Yay, its finally Friday and it didn't come a moment too soon! Work has been insane - new program and there are all sorts of bugs so we're all going out of our minds! No doubt its supposed to ultimately cut the workload but right now its just making everything take twice or three times as long as it should - argh!

Its still trying to snow and the high during the day is barely thirty degrees. Look at the calendar, Mother Nature. It's May in a few days!!!!

Talladega this weekend - whooo hooo!!!!!!

Woke up to a surprise this morning! SNOW! ewwww, that's a four-letter word at the best of times but especially this time of year. Its the end of April!!!

Had the Q1 dinner at work tonight - real chef, candles, roses, tablecloth, the works. Could get used to that sort of treatment.

Or is Mother Nature just teasing us?

This morning started off cold, then it snowed, then it rained, then it got really really gusty. Now its mostly sunny with blue sky. LOL, nothing like trying out every possible kind of weather in one day, eh? It's supposed to be colder than normal all week, and so far there's a 60% chance of more snow/rain on Wednesday!

Ah, spring in Winnipeg :)

Hmmm, woke up with a bit of a sore back today, was trying to figure out what I'd done then realized it must be because of the mountain of leaves I raked yesterday. Mental note: MUST put leaves into bags before garbage day! Hm, where are the enterprising neighborhood kids when ya really need em?

Race Update: Busch won the Phoenix race, Mikey was second and Junior 4th. Guess its better than a lot of finishes this year. Talladega next week and I think Junior needs to sneak into the garage and get his car back!!!!! I suck at Fantasy Racing the past couple weeks, Denny, Nancy and Kathleen are smoking me - ARGH! Need to get out of the basement, need to get out of the basement.....

Big purchase! 

Nancy and Marv are in town today. Hung out with Nancy and Denny most of the afternoon. Hilarious moment when we walked into the Garwood Grill for lunch and Marv was there with his dad and brother - LOL. We checked out the new Homesense store, its got some cool stuff. Definitely worth a second visit but maybe on a day where its a little less crowded.

Mental note - email WalMart and complain about the crappy check-out service. Why do they have what seems like 30 check-outs and only ever open about a dozen????

NASCAR race is from Phoenix tonight (love Saturday races!!) Junior's won the past two Phoenix races but of course now Michael gets his cars so no doubt Mikey will do great and Junior will suck. ARGH! Whoever had the brilliant idea for the two of them to swap crews and cars needs their head examined.

Finally bit the bullet and decided to jump on the blog band wagon. An online diary of sorts seems like an interesting idea. Here's hoping it's a lot of fun!
