Week 39: Back At It
Last week was an interesting vacation; not what I expected nor had in mind but for the most part it was productive and we accomplished a few things that needed to be done.
Due to an unforeseen and most definitely unexpected accident we replaced our walk-in closet shelving with some much more sturdier industrial style racking. We also seem to have increased the open floor space in the closet, too. No pocket change for the racking (~$600) but well worth the peace of mind and additional space. The do-it-yourself aspect also made the project less of a chore and more of an accomplishment.
Unfortunately our hapless cat Roo will not be venturing into that closet anytime soon. It was one of his favorite places until he was buried under seven feet of clothing and a myriad amount of boxes and what-have-you items that were stored on the top shelf.
No worries, Roo is physically fine … just a bit nervous; although to help entice him back into his favorite haunt we made sure to allow for a special space and a brand new cat pillow for him to safely sleep on.
Now, re-charged and ready for more fun and games I am getting this week off to a start by catching up on my correspondence and other items of note.
I’ll see about getting some pictures posted … maybe I will even catch one of Roo in his new bed, too.
Vacation: Sept 16 through Sept 23
Vacation! Yes, well, maybe … I have no plans to do any “work” for the next 7-10 days. That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it …

It really is quite simple, especially for those that live in the Golden Horseshoe. This is a region of southern Ontario, Canada that wraps around the western end of Lake Ontario. The area [...]

Adventures in Niagara
We went for a day trip to Niagara Falls today. We had planned to go to the Canada One Factory Outlets mall in the Falls. We also decided to have a look at the pawn shops in Niagara Falls; no particular reason just something different to do. This started us on a bit of a [...]
Lasagna and a Guitar
Christmas lasagna and a new guitar; I’m not sure there is much more I could ask for today. For the last few years I have been half-joking, half-seriously offering or suggesting lasagna for Christmas. I’m not talking about just any lasagna; I’m talking about my Cheesy Mushroom Meat Lasagna. This year I am happy to [...]
Coffee, Tea, or Keurig

I enjoy a good cup of coffee as much as I enjoy a good cup of tea. I also appreciate convenience and quality, too. You may be asking yourself why am I writing this? In a word: Keurig. What is Keurig? CHOOSE. BREW. ENJOY.®It’s how we see the world. It’s how we work. It’s how [...]
