Just go already

February….29 days of hell. And, you’ll only get to say THAT once every 4 years.

I can honestly say that I am really glad to see this month head out the back door.

It was brutally cold for 22 of the 29 days.

It was a roller coaster ride at my place of employment. Too much stuff going on and too much stuff to deal with.

It was a hard month with both the boys and both the dogs.

It was hard on the hydro bill….cripes! Hello…Hydro People? Yes, we have geo-thermal heating. Yes, not only in accordance with Kyoto and the whole global warming thing (no emissions here!!) but energy efficient as well. Yes, it shouldn’t really be costing us $190….for one month….man oh man!

It was hard on the Cav. There were more days than not where she was heading down the highway at 107 kms and would bog out…just too friggin cold.

It was hard on the computer. Not only did it get re-formatted, it’s gonna get re-formatted again. Something is wacky and I can’t take it anymore. So’s, I’m gonna fix ‘er! Fix ‘er good!!!

One highlight of the month has been the start of our Communicating and Coping With Your Teen workshop. Oh yeah, baby, oh yeah. We gots a whole bunch of new tricks ups our sleeve! And the best part about it, once you start to use these tricks, they actually work! Go figure. Those two boys of ours don’t know quite what’s hit them, or what we’re up to, but they are responding!

And, to end it all, SG decided quality over quantity was the way to go with the red grape. And he’s ticked right off that the “quality” (you can read dollars here – twenty two of them) doesn’t really justify the cash output. I mean, it’s okay. It starts out nice and bold, the nose is awesome!, but unfortunately, finishes with a whimper. It’s really unfortunate. But, I’m racking the cab tomorrow and then putting up a white. I’ll probably bore you with pictures once again. I mean, after all, it is a different colour.

Oh, and I was able to take advantage of the $30 buck coupon for Superstore. Which means the wine kit only cost me $14.

We’re starting March with a Reiki session and a visit to the Crystal Store. I’m very excited.
