Friday Night
Hi all,
the weather is finally gotten a bit warmer, we are still in the double digits minuses, -10, but after - 40 it seems like summer. It is sorta like the gas prices, even though we were paying 60 cents last year, 88 cents seems like a better number since in went as high as 120 cents.
So we can still freeze our butts off, it just takes a little longer......
I fixed the PC that went boom last weekend, cleaned out all the dust while I was in there as well, so wasn't to much of a problem, just had to replace the power supply. Today was I was wandering around doing some more shopping for christmas. Picking up wrap and tags and such, stopped off at the cat hospital to pick up some anti-flaking lotion for Maxine, she tends to flake during the winter, so hopefully this will help her. We have been using a humidifier this winter, and boy does it make a difference. Maxine tends to sleep in our room, and it seems to have helped her as well.
Tomorrow I am off to work, they moved me to the book section, still lifting and grabbing, but at least it is not so heavy as when I was in the seasonal. Time to go for another job. Speaking of jobs the Calgary fire dept, finally is accepting applications, so time to fill out the paperwork (sadly I wasn't expecting this until January, but shouldn't take to long to fill out everything).
We are doing well, right now just watching the Flames play hockey (right now they are down 1), then off to bed, it is back to an early day tomorrow.
Take care
Ian
