It has been a pretty good day so far. I just got a nice bunch of stuff in the mail. The annual christmas card from our friend spike is always a treat and a favourite thing here at our house. thanks spike...merry christmas!!

Also two really intereting Cds from my Friend Patrick in Montreal. Merci.

The other great thing is making me smile for caring. I have been part of a neighbourhood team trying to get a local establishment to keep their music down and increase security etc. surrounding their nightclub. Today at a hearing they postponed as well as cancelling their application for increase in attendance.

The main feeling here for me is you really can make a difference if you get involved, speak up! The power in numbers and talking to your neighbours is priceless.
