not be a good time for me lol Such a pain. Hope we can sync our time as I found a great deal for her flight over here for the summer! I can't believe it's almost time again!! I was so down at the end of summer last year when she left.

Have a great day all.

Good Monday Morning MMC! Happy Rudolph Day #4! I know Crown will have some great news for us today regarding those upcoming big milestones this week. April turns to May next weekend (doesn't seem possible). Lots of good news this week for us Christmas season fans. Hope everyone had a great weekend. The weather was unbelievable again yesterday. It already is looking like next weekend is another beautiful weather weekend with 65 and sunny. Hard to beat that weather. I'm glad this year we've been staying pretty close to normal most of the spring. I love summer but I don't need it to get too warm until Memorial Day. Looking forward to several 3 day weekends coming this late spring/through summer.
Have a great Monday everyone! Just think if you can have a good Monday that usually means the rest of the week will be even better!

Happy Rudolph Day!!!! Have a good one!

Good morning, everyone!

It has been a very rushed morning. Now, I finally have a chance to relax, although I have only been awake for about an hour and a half!

For the first time this year, I am teaching somewhere that isn't Russell. I was told on Friday that it could be a quiet week, as no teachers were away for various school related activities. I received a call for North Dundas this morning, which is about a 45 minute drive away. When I received the call, I was half awake - after all, it was 6am... They used to start at 8:15am, so I thought I had plenty of time... Then, when I looked to confirm the start time, it said 8am... Uh oh! And this was at 7:12am!! Anyway, I had to sprint out the door. Thankfully, Kim was able clean up my breakfast... I made it just after the bell.

The somewhat good part? After all this rushing, I have the first period off! I could have taken my time after all. Oh well... I'm glad I am here. I have three Grade 11 and 12 classes. They should be easy to handle. I am going to imagine, too, that a bunch will probably just go home as they're only really work periods and I cannot teach them much... Physics, Calculous and Vectors as well as Advanced Functions are just too much for me!

As I said before, I hope to be around much more now... Despite only teaching Phys Ed. all last week, I never really received my breaks, as I was always asked to fill in another class.

Well, I think that was a long post. I hope you all had a great weekend. It's hard to believe that another Rudolph Day has arrived! Only 8 months to go until we reach the most Magical Day of the Year!

Have a great Monday, everyone!

Hope your day at the new school goes well! xx

 

[snowflake22]

OH UGGGGH!! So glad you were able to remove it! I just started Gracie on her flea/tick meds a couple weeks ago. YUCK! I'm sure Har is happy that thing is gone!

Thanks!
I'm sure she is! They are so smart. I think she was trying to tell us, we just couldn't figure out why she was acting so off. Poor girl <3

Good morning everyone, Happy Monday!
I'm heading out in a few minutes, I have a doctor appointment this morning. Just a routine yearly exam. I'm going to run a couple of errands afterward then head back home to work on some chores around the house. My youngest has off today, we're going to grab Chipotle for lunch and then do some shopping later this afternoon. That's about it for me. Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Have a good day HMG! Enjoy lunch & shopping with your daughter!

Happy Monday everyone . I'm so glad I have Sunday and Monday off because instead of getting my yard work done yesterday I sat on the couch with my wife all day and watched TV movies on lifetime. wasted day maybe but quality time with her well worth it ..

Sometimes you just need a day like that! Glad you enjoyed! Happy Monday!

 

[Holiday]

Morning MMC! Hope you all had a great weekend!

Happy Rudolph Day FKB!

Speaking of snow ... It's snowing... and hailing. It's mixed with rain so not sticking though.

 

[snowflake22]

Sorry to hear you were up some of the night. I hope the coffee is kicking in!!! Have a wonderful day!!! Hope Har is having a good day too! xx

Thanks, Holiday~
It is getting me through right now
Har is hanging in, according to Adi. Fingers crossed the tick wasn't in long enough to share anything.
Hope you have a fabulous day!
xx
