Holy moly!

[Lua]

I just read back several pages:

- ew to parsnips
- I'm making stew for supper too, but with pork
- yay for poking
- blank rep means different things to different people
- we get a real tree, but not til the week before Christmas so it can last through to Ukrainian Christmas, and hopefully to Ukr. New Year's
- owies of any kind are icky

Sending names out on Thursday, peeps have until tomorrow to sign up

Lua, weather is just relative to where one is, and what you are used to. For us, this is nothing. We'll be in this deepfreeze for a week or so, then go back into the minus teens for a long time. Usually come end of December to the beginning of Jan., we get hit with the -40s, and once again in Feb. Blizzards are optional, lol!

Im here was filling something out..were getting new benefits starting Jan 1st...wow there pretty awesome Im really surprised. We get a private room in a hospital makes me wanna have a baby now haha AND I can get the D and G glasses I wanted since they upped the vision now! IM SO EXCITED HAHA

That's great - and you def. want a private room when you have a baby!
I'm not impressed that my husband's vision plan only includes the exam, nothing for the glasses - and I need glasses very badly. And I can't get the cheapo ones anywhere because I have an odd prescription with very different eyes so I have to get the high index lenses which are pricey.

A man in a hot air balloon shouted down to an Irish farmer in a field ''Where am I?''
The farmer shouted back, ''You can't fool me, you're up there in that little basket!"

so very true. we were actually talking about that (my dad, FI and I) as we drove around my hometown of Cornwall on the weekend. THe weather there in comparison to here in the GTA is so different. Our winters were normally spent in the -20 to -30 range and although it was cold, it was easily managable. However here on lake ontario, we find the -10 temps feel colder than -30 in Eastern Ontario!
