We had an impressive

lightning/thunderstorm roll in here about 7:40pm. It was m assive. I aven't seen rain like that in a long time. Have we seen the worst of it yet? Probably not. 

Scottish Rite in the Edmonton Valley at least comes in 3 sections: Lodge of perfection, Rose Croix, and Consistory. The first 2 were the same fee. I assumed the last one in October. The last one like all the rest are 3 days each. followed by a complementary breakfast. I wont do the breakfst in October because our Lodge jusrisdiction annual meeting is on the same day. The fees are paid for the Consistory. I over paid thinking they were all the same amount. I overpaid by $50. The lodge secratary suggested the office uses that for next years dues. Good idea.

In the morning before I head out of here for BoB at about 7:30am tomorrow am, Anne wants to go pick me up some Tims breakfast. 

I might drop by Long & McQuade on my way home and get some new headphones because, the Bluetooth ones have a tendancy to make my wireless mic drop out in Fl. Sudio. 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.

Well into December

and no posts. I've been busy with Chapter & Lodge lately, and I want to join Scottish Rite? Its on my bucket list at some point.

It took awhile but we're finally getting into winter here. We had a snow day yesterday and more on the way. I need to get to the pharmacy at Bonnie Doon Mall anyway,  to get to get my finale 2 shots. I'm thinking about getting them today. We'll see. I have my cleats so I'm ok with getting out there in the cold. 

Next week is our staff party and we're having it out in the West end. That should be fun. It's one bus ride. Anyway, that's all for now. 

iIt's a new month

October 1st.

This morning is another laptop maintenance event. After that I need to get to Rogers to top up my cell phone account. I tried doing this yesterday but I couldn't get cofirmation. My bank isn't showing any info. Once i get the laptop set up, I'll leave out of here at about 10:40am for Bonny Doon Mall, and get this sorted out. I'll get some take out as well for lunch to have at home. .

It's going to take some creative accounting but if I can swing the fee, I hope to join Scottish Rite Masonry. Edmonton Valley. More specifically Lodge of Perfection. After that The Rose Croix, and then the Consistatory to get my 32°. This is all doable I'm looking at joining in February next year. 

The Oilers regular first season game for the 2025-26 season is October 8th. I'll be working that night. Most likely the Oilers will lose that one. I'll follow the scores on my cell phone. As for future games, if I'm not doing anything, I'll watch the games, but I'm not going to go out of my way to watch every single one. Anyway, that's all for now.
