it snowed in London today for an hour.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Did you score on any after-Christmas sales?
I headed out to Wal-Mart early Monday morning to check out the sales too. They were discarding their Christmas items at 50% off, so I picked up ten 2-pound tins of Danish butter cookies for $0.98 each! That should be enough to last me, oh, a month!
should be going out the next couple of days to cash in -
It'll be difficult, but I promise to try my best!Originally posted by BrUtUs:sound like a good deal... u gonna eat cookies for a month?

Hello people..........how was your Christmas holidays? Was Santa being nice?

Santa ran off after extracting his yearly tax from my pocket ... -
Hee hee........you paid tax? Good for you!!! Meaning you did contribute to CPP? Consider that "investment" for your retirement years. But Fatum, if you report an income, I believe you do qualify for a refund on your GST?Originally posted by Fatum:where did you go, streamie ? ..

Oh, I didn't go anywhere. I took vacation days to cook, entertain, socialize and unwind. Oh, not forgetting..........CLEAN HOUSE!!!! It was a good break although a bit tired from seeing the same old people already.
We took turns to each other houses. After a while, I sort of ran out of topics.
After the new year, I am taking a couple of days off to clean house (yes, again). Well, sort of take down the decorations and stuff. Oh, and I am hosting the final dinner of the year, yeap, Dec 31. Ringing in the new year is an annual affair at my humble home.
And you? Did anything? Must be recuperating after your exams eh? -
yah ... last paper was only on the 20th ... but at least I'm quite ok with my results this term ... I got a free turkey grocery shopping at the superstore ... so had a little potluck at my place ... thought of driving west to Alberta to ski or something, but the roads are pretty bad ... and everything in Bnaff is filled up ... so hibernating at home all day lor ...Originally posted by littlestream:Hee hee........you paid tax?

Wah, so lucky ah. I guess you had turkey for the whole week. I'm not much of a turkey person but my girlfriend told me if she bought a turkey, she ended up with turkey sandwich, turkey stew, turkey salad, turkey pies.......Originally posted by Fatum:yah ... last paper was only on the 20th ... but at least I'm quite ok with my results this term ...

I thought that was funny.
