Our friend Erwin has been here visiting for the past two days. He’s an old friend of Xander and I that we met on the net and have known for about 12 years now. He is a Dutchie too but sadly lives all the way in Germany so we don’t get to see him that often. Last night we were …

My Chinese friends are here and gone.. they came here together with their son who thorougly enjoyed playing Super Mario Kart while us adults chatted. It was actually a much more enjoyable visit than I thought it was going to be, even with the odd language issue. Sadly though, just before they left my neighbour wendy came down to let …

Today my upstairs neighbour came pounding at the door. When Xander answered I could hear her panic and she was saying “I need Tammy!!” When I asked what was wrong she freaked out telling me something about her cat eating kittens. When I put all the pieces together I found out that she and her boyfriend were out for the …

Overnight I have become my parents.. my parents have become their parents.. and it scares me to death. On March 25, 2005 at approximately 3pm in the afternoon, my aunt Pearly took her last breath. She was in her early 80’s and until this past year they had all been healthy. I was sure she’d live to be 100 years …

Yes, another entry already. That’s the BEAUTY of having one of these nifty blogging programs. I’m a blogging fool now, watch out! Anyway, I was cruising through some people’s blogs and flikr albums and came across these pics. I believe both of these pics were taken in India, but don’t quote me on that. The whole Tsunami thing has really …

Man, what a world we live in. Am I the only one who thinks about the world and how fucked up it really is? OK so I don’t think about it all the time, actually I try to avoid thinking about it at all. I don’t read the paper, I don’t watch the news, I’m certainly not glued to CNN …

Wow this is the first time I’ve done the double entry thing (Wow did that ever sound naughty!!) Anyway I saw a poem on my friend Eric’s website and although I’m not a political person, it did strike a chord with me. So I thought I’d share it as well. It was written by Casey Sheehan’s younger sister Carley after …

I really wish I had some honest and true friends I could talk to who wouldn’t judge, or try to tell me how easy things are when they aren’t. Who aren’t too wrapped up with their own lives to remember to say hello or get in touch. Someone who will just listen and be there… and make me feel like …

Well the weekend is over and it was awesome! Friday night we went to my dad’s cousin Brenda’s place.. it was just the family and we had some pizza and a few drinks. Her daughter Leanne is a few years younger than me and got married while I was away (in August) so I missed it. We watched the video …

Well, nothing better than a good day of shopping to remind you how badly you need to diet! *groan* Yesterday me, mom and Xander went shopping at the Mayflower Mall and as much as I tried to convince myself that they are just making the sizes smaller.. I finally gave in and admitted that it was just my ass getting …
