Tales from the Bush in Quebec

I was planning on spending some time in here this weekend and looking forward to commenting on some of the posts I've been reading as I pop in and out during the week. Then along came the Rug rats for their sleepover. B, the little blond who still pushes the envelope as far as he can, disobeyed and... Sign in to see full entry.

I have promised myself a Blogit Feast this weekend. I do try to drop in everyday and read a couple of posts on the run...need my fix...and I’ll grin or shake my head or wonder...then off I go again. I love the snow (of which we have plenty) but it does take longer chunks of my day with the increase... Sign in to see full entry.

Snow! I am one of the few who still really loves that cold, slippery, beautiful white stuff. I stood, sipping my first coffee and gazing through the window during the wee hours, watching Grump as he buried his nose, searching out the best spot for his needs. I could feel Bandit weaving around my... Sign in to see full entry.

I just slept 12 hours!! Granted I got out of bed a couple of times, mostly because Grump came into the bedroom and wandered around, his nails clicking on the floor, and I thought ‘It’s time to get up now’, but I wasn’t up more than 30 minutes and I couldn’t focus or move around and I needed to go...

I returned to the office, my first morning back. The HR ladies told me we were going to lunch – it was a Salad Sensations Bar and the food and conversation both much enjoyed, and my desk was moved the same afternoon. Was this lady happy??

It has been very much like an ordinary work week except for not travelling to and from the office, and I didn’t have to get dressed first thing in the morning. However I am set...

I like this time of year; so much to smell. The little creatures out there are scurrying around trying to hide from the cold, so they’re not really paying attention and it’s much easier to get closer and boy! Their faces when they realize I’m right behind them! I give a bark or two to show I mean... Sign in to see full entry.

For some reason most modern offices have the employees shut away. One sits there from 4 to 6 consecutive hours under artificial light, without birdsong or a gust of breeze, sharing germs that float around in the air conditioning. I am actually luckier than many because my desk is beside a part of... Sign in to see full entry.

G Grump and Bandit Weather-wise, this is what I call a perfect day; sunny, with a few white dragons or rolling bears or little rivers, or whatever shape one wants to see in a cloud floating up there; warm enough to wear just a sweater, but not so hot as to constantly seek shade. It did, of course,... Sign in to see full entry.

The weather is being kind to me. On more than one weekend I have made plans to clean up my home office, to catch up on work to be done for some former clients, then out comes Mrs. Sunshine and....well, how can one stay indoors? No so today! It’s rainy and gray...or grey...and my determination to... Sign in to see full entry.
