So yesterday afternoon it hit 20 degrees. Today it is snowing!! This is crazy. The sun and weather yesterday was lovely, crazy today!!
So I got out today, Alison Timmins - yes her name is Timmins and she lives in Timmins- took me out today and I had a wonderful time. We had lunch at a real restaurant, shopped at Pick of the Crop - best supermarket here, Walmart and Futureshop! It was so cool to get out. We even went to visit at the Outdoors show, seemed like every person in Timmins was there!
Last night Erin took me out for dinner and beers, and that was a nice evening.
All is good here, enjoyin the people and the place. I am currently planning my summer vacation, spoke to Pammy last night and organising to catch up with her in July. So its all moving.

Las Vegas Weekend
Well I am home safe and sound and in one piece from my 5 night stay in Las Vegas - Just! No not really.
I had a huge few days and I am still soo tired after 2 days back! I went to Vegas with a friend, Kim, from Timmins, and her room mates from college, and her best friend. Well they did like to party hard. We made the VIP lists to several nightclubs, and were out everynight til late. Let me say, I have never been out so late, so many nights in a row.
And may I suggest Grey Goose Vodka,as the drink of choce, as there was little to no hang over each day. I was very slow, but no massive head ache for sure!
So I got to see Elton John- great, but Mystere by Cirque Du Soleil was THE BEST!! After the party girls had left the city I went to see Cirque by myself and it was so fantastic. I would have seen more shows, but they wereon vacation. I didn't get to see the Grand Canyon - will have to take another trip, dammit,and do it with less alcomehol!
We shopped, lay by the pool and had a great weekend. All very excellent. Las Vega is just amazing. The Hotels were extraordinary, so lavish and incredibly decorated/ designed!!
We stayed at the Bellagio and it was sooo beautiful. Apparently one of the best on the strip. And it was just so divine. The people there were great and the accomodations awesome. It is just like you see it in the shows! There are no windows and clocks around, you totally lose track of day and time. And when you walk around people walk around everywhere with alcoholic drinks.Even shopping fo clothes and stuff, acohol everywhere! I must say at this stage if I never see alcohol again I could be happy!
Well that's about all, as we know what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, but I must say I was pretty good for the most part. Yeah I know some of you don't believe it but that's your choice!

24 Hour Sports Marathon - 3/4 April
Well now, who's the sucker now? I am at home Saturday after 12 hours at school watching students doing a Sports Marathon. There were around 30, 10 of them great, the others were pains - totally! They refused to do what they were meant to - that is, do sports! I mean I was tired, but I wasn't stupid enough to sign up to do the sports! Half way throug I caught some kids in the building. Freaked me out, as they weren't the kids in the marathon. Anyway I got them out, and all good.
Super tired now, but survived it, with a little bitching at the kids - they refused to go out and help a teacher get her car out, even though it was stuck in the snow, and the were about to go home. After we have supervised them all night, can't even give Kim a hand. There was nearly 20 cm of snow overnight, I seriously thought I might have been stuck there with the kids for longer - that would have been terrific NOT.
So I am happy to sit today and tonight and vegetate.
Must say it was a great training for Vegas!
