National Grandparents' Day began in Canada in 1995. Motion number 273 submitted in the house of commons by Mr. Sarkis Assadourian read: That, in the opinion of this House, the government should consider designating the second Sunday in September of each year as Grandparents' Day in order to acknowledge their importance to the structure of the family in the nurturing, upbringing and education of children.
Dance as if no one's watching, sing as if no one's listening, and live everyday as if it were your last.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.

I've shovelled our driveway (twice actually), taken our dog for a nice walk, and gotten our mail from our community mailbox. Yes, we do get mail delivery today. The best part is spending time with family.

I did something I rarely ever do, that is absolutely nothing today.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.

Shovelled driveway a couple of times so far, Stew in the slow cooker, changed some settings in my router, Updated my KOBO's software, cleaned snow off the Dog several times, posted on Castanet.

Amazing how much gets done when Mrs S is out.
I got Married because I was sick and tired of finishing my own sentences.
That's worked out great for me!

Does Mrs. Bsuds know about Mrs. S?
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?
