Eh... Almost got to see JP3D. She agreed to it, but I was supposed to meet a guy coming to look at our septic system this afternoon and he didn't get there when he thought he would. I waited around for a while and then he called and said he'd be by tomorrow. By then it was to late to drop of the kids and get to the 715 movie and I'm to old for the 1030 one. We went and got stuff for DD's Birthday party and ate at Logans Roadhouse instead...

the problem was DW being overly paranoid. Just the water on the hood evaporating. Glad that was it.
 
Morning Guys.

Somoene forgot to tell Mother Nature to turn off the snow tap. We had an inch or so last night and now we are waiting to see if DS's final soccer try-out will still happen this morning. If not, they go Monnday night instead.

On the brag side, he was one of thirty five 12 year old boys from the Province to attend a 2 day learn to train basketball camp being organized by the provincial basketball association. Should be a fun weekend for him and help help develop a bit more as a basketball player.

Have a great Saturday everyone.

Does it ever not snow in Canada???

Congrats and good luck to Declan in his basketball camp.

It hadn't snowed here in weeks so this sucks. Apparently it came up from the south somewhere.

At 4:30 AM, received the auto call from school that the buses would be returning from DC at 5:00 AM. DW and dd made it home safely and are both sleeping now. I got to see some pictures of their trip. Younger dd has a soccer game at 10:30 AM today, and later, I may try to cut the grass. Hope everyone has a good day.
 
Morning guys. DD has her first soccer game this am, should be fun to watch.


Hope everyone has a great day. :thumbsup2
 
All the girls soccer practices were canceled this week because of the rain. All games were canceled for today. The fieldes are half underwater. I think it would be fun to play, we used to, but the fields would never recover. I love that I come down first thing thismorning and my 10 year old is watching toy story.
 
Morning..

I think we lucked out here, no snow out of all that nastiness, just rain, more rain and the occaisional ice pellet and freezing rain. It did try to turn to snow, but no dice. :thumbsup2

Amelia is out right now working on a Water Clean-Up badge for brownies, their unit is helping out with the Rattray Marsh clean-up. Rain was supposed to have ended, BUT it just started up again :headache:

Today's agenda is a whole lot of running about. After a few years our DVR/Digital box is starting to go, so we need to bring it in for replacement/upgrade, and a lot of little errands.

We got snow up here on Thursday.... By Friday it was all melted away.
 
‘Morning all…

It’s the weekend!
That means I now get to do all the work I can’t do while I’m working.


My challenge is to stay in every DVC resort. I have them all except BC, GC, New GF, and Aulani. They will probably build one at Poly before I can get to GC and Aulani.

“It’s a fine goal to be sure…”
No really! That’s a fine goal. I suspect you’ll get ther long before I even get back on a DCL ship. I’d like to be a DVC member myself. Just could never pull it off. The current plan it to hit WDW one last time this summer, and then the next four to ten years will be spent paying for college. After that… If I ain’t dead… maybe we can consider working on the DVC thing together with our sun so that just maybe one day I can treat my grandkids to proper amounts of Disney magic. At least that the current “general” plan.


It is quite clear that the problem is the Hellifiknow::yes::

You may just have the most correct answer there.

Not too bad for a Plan-B. Not too bad at all.

(too old ehhh… you just made my day :lmao: )

Looks like Ron did have the right answer.
Glad it was a non-issue.

Congrats and continued success to your boy.

Glad they’re all back home safe and sound.
We’d love to see some of those pictures.

First game… that should be a lot of fun.
Hope y’all have a great day.

Too bad about the canceled games, but it’s best they don’t ruin the fields.
TS on a Saturday morning is not a bad consolation prize though.

We only got about an inch here and it is still mild so I don't expect it to last very long.

Instead of soccer DS and I will do some shopping today. He needs new sneakers again, the pair we bought at the end of November are now too small. I think there is another growth spurt going on. For me, stopping at a golf liquidation sale.
 
Wife, kids, and MiL are heading to Science City soon. I'm still trying to decide whether I get to go or whether I'm stuck trying to get the tech issues at the other other site resolved.
 
The following conversation happen at lunch today.

DGD1: Grandpa? Is there anything better than Bacon?

Me: No dear, there is not!

DGD1: Your wrong Grandpa!

Me: What could be better than Bacon?

DGD1: More Bacon!!!
 
Afternoon fellas.


Spent the morning and early afternoon doing yard work and finishing up the electrical on my new shed. Now it's time to head off to the purveyor of all things bulk - BJs. Have a great weekend everyone.
