Two per household

So we just witnessed shoppers drug Mart having to enforce the two packs of toilet paper per household! We went to shoppers drug Mart and saw a guy put toilet paper in his trunk - then went back inside. I jokingly said to Dean " he's going back for more toilet paper" and sure as shit - he was!! The cashier said " you just bought your share I will not sell this to you" so a crying girl is now stating this is for her family he drove her because she doesn't drive and what he bought was for his family. It was quite the kerfuffle!! Then she starts showing people her ID and saying see we don't live together. I said " I don't care, we're all in the same boat, it says two." The cashier was ready to call the cops because they weren't leaving. It was sad but quite comical. I got to witness the panic up close and socially distant first hand!!!

Social distancing

This is a new word for 2020. One I never thot would be so important! The world is upside down in craziness - panic and downright stupidity in some things. But you know what's still good ? Playing yahtZee with your kid and her man across the miles thru a Facebook portal!!!

QBF

I just recently discovered the term RBF (resting bitch face) I put my own spin on it of course ..... Awhile back Dean bought me a flames jersey, but when you get it monogrammed, you have to wait and pick up at a later date. So we say, no problem, we have a game soon. But that game didn't happen because Maddie can has, and needed her mattress. The only weekend was over a game - no biggy, we have another one. Speed up to march 8 and we go to the game. Find the store we bought it in, no jersey. it must be over on the other side she says..... So we circle around the dome only to find the other store is outside the doors. There is a "not allowed back in" rule.... :-( so with only two games left my jersey is denied and will not be retrieved until after the game. So I get an idea.....  I must go on  a Quest after the 2nd period. Surely there is someone who works here who can grab my jersey from the offlimits outer world? So Dean gets up to get a beer, I snicker to myself that I will complete my quest and sit down with my beloved Mangiapane jersey on my person! So off I go, first remember what section I'm in! Second find the store, third puppy dog eyes someone to help. I'm thinking hard and with my determination showing, who do I run into? Dean !! He's on his own Quest for 50/50 tickets lol but he sees me and is thinking " what's she doing? What's she up to?" Lol so he comes up and I laughed and said "I'm getting my jersey dammit !" Lol he then said I looked so intense .... I said ... That's my QUESTING bitch face lol!!!! P.s. I got my jersey!!!

Wizarding World Of #WeHasFun

Sunday night fun! 


Saved by the Christmas tree

So if you've ever had a real Christmas tree, you know that as much as you water it, when you go to get it out of the house it has a tendency to lose needles. Some needles in a projectile manor! After the tree leaves the house you now have to move everything to get at all the sprung needles. When I moved the stereo in the landing, (also where the truck is plugged in, through the front door. The outside plugs always get overloaded ) so I move it and ..... 

I see this!!!!! I immediately unplug the cord!!! Omg!!! How did that NOT start a fire!!! Now there is a different plan in effect ! But omg!!

Mangiapane hat trick!!




So here's the plan - get to the game and buy a Mangiapane jersey - only to find out - you have to order them ahead - ok so we do that - then who gets a hat trick on the night you buy his jersey? And what number goal- 13!! Lol it was like I planned it ! And hat tip to Johnny hockey who gave the last goal to Mangiapane when he could have taken it himself!!!

Christmas Time And Horror Movies

One of our favourite Christmas movies is called Krampus.  Of course it's a horror movie. I tell Selena often "Not everyone likes that" when it comes to mixing Christmas and horror.

 Well today I was about to leave for work and saw a strange sight at the foot of the driveway.  It was a large Christmas ornament. It immediately reminded me of IT and the red balloon and the sewer grate.  Nooooooo!

I went out to investigate and moved it.  Nothing bad happened like in those Christmas horror movies.    

All back to "normal" around here.  Merry Christmas!

The Polar Express!



On Halloween, we went to Mossleigh and we experienced The Terror Train as you know from a previous post.

Selena also discovered they have a slightly less bloody experience called The Polar Express.  If you haven't seen the movie, it's one we watch every year, along with other Christmas classics such as National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Black Christmas and Die Hard.   And yes Die Hard is totally a Christmas movie!

I had no idea what to expect.  The Polar Express is what the kids these days call an "immersive experience".  Not only do you actually travel down the tracks, all the characters are recreated.  It's all there - the dancing, the hot chocolate and Santa Clause.  They are actually licensed to do this so they have all the merchandise to make the experience even more magical. 

I would highly recommend the trip out to Mossleigh and experience Christmas like you never have experienced it before
