Everybody’s working for the weekend…

Well, we made it through the weekend. Graham worked 30 hours at the restaurant last week and I did 29, in addition to our usual full-time jobs. By Sunday night we were both so tired, but so proud of the hard work we’d done all weekend long. We stood in the upstairs hallway of the house with a nice little wad of cash in our hands. It was more than just a wee wad of cash…it was a little ball of hope there in our clutches. Sighs of relief abound.

Did you know that HBO is finally coming to Canada? If you’re already a subscriber to The Movie Network, you’ll automatically get HBO Canada. WOO! It’ll launch on October 30. In Treatment! Tell Me You Love Me! Big Love! Californication! They’re all here!

Are there any chocolate lovers in the house? I want to tell you about a cool website called Share Something Sweet. SSS is a partnership between the chocolate company, Ferrero (of Ferrero Roche fame) and an organization called Share Our Strength, a hunger-relief organization working toward eliminating hunger in the United States.

If you log onto Share Something Sweet and use it to send a custom e-card, Ferrero will donate $1 per e-card sent, up to $10,000. Plus, if you join the Facebook page, “Ferrero Lovers Unite,” Ferrero will throw in another dollar, up to $1,000.  That’s $11,000 you can help divert to Share Our Strength, all with the click of your mouse!
