BACK TO NORMAL

My two weeks vacation is ending today. We didn't travel during my vacation but I had a great time at home. I been for a few parties but I spent most of my time at home, watching movies and cooking. I'm going back to work tomorrow and I hate thinking of it but I have no choice. I need to work and save not only for my family but for myself too. Money is one of the reason why I'm working but the main reason is to expose myself to the public and improve my french. I admit that my french is not perfect but it's good enough to communicate to the public. I practice my french most of the time at work because I have no choice, they don't speak english and I'm happy because I see my improvement in speaking french.

I'm working 5 days a week full-time, Monday to Friday, day shift only. This is one of the reason why I don't want to leave my work. My boss give me the hours I want and no weekend. The only thing I don't like is nobody can replace me if I'm sick or have an appointment somewhere during weekdays. I hope my boss already found someone to work with me.

NEED TO HAVE A NEW FURNACE

(our furnace that broke this morning)

Our 20 years old furnace just gave up this morning. We were still sleeping when we heard a very loud "bang". Hubby ran right away to the basement and check the furnace and that's what he found, a tube was broken. We are so lucky that we were here when it happen or else we will have a fire in the house. We have bi-energer heating system and because we have a very cold weather just now, it's the oil heating that is working. So hubby turn off the heating system right away before an accident happen. He called the company for the furnace and they came 1 hour after. The house was already cold and I just stayed in the bed until the guy came and switch to the electric heater. 

We are using the electric heater just now until wednesday. We will have to change a brand new furnace and we will be in peace for at least another 20 years. It will cost $3,000 plus for the new furnace and the manpower. It's quite expensive but we will be safe.

SUNNY BUT FREEZING WEATHER

Another freezing temperature today but a litter better than yesterday. The road is as slippery as yesterday and still lots of car accident in the highway. I was watching the news in the tv and they show the road condition and there is no reason for the drivers to drive fast for they know that the road is really bad but they still drive fast and cause the accident. I feel pity for those drivers who drive carefully and become the victim of the bad drivers.

Drive carefuly and safely guys..roads are very slippery.

FROZEN RIVER

(St-Laurent River Levis, Quebec )

Weather temperature this morning was -31 degree celsius and I'm telling you that it was very very cold. We are very lucky that we have a covered garage where we park our car or else, we will have a hard time to start the engine. I need to go to the asian store to buy some spring roll wrapper so we have to go out in the very cold weather. We planned to take the ferry to save time but when we arrived at the ferry, the crew told us that we might wait 30 or 1 hour or maybe more because the ferry from Quebec City side had a hard time to dock. They're already 30 mins late and still they don't know what time they can dock so we turn around and just take the highway.

The photo above was taken this afternoon where some of the ice were already melting since the temperature is getting warmer and it is suppose to be warmer tomorrow and will be positive next week.

HE'S TURNING 77

Today is my Papa's 77th birthday but it's so sad that we can't celebrate this special day with him for he's celebrating it with Papa God and his angels. I know he's happy up there but sometimes I can't stop myself wishing that he's still here with us, guiding us as he always did when he was still alive and until now I feel that he's always guiding me because I never stop asking him to do so. I never stop talking to him until now. When I'm down, I always talk to him for guidance and of course to Papa God too and they never failed me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA! 

You know how much I miss you. I miss you so much and I love you.

EARLY MORNING RUN

We spend our long weekend here in the chalet of Hubby's cousin. I really like this place because it's very tranquil- far from the city. The chalet is located in the middle of the forest almost in the top of the mountain. No electricity but fortunately, my mobile phone is working here since I change my telephone company...at least I'm still updated what's going on through social media.
We woke up 5:30 in the morning and went for a walk and jog while they were chatting in the kitchen. I'm quite afraid of  wild animals but with Peggy with me, I felt safe. I run for only 1 km, not much but I felt good.

Well, I need to go back outside and enjoy the nature while they're working the roof of the chalet..HAVE A BLESSED LONG WEEKEND TO ALL
