fun in foremost

saturday night was a flurry of activity. after announcing my first hockey game for the bow island midget rebels first spud league game at the bow island rink, where they won 8 - 3 over the coaldale cobras (top scorers were cody schussler with 2 goals and 2 assists, and chad weatherhead with 2 goals and 1 assist)

then we rushed to the foremost legion to celebrate ray's boss' 50th birthday. dj services from etzikom kept everyone on the dance floor til the wee hours of the morning.

sunday, my do nothing day was more like a do everything day. i must have had ants in my pants or something. after cleaning the kitchen i mowed the lawn (gotta love a riding lawn mower), unloaded a trailer full of lumber for the deck addition (that's in stall mode at the moment) and then got the skill saw out and measured and cut old fence boards to screw under the deck to protect the dog house from drifting snow and wind this winter, then it was into town to pick up screws (deck screws too long for that job) and pick up the new dog house. WOW - maggie's got a doggie condo - it's HUGE! why i need to build them a shelter beneath the deck is truly unessessary because there is room enough for a queen size air mattress - of which we have plenty, and even a heat lamp - one would be quite comfy -but not that i should mention cuz if i ever end up in the dog house - only thing i might have to complain about is the flees! maggie (yellow lab) and oreo (black lab) are in doggie heaven especially with 6 cats to chase as well. pepsi, cola, sprite, pepper, crush are being chased off their favourite deck but mama josie is letting the dogs know who's boss!
