Sesame Street

Busy day today...started with Alex's ski course. She's pretty good, but she still can't stop. Important thing is that she loves it. She goes down the big hills between the instructor's legs. At least she's not afraid. Now the only one left is Gilles...He should start next week...I hope.
After the course, we rushed home, ate, changed and went to Sesame Street Live. I wasn't too impressed. Kids kind of liked it but I think we all found it kind of long.

I didn't end up scrapping a lot yesterday...I spent half the day on Facebook!!! That's why I don't want to go there...you look up and the day is gone! But I found a bunch of friends; Milene (from PEI), Kim Michaud, Sylvie Levesque, Tommy Lavoie, Frank Parent, Bonnie Chassé and a few more I forget. Chatted with Tommy for a bit. Wow! I haven't seen him in over 15 years! It was great to hear from him. Nice to see photos of everyone.

Last night we finished the first season of 24...borrowed from a friend. I liked it, it's very good...but it's too long to watch in one shot and I couldn't wait every week to see the next one so I think I'm already giving up on 24. So I'm having a glass of wine, think we will watch a movie and go to bed early...Nothing exciting planned for tomorrow but we're tired. Especially since I have to go back to work on Monday after being away for a week. I always end up paying for being away!

Here we go!!

Ok, this is my first attempt...probably my last attempt at blogging. I find this would be a great way to keep my friends and family up to date on our lives. Problem is...I HATE writing!! With a passsion! So for those of you out there who don't get any news from me...that's why. I miss you, I love getting your news...but writing back I can't stand. Call me and I'll talk to you for hours...

So, I'm willing to try something new. Another thing I hate more than writing is writing in French. So to my francophone friends and family, I appologize, but I'm pretty sure everyone can understand and read English. It's English or not at all.

So, I'm just getting started and I don't have much time. This blog will get updated and photos added as I go, but right now it will be pretty bland.

For the current news....well, Dominic had the stomach flu this week, Alex has had a cold all week and Gilles also got the stomach flu last night. I WILL NOT GET IT!! That's it, positive thinking.

I'be been in training in Kanata all week for our phone system. Yeah, some people go to Miami, San Diego, Denver for training....I go to Kanata! But, I'm the very first person certified on Mitel I&M 3300 ICP Advanced!!

Alex started skiing this year and has been going to her lessons on Saturday mornings. She loves it. Last week she went up the chair lift and down the big hill. So tomorrow she will be going to her course and then in the afternoon we are all going to see Sesame Street Live at the Scotiabank Place (former Corel Center).


Ok, well I am off today (like every Friday; nothing like buying time!) and my neighbor Julie is coming to scrap with me all day!! So I will go get ready and will do my very best to come update this blog very soon with photos and news.

Take care everyone!
