Welcome to my Blog. Anne and I live here in Clareview Edmonton Alberta, with our 2 cats etc. This blog is about my life, rants, politics, books, music production, Sports, some gaming, Freemasonry and some WTF-ish moments that give me pause. Feel free to contact me on my Twitter feed or YouTube channel Shannon on Sounds. Thanks for dropping by
until Saturday Sunday. It's all good now. Anne got all of that out of her system. A day off today.
Tuesday I need to call CRA about my T4's and how I can get into my file to get those
If I can get 50 hours out of this project, I'll get ~ $1,500 including my tax return. That will take out a big chunk of my loc. Anyway, that's all for now.
wild 4 days. I'm still processing everything. Doing the same thing in April, and in October. I was in the Al Shamal building for 3 mights & 1 afternoon.
I've got 2 days off and Anne's giving me attitude about the last 4 days.
destination this afternoon (Saint Albert Trail & 137th Ave), roughly. I thought I'd need to get a bus a train another train and a bus and a cab. Anne suggested, I take the #501 Davis to Capilano mall, get the #53 to Clareview and Then, the #54. I might be an hour or 2 early. The fellow I need to see won't be there today so I need to see if there is anyone there all day, so in case I'm early I'll be inside. Not that it's cold out there.
Trump want's to stop the opening of the Gordie Howe bridge linking Windsor to Detroit. Canada paid for the birdge at a price of $6.4B. Half of the materials for the bridge are both American and Canadian sorced.
On this date in 1902, Dr. Eugene-Louis Doyen of Paris surgically separated Radica and Doodica, Siamese twins from the Barnum and Bailey Circus.
Now my sleep patterns are being compromized. I like to be in bed by 4am or 5am to get about 4-6 hours sleep. Yesterday (thanks to Restless Leg Syndrome) I didn't get to sleep until 8:30am. Yeesh. Anyway, that's all for now.
obvious, I have Monday night RAW to watch this evening, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday the big day.
On the CTV National, we were watching a news news story about how Canadian Doctors are leaving Canada because of being bogged down in paper work. I think that's part of the story. The average Canadian Doctor is being bogged down with unessecary after hour paper work. I read where the average Doctor in Canada, is being bombarded by this red tape paper work. About 90% of Canadian Doctors are stressed out and burned out. If this administrative work was eliminated, it would free up the equivalent of 9,000 full-time physicians. In this country. Its called "Red tape diseas." The other issues is the baby boomer generation. Most of us (me included) are in care centers like this. Plus add immigration to the mix and yikes. Scarry stuff.
project that starts on the 11th. I'll be with AASR for those 4 days. Best I can do is join the crew after Family day. If I can get 10 days out of work for that, then this would be good.
On this day in 1812, the New Madrid earthquake hit. At a magnitude estimated to be 8.2, it was the largest recorded earthquake in the contiguous United States. The town of New Madrid, Missouri was destroyed, and the Mississippi River was said to run backward for several hours.
a nice meat loaf, baked potato, brown beans dinner last night. Delish. She's watching a recording of the opening of the 2026 Olympics.
I knew this was going to happen: The January 2026 North American winter storm delayed preparations for the launch. A wet dress rehearsal of the countdown
I was going out to Band of Brothers today, but I was out 2 times this week and next week I'm out 4 times, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday am for a 4 day seminar. More on that later. Anyway that's all for now.
