It is Bone chilling, skin freezing cold here in Ontario. The wind in some parts has gotten up to 80Km! At least I am not in the Prairies where some parts are -40c. I can not imagine being in that weather.
I am annoyed at the Toronto District School Board; today they passed a resolution to open a "Black focused school" by 2009 and while I believe thier hearts are in the right place I think that you need to address the root problems of why 40% of Black kids do not graduate! Poverty, Single Parent households and unsafe neighbourhoods are not a great combination for success. Why can they not focus on black history and culture in all schools? Can we not make all schools better? Is segregation really an answer? Geez.
Don't think I have mentioned this before but our house is full of raptors fans...we were very happy to watch the game tonight where they decimated the wizards 122-83. They are now 5th in the Eastern Conference. Dixon had 12 points - need I say more!
There is even a rumour going around that T.J Ford will be back in practices soon. This is good news as how long can Calderon keep up the amazing performances.
I took the kids to get pictures done today. Nick was in a most foul mood until the camera started clicking. I swear he could be a model. Isy was perfect.

I would love to make glass my full time job but unfortunately with a family to feed I need a steady income so we can live a good quality life! My husband and I only have 1 child who is five, her name is Talitha and she is starting kindergarten tomorrow for the first time! I'm a bit nervous as she has spent her whole life with me at my mums daycare centre where I work. Its going to be tuff for me to fight back the tears, I hate the fact I can't be there if she needs me!!!
How old are your kids? Have they started school yet?
