What to write, what to write.
My mind is just this empty restless void of nothing. I know that it is hard to be empty and restless at the same time, but there you have it. That's me right now. Hey, I just thought of why!! Its the same feeling that came over me shortly after I quit smoking and my body was craving nicotine. Maybe that's all I need. Inhaling a few good lungfulls of carcinogen laced smoke would probably set me right with the world...............................Naw, probably not. Just make me hack up one of my lungs and make me puke, and I really hate puking. Almost as much as I hate snow and winter. Sorry, I wasn't going to wine about winter anymore, but I hatess it so. I should have gone to Yorkton this weekend and played with Ben. That would have set my world right. But it was kind of warm all weekend with a wind so the highways would have been awful so I'm glad that I didn't go, but I do miss that boy. The webcam to Noah teases me, cause I can see him but can't touch him, and that's almost worse than not seeing him. That's not true either. I think I am just kinda cranky tonight. I read all my family's blogs, and realized again how much I miss them all. Didn't comment anywhere, just read them and left. Trav I went to the Great Buffet of China today. Hoping I would see you there. That place has improved, it was really quite good. Anyways, its almost 9:30, so I think I will go to bed, read a bit and go to sleep so I can go to work tomorrow and shovel about a million tons of snow out of my switches. Ah the joys of living in Saskatchewan.
Goodnight all.
The stupid spell check just asked if I wanted to replace goodnight with Codington. Who built this program anyway. And what is a Codington.

I have felt that feeling of my mind being restless and empty at the same time, so I understand perfectly how you feel. I just never knew what that feeling was before. I haven't written anything new for a while because of that feeling. Maybe I should do what you did and just ramble. It's actually quite entertaining to read the ramblings of an empty, restless mind.
Is your spell checker set on USA or Canadian English? Sometimes they can be set on to England English, and then everything gets a little funny... just a thought.
I wish you guys could have come this weekend. I was SO BORED and so was Ben. He kept asking "Gonna Goola Ina Caw?" I would have taken him ANYWHERE but there is nowhere to go in Yorkton. Sigh. I can't wait for spring. AND I can't wait for you guys to get here this weekend. Maybe you should all three take off Friday and you could come Thursday...
Codington?? Odd... that just reminded me of Balderdash... trying to think of what that word meant... I love that game, and no one ever wants to play with me... I can't imagine it being fun by myself... So, I read... or watch more Corner Gas... crap, that show is funny... I love Wanda, she's hilarious...
Wow, that was a very random comment... kind of like your post... makes me sound like I have ADD or something... I'm okay...
codington refers to codington county.... here are some interesting facts on codington county....
QUICK FACTS
Area: 688 sq. mi.
Population: 25,897
Seat: Watertown
Codington County was first designated by the legislature in 1877. It first was included in a bound county in 1862 when the two eastern tiers of townships were included in a large Deuel County that went all the way to Lake Traverse.
The organization of the county was affected on July 19, 1878 when the Territorial Governor set up a commission to organize the county. It was formed out of Hamlin, Grant and Clark Counties. The county clerk was ordered to produce a county seat which consisted of a body of water, with a boat on the lake, and a town on the bank. The name of the county seat was changed from Kampeska to Kampeska City. And finally, in 1878, the County Seat was declared and it was changed from Kampeska City to Watertown. The first municipal election was held on June 8, 1880.
In 1857, the Transit Railroad Company built the first railroad through Codington County. That helped Codington's well-being greatly.
Watertown became a promising town. The Watertown Chamber of Commerce's early organization started in 1883. It was a population made of a good progressive class of immigration. Business establishments were thriving with good footing.
Codington County is the second county west of the Minnesota State line. Gorgeous lakes adorn almost every township, with the largest lake being Kampeska, which is two miles wide by six miles long. This is one of the most beautiful lakes in the Northwest. Lake Pelican which lies three miles south by east from Lake Kampeska, is the next body of water of importance to Codington. It is five miles long and one mile wide and covers nearly 3,000 acres.
Besides Watertown, other towns in Codington County include: Florence, Henry, Kranzburg, South Shore, and Wallace.

this has been a useless post about something that didn't matter... but i felt like doing it anyway...
trav out
and oh yeah... i was at the great buffet a while ago... it is pretty decent now.... not nearly as greasy as it used to be... both food and decor are nice.... i usually go the the asia buffet now tho.... we'll have to plan to do a buffet together sometime uncle john
Sorry to hear about the snow John.....all I can say is sure glad we don't have it here.
It was a glorious day here yesterday, the sun was out and it was a day you could spend outside.
Course, stupid me, instead of being outside, bathed and clipped our 2 shih tzu's. Sheesh, what was I thinking?
Yes Trav and trip to the China buffet with you and Amanda sounds like a fine plan.
Wow, Trav... That's 109 seconds of my life I'll never get back... thanks.
I'll confess... I didn't read it. I don't care what it means. I'll read it when Travis gets the "word" verification off the site.
I don't even know where you guys find word verification. I must be blind.
try commenting on Trav's blog. It's that stupid thing that makes you type all the screwey letters before you are able to comment.
oh that stupid thing. Yeah I hate that thing. I type it in exactly right and it tells me I am wrong all the time.
Mitz,
You need to have your glasses on when you read it. Some of them are really hard to read. More legible would be good, or Not at all.... would be even better!!
auntie margaret is right about all of us... we are a bunch of jackals... mel... the word verification is off my blog so now you get to read all about codington county.... have fun...
John, my new blog is posted. You can quit tapping your feet now. And also, you may want to check out my post on Jen and Kelly's blog too. I even amazed myself.
OK, John. You had a weekend in Yorkton with Ben and you still have not posted about it. What's up with that? I thought for sure you would have something to give us, but, nope. Nothing. Pretty soon your wife will show you up.
Yeah John, I am waiting!!
*taps foot impatiently.
:)
Since you still haven't posted anything new, I will have to post again to this one.
Just so you all know, I would like to call a truce to the spelling and grammar war going on. I will not correct anyone's comment but my own and if Margaret or Carrie correct me again....I know where you live :|
It agree, this idea is necessary just by the way
