Saturday, February 20, 2016, 1:21:22 AM- Threats work

Although it was never intended to be a threat.
The other day I called to cancel my land line. Everyone in this house now has a cell phone and we just weren't using it. I thought it should be a simple thing to do but it wasn't. I was given sales pitches and refused them all because they were offering nothing I was interested in. Phone scheduled to be disconnected at the end of this billing period. I thought it was a done deal.
Today I tried to open my browser which was hijacked by my provider telling me to call them to confirm the change in my services. So I called and the dude was futzing around asking me to be patient yada yada and then came up with an offer. I could keep the landline, increase my internet speed which I already thought was as fast as I could go and increase my allowable usage by 150gb/month for $2 more than I am currently paying for internet alone.
I took it.
Monday I will call and ask what they can do with my cell phones. One if which currently has no contract and is free to leave their service. I will find out how much they really love me then

Saving money,
ju

Saturday, February 6, 2016, 5:25:18 AM- Random shite and updates

The puppy is settling in extremely well! He is so friggin' smart. I have only had one "I am furious with you!" moment and that was to do with the cat in the previous blog. He had never had any experience with a cat so to him she was fair game. She tried to sneak past him and failed miserably. He went after her like a hound being given the trumpet in a fox hunt. A simple "HEY" has been enough to get his attention but not this time. So I followed him.
Before I even laid eyes on him he knew he was in the wrong. I didn't have to say a word and when I got close he just kept backing up looking guilty as hell until he was in K1's room. I just closed the door and walked away.
Lesson learned.
Tonight the cat was spooked and ran past. He did not budge. Not a ripple of muscle to even indicate he had seen her.
I was so proud of him!! He hasn't even been here for 2 weeks and he is learning SO fast. He is still really a puppy but man he is impressive with his intellect!

My stuff...
I suck as a friend.
I do not forget details about you. I do not forget your important days. I think about you often even if I haven't seen you. I suck because I assume if I haven't heard from you that you are busy and if you wanted to you would contact me.
Stupid.
Yup.
Well tonight I decided fuck that.
I am missing someone that was a huge part of my life. I miss her thoughts that I never would have thunk. I am missing our banter. I am missing our silence which some may find odd but at times I don't need to speak.
We have a date next week

Life is still not easy and I don't expect it will ever be however there are always things to smile about.

Saturday, January 23, 2016, 2:41:27 AM- It's the little things

In May of last year we rescued a cat. Many people rescue animals and I applaud you all. However this one was "unadoptable" according to everyone, vets, shelters and the last family that was fostering her. She was going to be put down the following day and we took her.
I wish she could talk but then again I really do NOT want to know what she endured to make her so terrified of absolutely everything. Poor little girl is only 3.
As I said we have had her since May. For the first few months we never saw her. Eventually we found her hiding spots and then she changed them. A few months ago she had started to furtively move around during the day. Not too long ago she started playing, not on the same floor we are on but we can hear her up or downstairs. Not all that long ago she started to walk past us, not confidently but casually or as casual as you can be with your nerves vibrating just below the surface.
You get the picture of how damaged she is and will understand why I am so bloody thrilled that just now she walked past me stopped, turned around and rubbed on the foot rest of my chair!
There is hope for her. We always had hope. We had a pet we never saw and never spoke to when we did for fear of spooking her. We can speak to her now. We still don't reach out to her when she passes but she will sit and listen a safe distance away and now this HUGE step.
I am thrilled for her to be feeling confident enough to get that close but I am somewhat concerned because on Monday we have a new critter coming. She has done well with the dog we puppy sit so I am hoping she will do as well with the one we are giving a forever home to.
It is going to take her some more time but I think we will eventually have a cat, a real cat like they are supposed to be.
Smiling,
ju

I ripped the old calendar off the wall. the nail went flying, I had to scramble around to find it and think I got the new one on the wall before 12:01
Next year I hope I am at least in the same country as the man I should have been kissing.
Happy New Year.

Thursday, December 24, 2015, 7:47:15 PM- While I would prefer snow

This brought a smile to my face.

10:55 AM EST Thursday 24 December 2015
Special weather statement in effect for:
?City of Toronto

What a difference a year makes, or two for that matter.

