This morning I’ll be leaving the station early to make my way back out to Assiniboia for the Spring Fever Lotto. I always enjoy the drive. One thing I’ve noticed during my trips to Assiniboia over the years is the amount of cop cars I see on the highway…none. I can’t recall the last time […]
Friday after work I took our cat over to get his nails clipped, as I blogged about yesterday. After the cat and I made it home my wife met us at the door with the words, “Our power is out.” Great. Seeing as we didn’t feel like just sitting around on a beautiful afternoon we […]
Friday morning after work I got home, grabbed the cat, and took him over to get his nails clipped. He doesn’t use his scratching post anymore so he doesn’t shed his old claw sheaths like he used to. We used to find those darn things all over the house. That means every couple of months […]
Yesterday morning I headed out to do my usual Sunday run to the grocery store. Seeing as I needed some fresh baked goods I wasn’t going to the store that is nearest to our house. Once I was in the store I grabbed a basket, pulled the list from my pocket, and made my way […]
Writing a daily blog isn’t always the easiest part of my day. Sometimes I’ll sit down and know exactly to what I’m going to blog about, while other times I’ll sit for 10 minutes trying to come up with something. Sometimes I’ll think I’ve written a pretty good blog, while other times I’ll cringe as […]
Yesterday afternoon I was in the kitchen getting some things ready for supper when Max decided to go crazy at the front window. That’s not unusual at all. He’ll bark at anything. People, squirrels, rabbits, other dogs, and the list goes on and on. If it moves, he notices. His barking got to the point […]
On the drive into work this morning I saw a man on 4th Avenue who appeared to be taking a whiz against a fence. As I got closer I realized my eyes hadn’t deceived me, he was indeed having a tinkle. Beside him was a huge garbage bag, which I’m guessing did not contain a […]
Over the weekend I was out doing my usual running around when my phone rang. There’s only one person who calls me while I’m out shopping and it’s always my wife telling me she forgot to write down an item on the shopping list that I already have in one hand while strolling down the […]
Every morning when I roll up to the front of the station I always look around and scout out the street before hopping out of my vehicle and making that 4 foot walk into work. I’ve seen a lot of people wandering the street over the years, but I’ve never been accosted. This morning when […]
Thank goodness we had freezing temperatures overnight which froze the pool of water surrounding my vehicle, otherwise I would have had to enter through the passenger side door. Here we go again. Lots of water on the street and a sewer that just won’t let it drain. It’s a pain in the a**! During the […]
