Is spring really here?  I certainly hope so and this weekend’s weather has been beautiful, nice enough that I decided to wash both cars and get rid of the winter grime.  Yeah it’ll rain tomorrow but that’s alright it’s nice to see the cars shiny for a change.

In the 3rd photo you can see where someone scratched my car, from the front fender all the way to the back, not sure why someone would do that, maybe they were jealous or something.  Anyway I put some wax on and hopefully it’ll dull the line, if not well there’s not much I can do beyond that. I don’t really like black cars but clean the RX350 looks pretty good. 🙂

Saw this and makes me wonder, another pandemic around the corner?

A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered.

Between this or bird flu I wonder what the potential for another pandemic is.  I certainly enjoyed the lockdowns and staying at home (since I’m naturally an introvert) but I doubt governments around the world can pull that off again, unless a new pandemic has a high mortality rate but maybe we’ll see a return of social distancing and masks.  I mean the latter is good if you’re sick to minimize spread but yeah I wonder what the future holds.

The other day I went to back Maggie’s car into our garage so I grabbed Brandon’s jacket to use as it was the closest thing and we’re about the same size. I noticed in the right pocket there was a notebook which had some drawings in it & a pencil and in the left he had a stick (a nice one I have to admit).  All I could think of is how he’s still my little boy for now and that I wish I could freeze time like this forever.  I know he has to grow up, I’m not dreading it as I want to see what type of man he grows into but I know everyday that passes, he gets a bit farther from the little boy I remember.

On Friday Brandon fell on his butt at school and has been hobbling all weekend so we didn’t really do much.  Saturday we played a bit of Pokemon Go with our local group in Oshawa, Brandon wants to get to level 50 (he’s at 47 right now) and it was a good XP grinding event. Sunday I finally lit the gas fireplace, the piezo lighter’s not working for some reason so I took the protective glass off and lit it manually with a BBQ lighter.  Other then that we hung around the house so it was pretty relaxing which is nice. 🙂

I thought this was pretty funny, I don’t like the Liberal party of Canada or Justin Trudeau so when I saw this I kind of went WTF!

Maggie bought this measuring cup and I told her I’m going to throw it out lol.  The label is not coming off easily, this piece of junk, useless just like my PM.

20 years ago I had the honour of marrying Maggie and my god where does the time go.  Like all couples we’ve had our ups and downs (with the ups way surpassing any of the down times) and I’m so thankful with how my life with her has progressed.  I can’t thank her enough for changing my life and am excited to see what the future brings. She’s my best friend & partner in life, I simply couldn’t ask for more.

Thank you & I love you Maggie, here’s to many more years together.

Can’t believe how quickly 2024 went by & would like to wish everyone a very happy, healthy and prosperous 2025 to everyone!

I’m enjoying the Liberal party implosion quite a bit but that’s not what I’m here to chat about.  Just bragging that Maggie and I are going to Cancun a bit later today and woo just in time for a cold snap to hit Oshawa.  Brandon is staying at home & my mom is going to be watching over him so it’ll just be the two of us.

Sorry for the lack of updates (a common thing said huh) but just wanted to tell everyone that I’m off for the rest of the year woo and won’t go back till January 6th 2025.  I’m very fortunate to work a job that I enjoy but even then, I’m going to like having the next month off it’ll be great. 🙂
