Canadian Corner 06/24/09

well, I did babysit, and it was for 1 1/2 hours.  It wasn't worth my time, and I wont do it again!  Oh well.  I've baked my bread, did more cleaning, that job just never ends, I need YF here!  I took the kids to the library as I was out of books too.  I think I will BBQ some drumsticks and make a marinated pasta salad.  I want to bake, but have no eggs, might just have to run out to the farm.

Do I sound bored?  With so much to do, why on earth would I be bored?

Pat, can I come drive a tractor for awhile?  That would be fun for me, somthing so different!  I think I would wake up feeling 50 years old the next morning though!

JP, you awake yet?  Did you pry your eyelids open with toothpicks?

*apparently, I live in the best province*

Allegiance to Home Province
Those who answered this Angus Reid Strategies survey were asked where in Canada they would prefer to live, with the same income they currently have in their home province. The question intended to gauge how people felt about the possibility of moving, and two provinces—located on either end of the country—emerged as the clear winners. More than 70 percent in British Columbia and Newfoundland and Labrador say they would stay where they are. The numbers show that residents of New Brunswick (55%), Alberta (52%), Ontario (51%) and Manitoba (45%) appear more open to the possibility of relocating. BC is clearly the first choice for those who would move, and is regarded as an attractive destination by 22 percent of Albertans, 17 percent of Ontarians, and 16 percent of Manitobans. Eight percent of Nova Scotians would prefer to live in neighbouring Newfoundland and Labrador, and four percent of New Brunswick residents would give Quebec a try. Ontario is attractive for five percent of respondents in its two neighbouring provinces—Manitoba and Quebec—but garners lower numbers elsewhere.

Good night all -- goodness I feel like a night owl.  hehe

I am going to have to say good night instead of good morning ==Did a lot of in door chores here as it was hot- not as hot as some places but our kitchen faces south and the house is old so we do feel the heat. However it is nice in the winter to have a sunny kitchen.

We did not get the rain we needed brother farmer did so he needed it more than we town folks. We have a breeze tonight and another warm day tomorrow promise.

I did walk down town to the library and got some books that will be good for a sunny day outside.  Some cold grape tang ( it has the most calcium ) for fake drinks--LOL

and no shoes and dog and book and maybe a hat and I will have a perfect day- grand daughter wanted me to travel with her 80 miles to a house picnic but some how my idea sounds so much cooler and I can put my feet anywhere I want too- I do not make good company- on a hot day.

Have a great Thursday and I will try to come in earlier.

huggles me, Meme
