Pics from Tea @ Billings Estate, August 22, 2010



We had full high Tea at the Billings Estate, which is usually held on the patio, but due to bad weather they accomodated us in an old kitchen which was "just marvellous". Billings Estate ihosts a number of events, including weddings. We went once before to a Halloween Hanting with storie tellers and all and really enjoyed that too. Great place to go..... http://ottawa.ca/residents/heritage/museums/billings/index_en.html

Ladies Day in Manotick, November 6th, 2010






It was a small group out for the day in Manotick, but just as good the Main Grill was delicious but tiny. Really good home-cooked food....

Then we took in the specials around town, browsing the shops, even got interviewed by the Manotick News, which I meant to check into. Did anyone get that article of the net? As usual we were treated like royalty with the paparazzi in tow. We are special, aren't we?

OMG - Procrastination...time passes and I must post

Yes, procrastination is one of my problemos with blogging. I keep thinking "I'll do it tomorrow" and then it's everything online you can think of...emails, online banking, hockey pools, arrangements, applications, verifications, contests, Facebook, interuptions, etc. that have taken up all my online time. Then of course you gotta find the pictures, remember the dates, and the more posts I miss the longer the list gets. I have a saying I love to say "Lazy men work twice as hard" and this is the perfect example, unfortunately it's a women in this case. It usually pertains to my three men at home (husband & 2 sons), who I also share the computer with, hmmmph. You know if you wanted to you could stay on the computer all day long. I can even reach people on their phones now via email.

Ok, so I'm goin' to post the past events themselves today, and then add pics as I find them, ok? My next project is to get a electronic scrapbook (OMG, more computer time!) going and Karen has to help me, ok Karen. Anyone else have any experience with this? That way we can all add picture of us, the most wonderful group of ladies in the World!!! yes I think so. Blogs are meant to be like the old diary I used as a girl. So I will try to keep up-to-date, otherwise I might miss the mood of the moment. Which in our case would be missing fun.

So according to my last post, I will take us from now to August 2009, wish me luck!!! See how much you can remember....
