School Starts

School starts in a few days – and even though we had gotten Chloe’s stationary and shoes a month ago – we haven’t gotten down to putting her names and initial down. So today – being Sunday – we decided it was time to do it – we are procrastinators as you can see – hahaha!! but being so busy with the store and our online work – you all can’t understand and excuse us of being slack. Chloe’s stationary came up to about $45 – plus we have to give the school another $6 upon returning to school for a diary/calendar. We are kinda excited as well as chloe – who is looking forward to school this year – we hope that this year would be just as good as she did with Mrs Bower and Mrs Boudreau. Both teachers are great – they really took care of chloe and were understanding towards my “helicopter” ways. But like last year – I’m gonna concentrate on Chloe alone and her class and her teachers – the rest – I’m gonna take a back seat.

U2

U2 is coming to Toronto !!! yes ! you heard me right! Ahhh..! talking about U2 brings back so many good memories. Yes ! I grew up listening to U2! and yes ! they have been around for a long time – 30 yrs. I was in my teens too when they started the band. Irish guys and so handsome ! we all went ga-ga over all of them. So who do I liked? Bono of course!! and he still looks so good now – at 50. Wished they were coming to Halifax in November instead of Toronto but for those who are in Toronto and want some U2 tickets, make sure get yours really early – coz’ i hear they are sold out on every concert. Dreamy, dreamy I am now – and plotting to get to Toronto if I can in November – afterall, you don’t get to go for U2 concerts every other month eh. And I leave you with this you-tube of one of their many good songs – bringing you back to yesteryear.

Hurricane Earl Coming

Every year we are hit by some kind of hurricane – and for the last few days – warnings had been going on non-stop warning on the radio. So everyone here is speculating if it will hit us. At the morning’s forecast from the Canadian Hurricane Center – it is said to be Cat 3 for Hurricane Earl and likely to affect Atlantic Canada this weekend and we are in Atlantic Canada – for those who do not know by now.

Am I worried? Nahhh!!! we are at the lower part of Atlantic Canada and even if we do get hit – the impact will probably be very little. We will lose the power and some trees will fall down and some rain will come – but I cannot foresee us being hit big time. We survived all sorts of weather here for the last 10 yrs – i think I will survive this one. But if you don’t see me online this weekend – you will know why eh.
