I was going to buy an Indy game

on Steam (Haunted Lands) but I need to buy my meds next Weekend, and I already bought Snorkel Synth yesterday. It was C $8. I still might get the game yet. We'll see.

World Laughter Day 2026 is celebrated on Sunday, May 3, 2026. This global event, typically held on the first Sunday of May, promotes wellness, joy, and peace through laughter. 

It encourages reducing stress, lowering cortisol levels, and building community through shared laughter, laughter yoga sessions, and comedy

This week I have lodge practice tonight, laptop maintenace (work) Wednesday, Lodge Thursday, another event Saturday and if there is time, on the way home I can stop at Highlands Hall and get to the festive board for some lunch, and home to watch "WWE Backlash." Anyway, that's all for now.

I met a new brother last night

that mentioned about the Dissability tax credit. Too even the casual observer I'm dissabled. I  tried this DTC earlier this year but it was from a 3rd party. After a bit of research, I learned this to be a scam. I'm going to try this through a local Doctor over the summer. I think it's a long shot I think I'm wasting my time, but I have the summer off so what the heck, eh?

Although accounts of a large aquatic creature living in Scotland's Loch Ness date back 1,500 years, the first modern sighting of the Loch Ness Monster was reported in the Inverness Courier on May 2, 1933.

I've had my Steam account for along time before I bought the 2Tb M.2 drive. Prior to that my hard drive space was down to single digit mega bytes. Now that I have more space and Ram in my current upgrade, I tried again but I was locked out. I  uninstalled Steam, created a new folder/destination in my C drive. I was locked out after that. Then I realized mybe I don't log in with my email but my username. I tried the username, and success. Let the games begin! Anyway, that's all for now.

Ducks in 6

I was hoping for a better result but this year was a tough year for the Oilers. There ws very little urgency in this game. Bring on the Off Season follies. 

Walpurgisnacht, a holiday of pagan origins is celebrated in many parts of Europe-- in Germany, witches hold special ceremonies during the night, celebrating the arrival of Spring. No doubt Panfest will observe this. 

Anne returned with some medical magnesium. Apparently it's suposed to help mitigate RLS. I also took a vitamine C pill as well to help with dry eyes. I'm not expecting these to work over night. Yesterd, I went to bed to early, which was my bad. Anyway, that's all for now.

It's another must win

for the Oilers this evening in Anaheim. Tuesday night they had the home crowd behind them. Tonight, we're in hostile territory. They win tonight, they force a game 7 to be played possibly Saturday night. 

I'm the no.1 Oilers fan , at least in this household. Odds are not in the Oilers favour. I will be watching, wishing them will. Lets go Oilers! 

Late yesterday afternoon, Anne and I headed out to iHop South Park shopping centre. I got the 2 eggs, sausages hash browns, toast for $15. Anne got the sampler and gave me an extra pancake. I paid a $5 tip. Anne returned an Amazon wrong order for me and they credited my Visa right away, so that paid my dinner. Normally, I'd be paying out $35 for breakfast like that. 

Tomorrow night (once I let Gordon know I'll be riding with him) I'll be at Al Shamal for our monthly business meeting. This is the 2nd time I was at the Friday night meeting. Anyway, that's all for now.

The fact that the Oilers

last night forced a game 6 last, blew my mind. The Ducks are a team that are very strong at home, and I doubt lightning will strike twice and the Oilers will force a game 7. It's just one game at a time.

Anne and I are going out for a bite to eat this evening to an undisclosed location. We would have have gone out 2 weeks ago but I had that leg infection. Hopefully it wont return.

Thursday night is the Oilers game, and Friday my AASR brother is picking me up, as its Rose Croix night. Should be a good time. And after that, its Smackdown replay. All glory goes to God. AGLA. anyway, that's all for now. 

Tonight its game #5

round 1 Ducks/Oilers. I'm ok if the Oilers lose this evening. Individually the Oilers had a great year but on a team level, they had trouble winning 3 games in a row. The could only do that once this year. What with Trading Skinner for Jarry and some ok players, that more or less lived up to the hype. Team did ok. Not like last year. Mainly because they faced LA Kings which they seem to have "their number." If they lose, I have Elks football, and wrestling. All is not lost, entertainment wise speaking.

Not that I use Instagram (IG) a lot but I have it activated and it's in my Windows Start Menu. I just discovered this but IG has a free chat feature. This might have potential down the road. 

I had forgotten all about this but the CFL released the Edmonton Elks schedule for 2026 way back in early December. I entered the games in my callendar. Anyway, that's all for now. 

Not much going

around here lately just watching the Oilers being thrashed by the Anahiem Ducks The Oilers need to win game 5 Tuesday night, or they are gone in the first round now under way. I feel their season will come to an end Tuesday.

Friday night, Anne notcied a pastery shop that caught her attention on Whyte Ave. She went on a recon mission to get more detail and the place is called. Paris Baguette.

They had a 2 for one special on a cream puff pastry and she bought me a chocolate treat. Very nice. It's just a few blocks away from my old stomping grounds from 80th Ave.

I had a quiet weekend. No ambition to do anything. I have some eye strain in my right eye I need to check in on this week that developed over the weekend. Almost everyday we've been getting snow here. Anyway, that's all for now.
