Back to work :(

In a couple more days it will officially be the first day of spring!! Although it is pretty chilly today and doesn't really feel like spring. The snow has melted quite a bit and I can see patches of green in the grass!! I think I prefer fall over spring just cause all the trees change color and everything looks so pretty. But I'm still pretty excited about the weather getting nicer! :)

As expected my weekend was pretty uneventful, my hubby went to the hockey game on Sat - they lost ... again! So I had the evening to myself, it was great, I played around with our taxes to see if we would be getting any money back. It looks promising, the hubbies taxes are fairly easy and simple but mine are a little harder cause I have RRSP's and a pension. I think I figured mine out wrong cause according to my calculations I should be getting alot of money back and usually that means I figured something out wrong! LOL I might have to ask my mom or FIL to look at my taxes too see if I did them right!?

I also decided to start a recipe book, my mom made me one when I got married with a bunch of family recipes and recipes that she likes but some of them I doubt I will ever cook. So I found a few in my Low GI recipe book that I will probably make and I'm going to pick out the ones I will make out of the book my mom made and go through all the ones in my cupboard. It will take me a while to do this, I have quite a few recipe books that I have only looked through a few times and don't think I have ever made anything from! I also plan on ordering the NS cook book from Chapter's which will hopefully have more Low GI recipes that I will like.

On Sunday we decided to go visit the grandparents cause we haven't seen them for a while but we only got about 5 feet from the house and realized we had a flat tire!! My first one ever! We switched vehicles and the hubby changed my tire when we go home. One of the hubbies cousin's (the only one I really like) was also at the grandparents. She recently had a baby (two days before my niece was born), and I hadn't seen them since his baby shower so it was nice to see them. He is getting big, not as big as I think my niece is but he looks completely different from his the last time I saw him.

The hubbies grandma was quite concerned about the whole Pet food recall and made sure that we knew about it. There is actually quite a long list of cat and dog food that is affected by this recall, it looks to me like it is only wet food that is affected but if you have a cat or dog it may be worth while to check out!
