What we've been up to lately
Hi all, not too much has been going on up here in Alliston lately. Just going about our daily lives but a few things of interest lately.
We went away this past weekend to Thornbury where my parents have a timeshare condo overlooking the bay. It's a real nice place and we got to do a bunch of swimming, which Connor really loved. It was nice to get away for the weekend. Next year I'll have to bring my skiis because it's very close to the Blue Mountains and lots of ski hills are close.
I have only two weeks left in my contract at Honda. Then I'll be riding the pogey train for a while. Hopefully I'll get a call back for full-time soon and won't be off work for too terribly long. I don't know how long I'll be able to not work because I tend to get stir crazy after sitting for more then a few days. I got a few leads that I'll try to follow up on.
Connor is getting close to that crazy 2 years old stage and is starting to throw temper tantrums now and again. Other then that he is doing great and is tons of fun.
Yesterday Honda had their Winterfest over at the Rec Centre. There was horse drawn wagon, dog sleds, family skating, free food, maple sugar tasting, and a bunch of presentations by local groups. They had a group that does jump rope and they were doing all these crazy tricks. Connor really liked that. Every year Honda gets one of the Maple Leafs to come and sign autographs. Last year Darryl Sittler was there and this year we had Carlo Colliacavo. I didn't get a autograph because the line was really long I would prefer somebody who has played more then 10 games in the NHL and hasn't been hurt for the majority of his career... Oh well it was still cool to have a Leaf there. |
