Mmm nothing wrong with BBQ's. Steak on a BBQ is probably my fave

 

[impatient1]

I love steak dinner on the BBQ with mushrooms, onions and potatoes!

 

[Vickie]

we had steak last night

Tonight he was going to do chicken but decided it was going to rain so made a stir fry and we got a tiny little shower and it was over so I had to hear about how he could have just barbecued I wasn't even home when all this happened

 

[readynwilling]

Lol!!!

Isn't it weird how a major catastrophe can hit literally a few blocks away and yet you can be totally unaffected? I still can't shake how surreal our flood feels.
I guess I wasn't totally unaffected. I lost my job at the Zoo (although that is hopefully not permanent) and my brother lost his place in a riverside neighbourhood and is living with us until he finds something else. So I definitely have some major flood-caused changes right in my face, but nowhere near what some flood victims are suffering. I think I associate the flood damage with the images I see in the media (even though I saw lots of it up close), and those just aren't my reality?
Not sure if I am making any sense.
Anyway, I have almost finished the last project for my Parks job, so I should be ready to start really enjoying a free-as-a-bird summer vacation pretty soon. Woohoo!

 

[Maggs]

Oh no Sarah! I'm sorry to hear that.

 

[Reba]

Oh no sorry to hear you lost your job at the zoo Sarah.
I hope it's not permanent either

Enjoy your summer off though!

 

[Tiff]

I imagine it's very hard to wrap your mind around such destruction when parts seem fine. I hope you get your job back soon!

 

[Vickie]

Sarah are you still coming to ON?

Hope everyone is well! Crazy busy here with Hannah home

 

[Try Rocking]

[Melissa_M]

Thanks ladies

Tiff I think that's smart! Even if it's awkward....I passed out in the shower one time...not fun.

 

[Reba]

yea... I made DH do the same.
We had a one person shower so he stood outside just to make sure.

 

[ryder]

Hope your doing ok tiff!!!!

Sarah: im sorry to hear about your job and the stuff going on out west, that all really sucks.

The shit storm continues here. Finally got an offer on our house and the inspector told the people we have major foundation problems and it would be $50k to repair. Plus we need a new furnace and both of our cehicals are about to die... .

Good times I tell ya. Crawl into a hole and die doesn't begin to describe it. ANd on top of all that I was displaced at work and thrown into a position where I have to drive to a hospital thats over an hour away for4 hour shifts.
