Mmmm. Look at those donuts! I love them.
Renae, if you're brave enough to use that pun, more power to you!!

Ghyslaine, here's your first lessoh. Find the middle of the piano and two black keys in a group. Play the first white key to the left. That's Middle C!! Wonderful! That'll be $15, please. But you did very well!
I wish you lived near me too...sincerely. I hope the day comes when many of us can meet. Laurie, I'm only 300 miles away. And Ghys, I'll meet you in Erie. Hmmm... Renae, Kentucky's not so far away!

Now, Anne presents a bit of a problem....

Hubby was feeling down all day yesterday so I decided to take the day off and make this a family resting day. We started the day with a short walk at the local Roman ruins. It's a beautiful place with Roman baths, a fountain and a little stream (which fills up the pools the Roman had built), all surrounded by a lovely natural orchard... Lovely! It was a lovely day - blue sky, lovely weather and everything was so green with fresh spring grass! Ahhhhh !

I love everything Roman!! I went to Europe when I finished University and spent a couple of days in Rome touring the sites. I could have stayed longer, but we were on a bus tour touring all of Europe. I think I appreciated them even more because I took Latin for 4 years. *sigh* I so want to travel!

Glad you had a great day Anne!

I'm just taking a break from helping Rob insulate the basement. Oh boy, the fun never stops here!

What is it with everybody's obsession with Krispy Kreme?? They just opened their second location in Ontario (down the road from me) and I didn't like them at all!! Way to sweet for me, I couldn't even finish one!!

Have a good day everyone!

It's going to be a pretty lazy day for me too. I slept in to about 11:30, even with Trent trying his hardest to get us up around 8:00. I had the strangest dreams, though. I dreamed everything got flooded, like biblical flooded, but it was really cold and I was the only one in my family who knew how to scuba dive, and I was trying to get all the valuables before the water froze over. Really strange.

Hope everyone's having a great Saturday. I hate coming in so late on the DT because I can't answer everyone!

Now that spring is almost here (and I'm really looking forward to it), we got our first snowstorm of the season!! YUCK!!!!

We probably got between 4 to 6 inches of new snow. I WAS planning to go shopping with a friend after work, but we decided to wait until next weekend instead.

My back has been sore from work lately, and it was really bothering me today, so I did manage to stop at the drugstore to buy an infrared heat massager. I tried it out when I got home and it really seemed to help, my back is feeling sooooo much better!!!!

Anne, I hope your hubby can get a definite diagnosis from his doctors soon!!

Laurie, Snowball is just now getting brave enough to not run every time I vacuum.

Have a nice evening everyone!!

laurie - ed LOVES the vacuum. he watches it while i use it to make sure it's not stealing anything, but he does that when we have company over, too. he'll even let me vacuum him.

lorie - yuck! sorry you got snow. i'm sending you some warm thoughts right now!!

 

[kiwideus]

i vacuumed kahu the other day - he was loving it, just as well as he is deaf LOL

 

[katl8e]

As soon as the vacuum comes out of the closet, Opie and Rowdy disappear. If it is just sitting there, Rowdy will come and check it out but, as soon as its turned on, they're off and under the bed.

Trent's my brave baby boy with the vacuum. He hisses and swats at it, like he's protecting me from the horrible monster.

He now growls and hisses at people coming to our door since they have to walk past the window in the computer room, even if the person coming home is hubby.

Our great guard cat. The funny thing is that he has the tiniest little hiss and growl, you can hardly hear him...a little kitten has more scaring power than he does.

I'm laughing as I read this. I had big plans for Nakita being our 'guard' cat when we first brought her home. Unfortunately, when someone comes to the door she is almost 'panting' with excitement! She has a look on her face like: Oh, come in and look at me! Yes, a new slave that will pet me!!

At least Trent growls and hisses. My cat just looks needy!

Ok, ok, I know it's not Saturday anymore, but... Kass, at least your visitors get to see your cat! My grandmother, who is in her eighth decade of life, had to get down on her knees and look under the bed to see him! My brother gets under the bed as far as he can and begs and tries to bribe with treats, and it hasn't worked yet!

He's so purty, I wanna show him off, but he just prefers the company of the dust bunnies to my company! Waaahhhh....
