IT FINALLY SNOWED THIS WEEK! (its all melted now tho)

So, Christmas is coming soon and I have yet to finish my shopping. Can't wait to get home and see the family and eat some real good food. Its funny, when you know you should go shopping for presents, how you can always find something better to do.

Thursday night we had a get-together with some of the people I work with out in Braeshore. Played a couple games of pool and got to do some "bonding". I definately ate wayyy to many appetizers that night though.

Friday night the power was out so I went up to Nathan's (he has a wood stove). We didnt do much until the power finally came on. When it did, we watched the butterfly effect 2 on the dish. Got to play around in the snow in the escape too.

Saturday, got up at about 8am and had breakfast at Tim Horton's. Then went and helped Nathan put up plywood in the garage on the ceiling. It was about -12C in the morning. We luckily had a kerosene heater in the garage running most of the day. There was a huge difference in the temperature inside once the ceiling was finished... much much warmer. My shoulder hurt quite a bit after all the overhead work. I had a date with my magic bag that night.

Sunday was a little slow to start off. Went to town and helped Val and Brandon put a door on a trailer. Then we went to the wood shop and started moving some parts. Eventually, we are going to tear down a wall and have the shop twice the size it is now. Then... MORE TOOLS!!
