Hi

Jayna's first grade one report card yesterday was very good. She received all A's and B's for the technical stuff and excellent and good for the life skills. :)

Also, after months of agonizing teething as a baby.......Jayna lost her first tooth this morning. She was ecstatic!

Happy Birthday to Mitchell Sweitzer...turning 4 this Tuesday! Here is a link to his birthday party photos from today. And this way to see a small video.

Been out of town for a week, back now. And winter is here!

If you're going to steal your mom's video camera and sell it, make sure you remove mom's homemade sex tape from the camera first.

Five to nine percent of 911 calls in Eastern Ontario are legitimate police emergencies.

News flash...

It's been awhile since I actually wrote anything here. I've been "adding" things. So, what's new...

I've been slowly plugging away at my Electro-Mechanical course on Monday, Tuesday and every other Wednesday nights.

Mom's business is all closed up for the season and already we can't wait for March to roll around again.

Camping season is over (I don't do winter camping), can't wait for Spring.

Because of my course, I miss curling. I have not heard any of the GACL Slop, so I will have to take a Monday night off and drop into the Hylands Curling Club.

Sarah is already getting on to me about Christmas and the decorations that go along with it. She wants to decorate now and I say it's too early. To please her I will dig out the decorations this weekend and get them ready...but NOT put them up.

I've also been thinking of a friend. I believe (and you know it) that your an extremely "strong" person. You will fight through this !

For those of you that know; November 21st is a new beginning and I am really excited about it. A little nervous, but ready, willing and able. For those that don't know, I will tell you when I can. I made a promise.

Finally, something that we would like to share with everyone. I don't know how it started, but it must have been a boring day. Koziol Bros. has a "short" film ready for the general public. After attending the "closed to the public" premier screening last Saturday afternoon in Todd's living room, "HED" is now being released to all with rave reviews about a stellar cast.

So, the independant flick is now available at the producers personal web site. You can view it there, with one little problem. The totally awesome version is a huge file which could take you 24 hours to download/view it and the smaller reduced quality file takes no time. Go ahead and try those files, but let me tell you this...after watching it on DVD, you will not experience the awesome production and quality in the "reduced quality" file.

The best thing to do is order your own personal DVD. You get the excitement of seeing Sarah in her first film. The cost of this DVD (as of today) is "the promise of receiving all Koziol Bros. films to be released in the future". This is a special deal and we do not know how long we can hold on to this deal. Just send me an email for your copy.

There is a warning...If the demand is so great, delivery may be delayed. And if you don't order one, you might just receive it for Christmas.

The DVD includes the complete 9 minute movie and added Bonus Features. I called down to the Marketing Department yesterday for another promotional copy and I was informed that there was NONE left at the moment, I have to wait for the next batch from production. It's going to be a hit!

Before I sign off. I heard that a certain female in the cast is already writing more scripts for her future endeavors.

Jayna received her level 5 badge in swimming last night! I had her all prepared for the fact that she may need to try a few times since it was such a big leap from the preschool levels, so she was extra excited to get it. We will take a break now before attempting level 6 sometime in the new year. There is a little CPR and First Aid in level 6. Scott and I have already voted for her to practice on Sammy.
