How to get... paid...
We won! Well...kind of. The judge agreed with us that the "rentee" should pay for the difference between what we obtained in rental and what we should have earned. But, it did not agree with us about them having to pay for the extra-publicity we had to pay for. So, they'll have to pay only the...

Court day..NO courting today!
My Mann and I are going to court today. We are protesting against some people who were supposed to rent our house in 2007 and back off 2 weeks AFTER signing the contract! Which made us look for others to rent it in a hurry and lower our price as the season for renting was well under way! And the...

You're dead: I hit you!
The laser quest was a hit! Boys and girls had a lot of fun! The "stacker" hit the "dominator" many many times and finished 4th place twice in row, while the "the Kaiser" finished first once and second the second time around, leaving first place to "Pew-pew"! Of course, I'm talking about Son's...

Old, older...oldest
Reading about birthdays, here and there in blogit, made me think of my own age and I started wondering: Am I too old to start all over again? I mean; going back to University and then having to face a bunch of teenagers looking at me in front of the class? Contrary to my grand-mother and my two...

Row, row, row your boat...hem...canoe...
We did get him safe and sound at last! I went straight to school after work and there he was, waiting for his mom, gaily chatting with one of the teachers who was also waiting for her lift. He had a great time: the many lakes they visited were fantastic, specially the "lac vert" (green lake) which...

Miscommunication...of all sorts!
We thought it was yesterday. The bus driver thought it was tomorrow. It turned out that it is today! I'm talking about Son's return from his canoe trip north of Ottawa. So, there we were last night; waiting for a call from Son to come and pick him up at the school. And nothing happening. After a...

A trip in the sun...Nop! A trip for a son!
Son is gone for a 3 days canoe trip north of Wakefield and of course, the weather had to get cooler before they left! It went from around 20 (and higher, In Celsius of course!LOL, not in Faranheit!) to about 0 this morning( that's the freezing point in Celsius, for those of you who are still using...

Is Hitler still alive?
I added a new page on my web-site: German Wilfdlife (it's a bit of a joke, but the pictures are nice!), and while at it, I like to have a look at the comments people left me. One such comment was rather puzzling and I do hope that it was mean as a joke: Is Hitler still alive? That was it. Nothing...

What a great Artist! And so much fun!
Yesterday was the release of my friend's last album (Room for Less) and what a release it was! It was great! The place was full, the musicians were fantastic and Alise was as good as ever! One of her "duo-singer" Benoit, end out being the lead signer for Yes! I was really happy for her; to see such...

A whole week by myself!
I have decided to take a small break from Son this week and thus, I'm spending the week at home by myself, with the dog. (with snail-speed internet!) Son is a good person but as anyone who has a teenager knows, they can get on your nerve some times. The last draw was the meat loaf last Friday. I...
