So I have this dog kennel in my back yard. It is actually more like a condo for k-9's as it has a shingled roof and really large dog house and it measures about 10 feet by 4 feet. The previous owners of the house built it and it despite the fact that I do not have a dog, I have left it standing for future possibilities. Well it has become ( Read more... )

Well I am right in the thick of things at the course. It is very busy right now and I am for once at peace with myslef. Odd it would seem that my work had some cosmic relation to my personal happiness but indeed it does. I am greatful that I am......A. making money.....B. doing something that I love C. With people that I enjoy to spend ( Read more... )

Well another summer solstice has come and gone, the golf course is in full swing (ha ha no pun intended.......no really) and as per usual I am finding myself with little time to play. This is typical for those working within a seasonal industry- it is a take it while you can get it situation and I am not so sure if it is right for me. Sadly, I am ( Read more... )

Today is yard day- I seriously should have spent a little more time in the fall raking leaves but christ- I did 65 freakin bags! I have one tree in my back yard that just doesn't drop leaves until it snows and although I was raking in a blizzard last year- I just didn't get them all ( Read more... )

Holy crap! It's the end of March already. The golf course is beginning to gear up for the season and menu meetings are late- very late. I am really hoping to do some super sexy food this year. Sadly, I doubt the snack bar menu will be changing very much as the cook is well..............let's just say less than qualified to be cooking in a ( Read more... )

So, about a month ago, I got in touch with a person with whom I was involved a very very long time ago. Truth be told, it was my very first love. We were together for about a year and a half if memory serves me- and when we parted, sadly, not knowing what I know now in all of my infinite wisdom- I broke his heart terribly. For years to follow, I ( Read more... )

Well I have been back in Canada for a little over 12 hours. I gotta say that I really miss the lush beauty of Mexico. Everything was so green lush and humid- here it's rainy grey cold and a little bleak. It is taking me some time to adjust to being home- my head is just not grounded yet. I went horseback riding in the mountains while I was ( Read more... )

In the past 24 hours my life went from normal every day existance to full throttle holiday mode. I have been invited to go to Puerto Vallarta with a girl from work- that really,I don't know very well but I have socialized with her a few times and we get on very well. It would seem that her parents own a condo there and have decided not to use it ( Read more... )

SO! I have decided to give a friend of mine a hand out at his restaurant. Granted, it's not exactly fine dining but it kills time and he is willing to pay me what I asked for. The restaurant is located fairly rurally- ok it is in redneck central. It's kind of a pub but he does do some great dishes and the presentation is quite nice so I can ( Read more... )
