From my e-mail:
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets,
so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason.
If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Jack's Back
From my e-mail:
Jack Bauerisms:
If you wake up in the morning, it's because Jack Bauer spared your life.
Upon hearing that he was played by Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Bauer killed Sutherland.
Jack Bauer gets played by no man.
Osama bin Laden's recent proposal for truce is a direct result of him finding out that Jack Bauer is, in fact, still alive.
Superman wears Jack Bauer pajamas.
Jack Bauer once forgot where he put his keys. He then spent the next half-hour torturing himself until he gave up the location of the keys.
Jack Bauer played Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun and won.
Lets get one thing straight, the only reason you are conscious right now is because Jack Bauer does not feel like carrying you.
Jack Bauer was never addicted to heroin.
Heroin was addicted to Jack Bauer.
1.6 billion Chinese are angry with Jack Bauer. Sounds like a fair fight.
Jack Bauer can get McDonald's breakfast after 10:30.
Go get 'em Jack!

Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Sorry, folks, just have no motivation to write frequently at this time. Will see what Fall brings after some time off from the daily routine during the summer break.

The Office
It has been a while!
What can I say, it's January, and we finally have snow and cold weather. The good thing about living in this part of Alberta is "hard winter" never lasts more than six weeks.
We have had renovators finishing our basement. Perhaps "finishing" isn't the right word, as "finishing" doesn't seem to be what is happening down there. This has been quite an eye opener experience. Despite a glowing reference from a government client, and their own personal more than glowing references to their own amazing accomplishments, fantastic workmanship, perfectionism, etc., be warned, people, it is all for naught.
What we have is shoddy workmanship, with my husband having to tell these guys how to correct their mistakes and giving them guidance all along the way. Bob could have easily done all the work himself, it is a time factor that kills us. He was getting desperate to have his own office space.
So today, for the first time in months, he once again has his very own, private office, with a door that locks. It is painted, albeit very poorly, a cheery spring green, has an amazing spalted maple laminate floor, a huge closet for shelves for all his materials, great lighting, and IT'S WARM!
The only problem, the long commute. Quite a change from roll to the side of the bed, sit up, turn on computer. Now he has to actually get out of bed and walk downstairs. He will adapt to the commute as he revels in his quiet and soon to be organized private domain.
It is a good day.
