Dooly looly .. is a snooker place in this small town.  It’s like a bar.. but cheaper..  but everyone smokes in there.. after 7pm.  So it gets quite uncomfy for me – I hate smokes.  I never stepped foot in this place since my kid was born – and i’m not really missing it.  But there is really nothing much to do in this town. So work and home for me everyday for the past 9 yrs.

Told you i had to replace some shingles on the roof.  The damn developer didn’t do a good job. .and whoever put the house together didn’t do a good job.  Slackers ..!!!  and now we don’t know how much this is gonna cost us.  Oh well..!! can’t have everything good eh.

Yes.. the snow says it all eh.  We are snowed in on New Year’s day .. so far we haven’t lost power.. thank God..!! “touch wood”.  How was your New Year..??

As we ushered the old year out .. and welcome the new year .. i feel pretty pleased with myself.. for raising funds.. for my kid’s school.  Asking for money from strangers.. is no easy feat.. i’ll have to tell you .. but when i think what an unselfish act it is.. and the many kids that will enjoy the playground because of my hard work.. i can tell you it’s worth a million bucks.

The Wii remains the most sought after gaming system once again this year, even though it had been launched 3 Christmases ago to date.  The Nintendo Wii was sold out a month ago even though some folks from this town were crazy enough to queue up outside the local mall for it as early as 6.30am.  2 weeks before Christmas we had walk-ins, calls and many inquiries as to how they can get a Wii, since Walmart and even Amazon were sold out.  Some customer had tried eBay but most of the sellers were trying to cash in on the demand for it, but in my opinion it’s not worth paying that kind of price.

As much as I hate losing a sale, if we had none in stock there is really nothing we can do and the customers needs are very important, so we direct them to Lightinthebox.com because they have a large inventory of Nintendo Wii consoles.  Starting at US$35.99 with 10 Free Games and a 26 in 1 Sports pack, even Walmart can’t beat that.   For all your electronic needs, games and any other gadgets, check this site out first – good things must be shared, right?  So if you are still looking for one or know of someone who is, spread the word.

What a day..!!!  it was horrid..!! that’s all i can say for now.  I never want to ever have another go on this kinda weather.  It is not only scary.. !! boy..!!! we could have lost our lives.. from the cold because power was gone.. and all.  It was the longest few hours .. before we headed to a friend’s house to get some heat.  A wood stove is the way to go .. i guess next year for our spring project.  But once we put in the stove .. i’m sure we will never get another storm.. given our luck.

The lil’ lunch bag was what we bought from the kid’s school for a fund raising thing.  A week ago, we received another one .. which said it was back ordered.  We promptly returned it to the school.. because it doesn’t belong to us.. and ours had arrived.  Honesty is very important to me.. and if i want my kid to be honest.. i have to set an example.  For all those cheaters out there.. if you are cheating . .to get a measly few bucks, you know your kids will also grow up and cheat you too.  Instilling good morale is darn important.. and it starts with you .. and if you think they don’t know.. man .. are you in for a rough ride in the future.
