Weekly Wrap Up (Feb. 12 - Feb. 18)


Ooops, I did it again :(

Up here in the frozen Great White North some people decided years ago that the time between New Years Day and Good Friday/Easter Sunday was tooooooo long of a break without a day off from work :o I know, you all are thinking did you damn Canadians create another holiday in February? If you are thinking that, you are correct. The day falls on President's day in the US of A, but most provinces call it Family Day :yes:. So the 3rd Monday of the month is a day off for most companies unless you live in Newfoundland or Quebec. They have their own holiday, but they decided to put them in the summer where you can be out and about and enjoy the weather. Tomorrow, we have another polar vortex coming in for tonight, and could bring up to over a foot of snow and temps in the -22 C range. Warning to my 'merican friends, that usually means it will be coming down there.

Why I'm telling you all this is that I totally forgot today was Sunday. Again :(, I really need to get back in the routine. Would someone be willing to hit me with a cattle prod on Saturday nights to remind me? Sorry, Val, I know this would make you too giddy so for your heath and mine, you are exempt :gikkle: Oops again, I made it 50 days before I said something not all positive and rosy about Val. That New Year's Resolution is gone. But think if the fun I can now have :devil:.

So to the wrap up at a later hour than usual...

Let's focus on the Words of the Day first this week:

On Monday, Myr shared with the community the top 9 results of our first Reader Choice Awards! Did one of your favourite stories make the list?

On Thursday, Val shared another 2 Poetry Anthologies. So have you thought about stepping out of your comfort zone this year and submit a poem or 2? Or 3? ;) 

Friday, Val was back again and pretending she was Captain Kirk :o 

Yesterday we had Comicality with an all new writing article. Always good to take these in and employee the techniques and ideas in all of our writing:

Last week due to technical difficulties, I was unable to share with you the results so far for the month of February on our Reading Goals. We are now up to date and with just over a week to go, let's win one for the Gipper. BTW, does anyone know what is a Gipper? :unsure:

Thanks for the ice storm we're supposed to get Wednesday night through Thursday.  Of course, it's a day I have two appointments; one before and one after work.  :angry: 

I will quite happily remind you about the weekly wrap-up on Saturdays :devil:  I have a feeling I'll have to fight @Krista for the privilege. :fight: Although I'm sure we could work out an alternating schedule.  :P  

I dispute the 50 days of being nice to me.  I don't think you should count the days you were on vacation.  :P 

😮 Don't let the little cheeky thing attempt to swindle you. Git' him. Also, no you're more than welcome, I am nothing if not giving in my battles to keep our @wildonein line. I mean... there's only so much one person can do with him on any given day. Tired Episode 2 GIF by Friends
