How long will it take ?

How long will it take you after the new year to be able to get the year RIGHT when writting it down ? I know it will take me a while before I’ll be writting 2007 without first crossing out the 2006 that will be on the paper before I think of it !

What is everyone’s plans for New years eve ? We didn’t make any plans, other than to try to have a nice quiet evening at home .

Amanada’s (our niece) little guy broke his leg the other day, sledding down a hill, poor little guy, he’s got a cast from the top of his leg to his toes !! He’ll be going on crutches for the next 3 weeks and then they’ll put a smaller cast on just below the knee. Amanda is also due to have her baby any day now, she’s hoping for a new years baby :)

Last night I took Loralee to get her hair cut and get a few groceries, dropped Jen and Jaycee off at the mall to do their thing while Lora was getting her hair cut, after that we dropped out to Amanda’s for a quick coffee before heading home at 8:00.
Once home I got the bathroom cleaned and started this weeks laundry and got the new set of sheets washed up that I bought the other day at zellers, and got them put on the bed, got most of the decorations put away, just have to take the tree down today.

So today I’ll take the tree down and clean up the house put the christmas gifts away and then Lora and I have to go uptown again, we’re going to get a bag of potatoes from the warehouse where they are a little cheaper. and also go to the bulk barn to get some of the special flour she needs for baking, we’re going to try to experiment a little with the muffin mix she found that she likes, we’re thinking if we mix half the mix with the other flours (which is a decent price at the bulk barn) it will give her twice the amount and stretch her $ a little further.

So since its now just past 1 I really should get at my work or I’ll never finish it all today !!

Have a safe and Happy new year everyone !!!

Well its all over for another year !!

Yesterday Wendell and I enjoyed a quiet lazy day we didn’t even get out of our PJ’s all day.  That was nice!!

Today we got up bright and early and headed to Ch’town to bring the car in for repairs,, we dropped the car off around 8:30 and got our “loaner” car and headed out to enjoy the day, we made stops at Wendell’s work where I met some of the guys he works with and seen his office, then we were on our way to browse around the stores, first stop was the Brick, we picked out a nice new couch that was half price, that will be delivered on the 11th , we’re pretty happy with that purchase, after that we headed to pets unlimited, cuddled with the bunnies and looked at all the fish, then we went to the new Boston Pizza in town for lunch, and then up to  Future shop and the english butler, where I managed to get a bunch of things for friends for next Christmas :)   we stopped at zellers and got a few more good buys in there and were able to scratch off a couple more names from the list for next christmas as well.

all in all a pretty enjoyable day, we didn’t rush at all and just looked around and enjoyed the day.

Our Christmas was wonderful, Karla got her dad a camera for the xbox and we hooked it up and Kev hooked his up and we had a virtual Christmas with Kev and Shan we watched them open gifts and they were able to watch us open ours. was the next best thing to having them home !!

Hope everyone else had a wonderful Christmas !!

Happy New years Folks !!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!!
