Bruiser and I went to the dog park today (yesterday too, how can one resist this spring like weather?). We spent almost three hours there. Yesterday we found out that some psycho poisoned some meet and left it in the parameter of the dog park and so we (dog owners) decided to use the baseball diamond fenced area instead. There were no issues yesterday but today a city Animal bylaw officer was there and told us we couldn’t use the park as it wasn’t leash free.

One dog owner obviously doesn’t have any public speaking anxiety as she was the voice of about 20 owners as we asked to be allowed to the the diamond as we were told by the directors of the city leash free board to not use the dog leash area. After about 20min and a phone call to the police station to get their okay to use the diamond it was disallowed and we were told that the lease free area had been searched and should be fine.

So…we went over there, into the bowl of mud and continued our play. Another 30min later and Animal services came out and advised us that no search of the area had been done and they were closing the park and that they were allowing us to use the baseball diamond. LOL.

It was a beautiful weekend. Spring is in the air. Now if the snow and lawns would just melt and dry up I’d be happy. Bruiser too…he’s not a bath lover. He won’t fight me, but stands like a statue. This is his second one this week because of the mud at the dog park.

I think I’m going to post this and join Bruiser in his nap…sounds loverly.

I am addicted to craigslist. They have a pet area and a pet forum and I peruse them often. And I love the antique and furniture listings. I’ve never bought anything though I’ve been tempted but have sold through them.

Every once in a while some person who is not paying attention ends up spamming some of the boards, maybe not intentional but when you’re looking for healthy and beauty supplies but see 15 postings for Philadelphia jobs…it gets a bit annoying.

Last week it was a computer/laptop seller posting their wares in the the pet section. Pets…computers, yes I can see the similarities!

With my moving coming up (new condo) in December (or thereabouts) I will be using craigslist to hock my wares as well. Computer desk, dining room table, extra dresser, etc. Let’s just hope they sell.

Off to the dog park now…it is beautiful outside, 12C (56F). Cannot waste the loverly day inside.

I started on my ad free site a while back but I have been having issues finding a theme that represents me. The site should be encompassing the whole me, fat and all but I just couldn’t find “the” look. It took a lot of searches before I found a few and then realized that some of the templates were placing free links through encrypted code in them and so I was on the hunt on how to remove them. I don’t mine the linking back to the creator of the template but I should not need to link to 5-10 other sites.

I am now working on my final choice (I think, lol) and maybe this weekend I will finish it. I have to be in the mood to play with code. Lately I’ve just been in the mood to read design blogs and creating folders of images of things I want or would love to do in my new place.

Speaking of the new place…it is now on the final floor:

I am suppose to writing a post where I can use the words free insurance quotes and got to thinking, ‘free; insurance quotes. You mean people pay for them? Here in Canada, you can use various sites online that gather quotes based on the information you submit or do cold calls. But either way there is no cost to do so.

Is the US or places other than Canada different? Do you get charged to get a quote? How does that work? Do you hand over a credit card number before they give you the magic number, lol.

Just wondering is all.

A few years ago I had never heard of mesothelioma. I never knew what it was and really never thought of asbestos. But it seems that it is becoming more of a headline, as more and more malignant Mesothelioma cases pop up. It takes 20 to 50 years to develop so it should be no surprise as asbestos was used in a lot of buildings from the 40’s to the 70’s so if you tack on 50 years, well hello there, mesothelioma…