Two years ago, a crippling ice storm, dubbed the Nightmare Before Christmas, was affecting millions of people across portions of Southern Ontario. Last winter, the words 'polar vortex' were on many people's lips. However, this December and holiday season have been extraordinarily mild and snow-free.

A deepening low pressure system over James Bay will track roughly towards the North Pole on Christmas Eve. As a result, balmy unseasonal breezes have allowed temperatures to rise well into the mid teens in many areas early this morning. Many temperature records for Wednesday were broken and more are expected to tumble today. And not only will it be mild, but abundant sunshine should grace many areas today as well. Cooler conditions will work their way in today on the wings of quite strong southwesterly winds. Wind warnings are in place in some regions east of Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. Travel conditions should be very good for everyone, except for perhaps one special person and a herd of reindeer, who probably prefer a blanket of fresh snow.

A quiet, mild Christmas Day is in store for most areas with good travel conditions for one and all.

Happy holidays from the Ontario Storm Prediction Centre!

I hope you all have a safe and happy Christmas.

Thursday, December 10, 2015, 7:59:11 PM- I found this rather interesting.

As someone who learned to type in chat my punctuation, use of capitals etc. is something that doesn't come naturally and that has always been ok given the medium. Short forms, incorrect spelling and lack of punctuation have become like signatures if you will. Each person who chats or texts has their own way of communication via quickly typed messages. This is so evident in some cases that I have been able to tell when a new person is not so new and in more than a few cases I have been able to figure out who it is just by the way they type.
This article really resonated with me because I have always and for no good reason judged people who chat with perfect typing skills as being "uptight". It is a first impression like any other and of course is not always accurate but there you have it and apparently I am not the only one to think so.

[url]https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2015/12/08/study-confirms-that-ending-your-texts-with-a-period-is-terrible/[/url]

Now if someone is typing more than a few sentences the lack of proper punctuation drives me insane but for quick communication that period does convey a negative feeling.
The English language is going to hell and apparently I am going with it

But in other mediums on the computer bad spelling and grammar drives me mad. I didn't realize my use of grammar upset others. Good to know!!! " - gpflem

Sunday, November 29, 2015, 10:34:05 PM- I haven't

baked in years other than the odd loaf of bread. I haven't had to. As K1 got older and learned to there was no need. Always to my mind anyway the worst part of baking was the clean up so the rule is you bake you clean. That very nicely got me out of the whole mess.
I don't know what possessed me but this week I decided I was going to do some baking for Christmas. I shopped for the ingredients and today was the day. I was actually looking forward to it.
This is where I should tell you that a few months ago I got a new oven. I have been loving it but have only really used it in the most usual ways. I had not yet baked anything in batches.
And so I began. Shortbread cookies. Simple but I had forgotten how much a pain in the ass it is to do the cut outs and the decorating so the first batch went in kinda decorated but already I was getting frustrated. Those stupid little candy balls kept rolling off of the cookies. The timer went off. I pushed the button and then put in the second batch which looked a little worse than the first because I just couldn't be bothered to be so finicky already.
Sample time. Yup the first batch was good
By the time I had to start cutting the 3rd batch I was done so just rolled the dough into a log, cut it and dipped them in the candy then flattened them with a fork.
While they were cooking I sampled the second batch. Hmmm not quite cooked enough so I left them on the cookie sheets and decided to put them back in for a few minutes when the third and last batch came out.
The timer went off and as I was taking the last batch out they didn't look at all cooked. Hand out of the oven mitt and the oven wasn't even hot.
This is when you should ask me if I read directions. The answer is NO.
When I hit the off button what I had done was turn off the oven and the timer. Had I looked a little closer I would have seen there was an off button solely for the timer.
While not a total disaster it did take a lot longer than I had planned which got me out of making the gingerbread that was next on my list. I think I will leave that chore up to the baking expert.
Well intentioned,
ju

Saturday, October 10, 2015, 9:40:40 PM- Whew!

2 pies made.
Squash and stuffing ready to go.
Turkey mostly thawed.
The house looks pretty good too.
The beauty of all of this preparation is the knowledge that I can be a lazy ass for the rest of the week living off of the inevitable left overs

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canucks.
