I,m trying out youtube video……here is a April 06 Test and Tune.

Well…..I have about enough of this weather. Snow, minus 20 with the wind chill and supposed to keep it up till the end of the week. Makes living in Costa Rica look real appealing. My buddy from Nova Scotia called yesterday and they were going out to our cabin and doing some fishing….he said it was a perfect spring day there. Oh well, we have had a decent winter so far but it is turning into a LONG winter. Sounds like the main storm went north of us last night. QE2 highway to Edmonton sounds like it is pretty rough shape…..hope it get cleaned up by this afternoon…..I’m off to my support group meeting tonight at the Royal Alex.

I went into Calgary today and looked at a couple of different models of Zebec inflatable boats. I think these will be ideal for the Costa Rica jungle. I don’t know how the freight is to get one hauled down to Central America but Stan from Zebec is checking into it for me. If I get one I will try it out here for a while before I send it down. I don’t want to be out in the jungle trying to figure out how to put the thing together. Although they look fairly easy to set up I want to make sure everything I need is shipped down. I added a link to Zebec…..go have a look.

That was some snow storm yesterday. It took me 1 hr to get from Country Hills to 64th on 14th. It wouldn’t be so bad but it probably isn’t the last storm of the year. Oh well…..it is better today and the weekend is supposed to be nice. We will see…….How about our Flames, got a split in San Jose and now are home for the next two. That will be the big test…..you know this one will go to 7. Blue Jays are still dropping winnable games…..but what else is new…..I hope to watch Kevin Martin tonight when he takes on the Scotts in the 1-2 page game.This is the world curling championship. Good luck Kevin.

Boy this has been a struggle getting some pounds off. I was down a few lbs ( by starving myself) but i ate 2500 -3000 cals on Sunday and put those lbs back on. I am getting really tired of this……starve yourself for weeks (1500 – 2000) and maybe get 1-3 lbs off and go back to 2000 to 3000 cals for a coup[le of days and all that hard work is gone. Really frustrating….I have a appointment on Monday with Dr. Birch and I will beg for a small fill. As long as I am this hungry I will not lose any more weight. If the next fill does not curb my hunger, I am in trouble because I do not want a tight band….
