It’s my wedding anniversary tomorrow

by

You know what? I just remembered that it’s my wedding anniversary tomorrow. Yes I knew it was coming up, but I didn’t realize how close we were to the 22nd until just now. Tomorrow … gee I wonder what we should do to celebrate?

It’s our 13th anniversary. Hmmm with a number like that maybe we should just ignore it. Nah, it should be a lucky thirteen in this case. We’re happy.

Thinking back I believe I can remember every detail of our wedding day, but for the life of me I can’t remember what kind of bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts gifts we gave out. Strange. It was probably jewelery related since Chris and I had been jewelers when we met, but weren’t any longer by the time we got married.

Do you remember all the details of your wedding day or did it just go by in a blur?





Cars and their Boom, Boom, BOOM

by

I’m always up late at night and lately, maybe the last three months, I’ve noticed that a car goes by blaring it’s music almost every night at about 2 a.m. and then at 4 a.m..

I can hear for at least 6 minutes! Can you imagine how loud the music must be inside the car for me to hear it from blocks away? The drivers either already half deaf or soon will be. Now don’t I sound old! LOL

I got a glimpse of the car the other day. It’s one of those suped up models. Big tires, billet grilles, and it looks like it’s had a few types of car kits added to it – you know the ones that make the back bumper look really huge?

One of my brothers used to be really into cars and music. I guess he was just like this guy who’s traveling around my neighborhood late at night.

Ok well this might be exactly my dream house, but I’d like one with many of it’s features.

I love this houses wrap around verandas and upstairs balconies. I think it’s a very practical use of space and well, practically or not I just love houses with upper and lower balconies and porches.

This house is in the Beaches area of Toronto.

Don’t cry over Spilt Milk – Laugh!

by

I guess I’m having a regular Linky Love fest over here today. I figured that while I was spreading the love I should also tell you about Spilt Milk – the blog.

Spilt Milk is written by Tee, a stay at home mom with two boys. Like Lisa, I know Tee from some of the forums that we both frequent.

Tee’s blog is a great site to visit when you want a laugh or when you feel like reading some inspirational stories like the story about the mother of a soldier who’s currently stationed in Iraq and how he wanted his mom to send him some silly string.

Along with humorous posts, funny videos and images you’ll find some mighty cool links such as the ones in one of her recent posts entitled Cool things to do with Google, the virtual pumpkin carving contest, or perhaps the video of the of the guitar player with no arms. I must show that post to my husband!

I really like her post with Balloon Art photos! Now that’s cool.

Poke around her site for a while. I’m sure you’ll find some things that make you laugh. Oh and as you might do with any site that you enjoy – don’t forget to bookmark her site or subscribe so you won’t miss any posts!

B.C. plane crash

by

As I’ve been sitting at my computer trying to get some posts done I’ve been listening to the television in the background.

They just interrupted the show that was on to tell us about a small plane crash in Richmond BC. You should see the damage! The plane is right inside the building! At this time they have no confirmed injuries, although I’d imagine that the pilot might be severely injured or even dead.

The reason why I’m writing about this though is because as I was listening to the news cast the reporter couldn’t get straight where the accident was … she’d say Richmond B.C – a suburb of Vancouver and then she said, once, Richmond Virginia.

Well what is is? She confused the heck out me! The big red banner across the bottom of the screen says “B.C. Plane Crash” so I’m assuming that it really is in Richmond.

The other reason that this newscast caught my attentions is because my brother and his family live in Vancouver and I have some friends that live in the affected suburb. I’m fairly certain that no one I know is affected, but still, when you hear of something bad happening in an area where your friends and relatives live you pay more attention, don’t you?
