Our condo turnover meeting was this past Monday. I wanted to be on the board and so put my name in and indeed got voted in :) There were four positions and they all went to members of our facebook group. Our first meeting I think is this week and I’m excited to get to work. Our meeting was at the Living Arts Centre and since it was just a 5min walk away a lot of us walked to get there. As we were walking home of course board business wasn’t on our mind. The question for the walk home was xbox vs. ps3, lol. I have a ps2 and only play it every once in a while to play my japanese horror games :)

So do you jeux ps3 or play xbox? Both? Or none at all.

Hair, Hair Everywhere!

I have to get the pups in for their annual exam and heartworm meds but have been putting it off because of the cost – bad dog mama! I will call this week though. I brushed Elvis this morning as he is drowning my home in dog hair. I am tempted to get a paternity test done on him to find out besides pug what else he is as he is a shedding machine and has a bit longer hair than Bruiser.

I brushed him for about 10min and realize I need to do this daily if I am going to get his shedding under control. Next dog…either a non shedding one or a nekkid one!

Smart Phones

I have a reminder in my calendar at work to get AppleCare for my iPhone 4 as my year is almost up on Apple’s dime. Since I don’t plan on upgrading to 5 (if and when it comes out) I should cover my bootie on this phone for the two years offered by their plan. A friend of mine is looking at upgrading her non-smart phone because she feels the cost of batteries for cell phones is more expensive than to sign up and get an Android or iPhone.

Knowing her, she’ll go the Android route. It will be interesting to see the differences between the two phones since I’ve never seen one.

iPhone or Android? What is your preference?

Spartacus

At least once a week I go to head office and work. I have a desk in a counterpart’s office and a little name tag on the wall, giving me a ‘home’ there. My counterpart is into astronomy and recently bought a spotting scope. She had her hubby just took up this hobby recently so I hear all about it whenever I visit. I’m waiting for her next hobby – as to be honest, astronomy doesn’t interest me in any way, shape or form.

Yesterday I was able to turn the conversation into tv, as I had recently seen the Dexter promo (this fall!) where his eyes fill up with blood while he’s talking and then she went on about a show I meant to google last night: Spartacus. Having just finished rewatching ROME (S1 and S2), I need a good show to hold me over until True Blood starts on the 26th.

Spartacus…anyone watch it?

Odds ‘n Ends

I have been quiet lately, I know. I have been putting my energy to loom knitting and having a blast. I have been watching youtube videos galore and posting on facebook loom groups to further my skills and though I still consider myself a beginner, I am definitely learning pretty fast. I made this had just recently with a crochet flower :)

On a different note, I’ve been working with a friend whose father is in his 80′s and by accident let his life insurance expire. Generally his mail goes to her so she can ensure all timely responses, bill payments – but for some reason this one was addressed to him. Now they want to move him to a high risk life insurance policy and she’s fighting to get his restated. I’ve been working with her on letter wording, edits, etc. I sure hope they get it figured out!
