I was just at vancity trying to get a loan for my doggy. I cannot say enough how pleasant it was compared to my usual bank. I wish we could go to that cool sounding shop but ain't got no money lol.

Man these farmland mansions are just such a bummer though. Waste of valuable farm space and incredibly tacky looking too.

I’m more grumpy about it being the second wind advisory day in a row, and thus the second day in a row that my daily bike ride would be such a PITA that I cancel it.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Yes, getting bad along 168th street as well between Highway 10 and 32 Ave. They know how to screw the system, and nothing is ever done about it.

Thanks man. Its just money. We'll earn it back. The scary part is her spinal surgery on Monday. If we've spent over 20 k on her care and something still goes wrong, that's going to be a tough pill to swallow. But im staying optimistic. Nothing much more we can do at the moment.

Maybe the year was just truly cursed. We'll have to see if things turn around in this new year. It certainly hasn't on the weather front, it is fricking gross out there.

I'm so sorry to hear. Is there a solid chance of her making a full recovery though?

TOO MUCH snow. Glad we aren't there.
Tell him to stop measuring the drifts. Sounds like a fish story.
