I've been slightly AWOL from my blog and from others blogs. I'm playing a new computer game right now that I am absolutely obsessed with....so today's post is going to be 10 random things.

1. My fridge is not here. We got a call last night saying that it had not yet arrived from the warehouse in Ontario. They did not give us an ETA. I hope it comes soon. It's a good thing we don't need it right away.

2. Andrew is sick. I don't know with what but he has not ate today and is only reluctantly drinking. It's 5:50 as I type this and he's already asleep.

3. Our pilot light on the furnace and hot water heater went off for some reason on New Years Day. It got WAY chilly in here. The thermostat said 10.5 degrees! Yikes! Thankfully my father and my hubby were able to light them back up before any pipes froze. It was worrisome because it was MINUS 35 outside that day.

4. I've been thinking a lot about God and serving God and how I should (could?) be doing this. I am currently the Sunday School co-ordinator at my church, but really it is making me more upset and frustrated and not wanting to go to church. Something I did not want to happen again. I am really considering not continuing as co-ordinator when this session ends in May. Children are not my thing (no matter how much everyone tells me I am good with them and no matter how much I might like colouring and pasting with them) and managing adults to manage children is really not my thing. Right now the only bonus to this position is that I make an extra $192 a month which we have needed to have in our budget since I started in August.

5. While playing my computer game I am crocheting intermittently. What am I crocheting, you ask? You guessed it...more dishcloths. I'm making some for ME. I haven't made anything for myself in a very long time.

6. Gas is getting quite cheap in our city! It's about 76 cents a litre here! & because we get gas at Superstore we get an extra 15 cents off a litre for using our PC Mastercard. It was pretty darn cheap to fill our car the other day.

7. We spent New Years quietly this year. We went for supper (Yummy Thai!), then for a beer (at Billabong), and then we came home and watched 3rd Watch.

8. I took our Tree down today, but we are missing one box...so quite a few ornaments are sitting on the dining room table until I find it.

9. I really want to win Gails contest. I hope I do.

10. We have gotten quite lax with money and our budget over the Christmas Holidays. It's time to get back on Track.

the game is ceasers IV. it's like sim city...except it is set in ancient rome and you build temples, and and theatres, and farms, and make pottery. it's good addicting fun.
