@cath007 , it is hard to say but I have noticed letter mail still seems to be a bit hit or miss. Weather it is Canada Post of people sending it, that is something we will never know but I know a few things I was waiting for came much later than normal.

Cath-sassy is right our mail is still slow or a bit behind ,but i emailed companys i got a 2.00 cashmere cpn from kroger,bolthouse cpns for drinks,kozy shack for their rice pudding.

Well woke up at 3.30 this morning i was sick to my stomach twice ,so i guess i have a cold /stomach bug.So only drank gingerale and had a mushed up banana at 1.00 p.m plus a few crackers.

My stomach is feeling better now .

Good Morning Everyone,
Woke up to a layer of snow on everything and it is still coming down. It is a light snow but still snow. I have to be honest this is really starting to affect my mood. Even yesterday every time I grabbed my phone it said snow starting or stopping, we did not get any yesterday but mentally I really need some nice weather. Some nice sunny days maybe staying in the positive temperatures.

I did not want to get up this morning but when I finally did I talked myself into washing the bedding. I really did not want too and kept telling myself I could do it Monday but decided better to just get it done and then I don't have to think about it.

I started writing our meal plan and prep list last night. I am lacking variety right now but I also feel like I am food a rut where nothing is jumping out at me.

Ok, I need to find some ambition and knock some things out but I have to say as I sit here watching the snow continue to fall I really just want to go back to bed and skip today LOL.

Happy Friday Everyone.

On a positive note i am better just a dry cough that can last a few weeks so drinking black tea with honey .

Went to bed at 8.00 p.m woke up at 10.45 to pee then back asleep til 5.45 a.m .

Hi everyone!! Is anyone having luck printing the Vector coupon? Is it gone? Was looking to do another food bank run with the Kelloggs promo at Superstore.

On the bus in the Meadowlands, I spotted wire fencing for Connon Nurseries The Branch location in the parking area in front of Structube but closer to the road.
Voted today (and am wearing the sticker), returned an empty bottle for deposit coins and visited Shoppers and Dollarama (Pepsi Cherry and the zero sugar ones are at Dollarama for less). Millers Shoes has mostly shifted to Bleu Foret and Socksmith socks in the $20 range and up, but some Hot Sox and McGregor socks for $10 per pair still exist. Hope to return as I only has funds for one pair.

@Ciel21 : Father and me voted too because he will works for the election .

Second week Shell station gave me a bag of 8x surplus sandwiches for distribution. Handed them out to all that I met with very satisfied recipients. I am amazed and proud that folks are open to just accepting gifts as presented. Only (maybe) in Canada can we be so able to accept gifts from complete strangers without fear of malfeasance.
