Went to the Burlington Art Center today with the family. We were invited to a gallery showing put on by the family of a member of the Beth Jacob (You don’t even know how long it took me to get that sentence right :blush:). I had never known he was a painter, but he was, and quite a good one at that.

Afterwards we (the family - even the sister) went down to Hess Village and ate lunch. It was hard finding discussion material because we’re such boring people. Well, I don’t think we’re boring boring, but it was sad to see everyone else around us chattering while we just sat in amicable silence. Perhaps the heat was too much for us. Either way, we had our lunch and now we’re back home, doing what we usually do: I’m putting around on the computer before my shift and my parents are downstairs smoking their lives away. Kathy’s gone back to her regular life.

This week Kathy and I are going to bond more, I think. Well, she’s going to need a companion since she’s on vacation and I’m not going to be at work during the day that often. I swear, once I gave McDonald’s my new availability they decided I shouldn’t work at all :X So not cool. I’m supposed to be saving money, but that’s hard to do. Gord suggested actually making a plan, which I hadn’t thought of, to be honest. I’ve just been sort of care-free about the money that I spend and if there is something left over, well, maybe I’ll save it for a rainy day. Now, though, I want to make some good solid cash, because I want a trip to look forward to. I want to travel and see things that I can’t see here. It’s just hard to start saving money. Maybe once I get the ball rolling it won’t be as bad, but that initial jump is like going over a wall. In my shape? Well, it’ll be nothing short of a miracle that’ll get me over it :headwall:
