hi people! back from my sojourn on salt spring. makes me shiver when i think of it. i have never seen so many 60-ish women with bobs - all from north/west van, calgary. need i say more. just like the sheep on the isle, they wear their track suits (tie dyed of course) and prance. yuk. they have totally made that island uninhabitable. couldn't wait to get off. needless to say, a shitty time had by meself. husband had a great time taking a rammed earth course, should have signed up. oh well, such is life. i cried when i looked at what they have done to that wonderful isle of my youth. so sad. hopefully, it is not too late for some of the rest. pender is definetly gone, and mayne island is heading the same way. walking the tight rope i guess. i think i have the monday morning blues......

Well I gotta say people I was pretty impressed with galaniomama's rowing abilities...shocked would be more like it 8O The women can actually row! There she was at the stern...I got a good view to because I had my binoculuars...no a drop of sweat on face either...she looked like she was enjoying it!!! There you go...I figured she would be out there crying...and there she is acting like a viking 8)

I do know Stu....he's Zoe's dad :D

Yeah Mondays and Fridays are usually killer. Worse right now since I'm still slogging through their archaic system of DOS and paperwork. I'm slowly getting there though. Not much else is new, just work and home life. :)

RE: round the water coole

We just wanted a really cool name for her. After many baby books we decided on Zoe. Her middle name is Alexis, we had a greek theme there :lol: It's a good strong name though. Zoe means "life" and Alexis means "defender of man" :)

whoa, that was kinda harsh. what about the fact the flask you take when you go 'fishing' has something pretty strong in it. enough to make the fish wilt, that's for sure
