OUCH!
Slipped going down the stairs this morning and, landed on my tailbone. The pain seems to get worse as the day goes on. Hope I can move tomorrow! How's that to put a damper on the weekend.
I still have to pack yet. I don't want to forget these, that would really be a bummer!

Future Fire Fighter and Hero?

Day 228 ~ A Tour of the Fire Hall

Wow what a great day! Myself and 4 other daycare providers took 20 kids for a tour of our local Fire Department today. The kids were able to sit in the fire trucks, test the horns, try on the uniforms, and practice with the hose.
Thanks again, Fireman Dave. It was an informative, interactive, and funfilled tour.
When we finished at the Fire Hall, 20 kids and 5 adults invaded the Cenotaph to finish off our adventure with a pizza picnic lunch!
It was all smiles today, I love it!

Day 223 ~ Fergus Highland Games

Day 217 ~ Don't Die Yet!

So, after a 14 year run our fridge has decided to start acting up. The new one will be delivered on the 14th. (please hang on a few more days)
I'll spare you the photo of the fridge...instead, look what I found while cleaning the top of the fridge off.

I wish I could remember when I found it. I'm guessing around 7 years ago. Now I'm on the hunt for a small photo box frame to put it in...it's not going on top of the new fridge, nothing is! (maybe)
