Rememberance Day 2007
12 November 2007, 09:40
Well now, how things change here in Canada … weather-wise speaking. First a congratulations to my daughter Emily and her first place win for the Remembrance Day drawing she did at school.

They phoned me from the school this past Thursday to tell me that Emily had won a medal (not which one) for her Remembrance Day drawing and it would be presented to her on Friday. So I went to the school for the ceremony Friday afternoon and was greatly surprised when they called her name for the 1st place winner. Way to go Emily!
First snow … winter 2007-2008
Now on to the ‘Welcome to Canada’ part. I woke up Sunday morning to realise the power was out. I got up and went downstairs, observed the snow-storm, light a few candles and phoned NB Power to tell them my power was out. The man on the phone said they knew, a crew was in the area and the power should be restored shortly. So back to bed. I woke again and while laying there, the power came back on. Emily awoke a short time later and was very excited, “winter is here, can I go outside?” So we had a great day, she played outdoors most of the day and I actually got a lot of packing done. I am moving soon … yeah!
Tag, back to you …
