....and she is off for a two day vacation celebration! Good on you, Patty, for doing something wonderful to celebrate your birthday – and may you win a fortune at the casino haha or at least have a nice supper. Ontario government is making some big changes to the Lottery Corporation and announced closure of three slot machine locations at horse racing establishments and rumour has it they want to put up a big casino in Toronto. They want to tap into the millions/billions of dollars available but at same time show acknowledgement to the "addiction" aspects of gambling as is being reported by help groups trying to cope with this epidemic.
We went to see the Tommy Hunter Farewell Tour last night. Well worth the free tickets that we received through the radio station. It really was a fabulous show and I enjoyed myself immensely. He is now 75 years and still able to entertain with songs and stories. I had forgotten that he played the fiddle and last night put on a good display of these talents as well. Harry also won a $20.00 gift card for McDonalds and so for lunch we went there to spend the card. OMG – although it was lunch time and it is March break, I repeat OMG! The food is actually awful and the place was a zoo! But it was free so I guess I get what I pay for???
Milder weather allows some flexibility in manning the greenhouses but still requiring some vigilance on my part. I did the watering and transplanted some seedlings today but thoroughly enjoyed the sun and outdoors. I agree Patty, the sun is a big incentive and I cannot wait to get out more and enjoy it by puddling around. The dog loves to be out with me and she is unleashed and enjoys wondering around the yard and so far stays close by.
Well, I must go and get supper ready and then think whether I will stay up to watch Republic of Doyle ( 9 pm on CBC). I watched it last Wed night for the first time in two years and realized how much I enjoyed it having being a dedicated follower the first season. I had to stay up to pump water outside so spent the time revisiting this show which I like very much. I stopped watching because of the late timing but I think if it brings me pleasure – why Not?? Take care for now – let us know about your trip Patty – and Cathy, happy "29's".
