Weekend Recap

I got to check the new Walmart Superstore in Bracebridge with my finance yesterday. I have to say there are a lot of good things in it and it is big and I mean BIG. It is larger than some of the Walmart's I've been to in the GTA. We also went to a show on Saturday night called Canada Rocks which a musical by a troupe that sings Canadian rock songs throughout the whole show. I enjoyed it and it is my finance's way of introducing me to musicals. I just hope there is no High School Musical or Grease in our future. I got to relax as well and am enjoy having days off for a change.

Invictus

Here is an old poem by William Ernest Henley:

Out of the night that covers me.
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

I am the master of my love
I am the captain of my soul.

New Interest

I got a book when I was back home last weekend containing my family tree. Apparently, my ancestors on my father's side of the family arrived in North America in 1820 where they settled in Lanark County which is now located in Eastern Ontario near Ottawa. This is just the tip of the iceberg as I still wil like to do more reaseach on the matter and find out more about my ancestors. This hopefully will be something to keep me occupied.

I got to go back home for a few days which was very nice. It was great to see the family and to actually have a weekend off for a change. I also had yesterday off and did next to nothing which nice to do once in a while. I go back to work but by the looks of things it will be a pretty easy week for me.

Nothing New But I'm Still Standing

I finally have some time to make an entry in this blog. Last month was chaotic work wise. Come to think of it the whole summer was. Anyways, I have the day off and I'm going to chill and get caught up on a few things. I hope to make more entries in the future and get this going once again.
