Friday Afternoon
Hi all,
Well the end of the week is here, for me I have two more days to go before MY long weekend happens!! I get tuesdays and wednesdays off, so my long weekend is out of sinc with everyone else. Walking around yesterday and today you see people with thier campers connected to thier trucks ready to head out to the "VAST CA-NAH-JIN WILDERNESS" for a few days of camping. As a radio ad stated this is Canada's 1st long weekend (and officially it ain't even summer yet). With the great weather we are having, who would't go camping, sadly we are staying put, though we will be having a little patio cookout either Sunday or Monday. Honestly it stays cooler than the last two days that went buy. It gets pretty warm in the aparment in the late afternoon, with nothing but warm air to circulate through the rooms for a breeze. The cats would take about 4 steps then flop out on the carpet for about ten minutes before they moved again.
I hope that everyone enjoys the latest uploads of pictures, nothing to special, on sunday I should be able to post any of Mom's Banff pictures if she would let me, I dropped off her film this morning at my job. I has been a LONG while since I have dropped off FILM!!!
I anyone reads my comments, Dave made a strange comment about the Gulf War and uniforms, for anyone not in the know. We had a fellow (translation: IDIOT) at work who's opinion was that the Gulf War was started by the company that manufactures Military clothing. Apparently there was a surplus in desert camoflague gear, so that dictateded the need to sell this gear to the US armed forces. Needless to say this made for some amusing long nights at the old Fire Dept. Though I hear that there has been a recent discovery of surplus Artic gear found, so I guess an invasion of Anartica will be put into plan soon!! (As an inside joke to any regular blog readers, I am strangely starting to smell that old smell of stupidity right now.)
Any hoo, for an update on Mom, she should be running through China Town right now, and honestly if she doesn't slow down she'll run right through it. It is only about two blocks by three blocks big!!! Tomorrow Roanna will take her to do some more shopping to pick up some clothes, being a long weekend there should be PLENTY of sales going on this weekend.
Well, might as well enjoy the sun for a bit longer, eveyone take care and have a great weekend.
