Everyone is invited to the Wing family Super Bowl. Supper is at 5 pm and following that there will be a round robin  tournament for a fabulous prize! Long distance entries are allowed even from as far away as Waterloo, Toronto or Florida. The tournament will involve some form of card game so that everyone has a fair chance. Rest up for the tourney!

A guy asked for my phone number last night. I am sure Alisa remembers him… Chad. (Aka The Chad) We are hopefully getting together either next weekend or the weekend after. yea!!!

I am looking forward to the Winger Bowl.

This is the first weekend in a while where Jason and I don’t have anything going on. I’m very excited about that. We’re off to St. Lawrence Market tomorrow morning for a little grocery shopping (which I love anyway) and then the rest of the weekend is free, gloriously free. I’m planning on spending Sunday in my pjs baking. Place your orders for homemade goodies now!

What’s everyone else up to this weekend? Anything exciting?

I have no idea what I’m doing but I’ll be darned if this will get the better of me!! I have tomorrow off and will get my hair cut and clean the house. I got my T4 today so am looking forward to a big refund. Congratulations to my 2 daughters who have done so well on their tests.

Hello all. I have a few pieces of good news. Number one… I found my keys! I know no one really knew that they were missing, but this is very good news.

The other tidbit is the fact that I am working tomorrow! (This normally is not good news, but I have been working three days a week for four months now and the extra day is very exciting) Working Thursdays will not be all the time, but hopefully as the office gets busier Thursdays will be a regular part of my work week.

TaTa for now…

I wrote English and Math tests today. I got 90% on the English test but I don’t know yet about math. I’m anticipating 93.7%. On Friday I have to write an Economics quiz, an Accounting pre-test, and on Monday my Computers midterm. I know it doesn’t sound like anything big, but I prefer to do nothing. I’ll post again when I know some more marks.

By the way, thanks everyone for the birthday partay, food, and gifts.

Andrea’s FHE lesson tonight was Love One Another. At the end of it she had us play an activity called “Guess who loves me”. We were supposed to say something that someone in the family did for us (without saying who it was) and we were supposed to guess who it was. At first we found it difficult to think of things. With family, we often take for granted the loving, simple things we all do for each other. But when a person who isn’t in the family does it, we notice it more. Anyway, once we got going, we could think of all sorts of things that people had done for us (computer help, dinners, birthday parties, babysitting, helping move, feeding us/clothing us, etc).

I remember when Ryan was born, Nanny said that if she lived to be a hundred, she’d see him go on a mission. Well, that was 8 years ago, and she’s still going strong! Only 11 more to go. And then another 5 years for Andrew 🙂

 Happy Birthday Nanny!

Everyone (Alisa, Jason, Nanny, Dad, Mom, Andrea, and Brianna) came over (Lisa, Julia, Andrew, Matthew and I were already here) at about 3 pm. Alisa and Jason brought most of the food (chicken and ceasar salad) and while the meat was cooking, we relaxed in the living room and chatted. We decided to do the presents before dinner. Andrea got a good haul, but her favourite seemed to be a Maurauder’s Map based around Hildaworts. Jason is so good at that paper stuff! Nanny got lots of candy. For dessert, Julia made a cake and Lisa made Andrea’s favourite “sugar dessert”.

We’re just hanging around now after dinner.

Here are the two birthday girls (click on the picture to see a larger version):
