Still here at the dealership waiting for my car. It has now been 2 hours and 20 minutes...

Does anyone know anything about volunteering for Habitat for Humanity? I think it would be a great cause to volunteer for and it looks like fun to build houses for people who need them. I have taken a look at their website and it all looks good except for one thing. I didn't know this but they are a Christian based organization. That's fine but ( Read more... )

Here I am sitting at the Toyota dealership waiting for my car. I wanted to take the shuttle to my house but I've been here for an hour and it just came so I've decided to wait the extra 30-60 minutes longer that it's going to take for them to fix my car. It just really sucks because as I was leaving home my husband got home from a business trip ( Read more... )

I had to take my car in for maintenance service ($135) tonight. It also needed a transmission flush ($98). They just called to let me know that my back breaks are in terrible shape and they need replaced ($495) immediately. Holy crap. They are missing a part so could I leave the car until tomorrow.

I then noticed smoke coming ( Read more... )

This is one of the best chocolate ice creams I have ever had and it's fat free. It's president's choice chocolate gelato. Maybe gelato is fat free anyways, not so sure. It tastes so richly chocolate that it is so yummy. Great for a chocolate fix!

Not sure he believed me. He made some comment about figuring I was taking the day off. It was a Friday before the long weekend after all. I actually wished ( Read more... )

There is a game store in the basement of the Royal York (go figure?). It has every game you could ever imagine. I ended up buying a game called Alhambra. Carrie and I played it last night and it's awesome. We're all going to have to get together to play!

On Thursday night Dave and I went to the Canada's CFO of the Year Awards. It was a black tie dinner at the Royal York and we got to stay over and everything. I got to see how the other half lives when you have an expense account to pay for everything. Some of the expenses included ( Read more... )

Yay for leaving work early! The weather is awesome. I picked up a Tim's on my home, the dogs were so happy to see me (as usual) and I'm going to get my hair cut at 5. Work's been so crazy lately that it's nice to leave early ( Read more... )
