that must be makers mark whisky. yummy yummy. Tomcat - congratulations on the new car! enjoy! things are looking up finally. my mom is doing much better and really getting back to being self sufficient again. my wife's dad is better too. he may not get back to where he was though but we'll take it. and the horse is getting better too. the vet thinks it was an infection and the antibiotics is taking care of it. Thank you very much John! I'm enjoying it with full force. I switched from a 13-year-old, manual transmission, petrol Opel Astra to a brand new hybrid with an automatic transmission, so I have a lot to get used to Everything is automatic, even the windshield wipers. And there is also a reversing camera, so it's all very science fiction I'm glad to read the good news regarding the older members of your family. Hopefully the downhill ride is over now and better days are coming.

In Finland there is the president election day today (Sunday). It is different from the election in the USA, for example. There are several candidates. If someone of the candidates gets more than half of the votes, he/she will be the president. If not, there will be the 2nd round in February. The 2 candidates who have got the most votes, will be in the 2nd round.

I'm thinking that it sucks to be still out of work nearly 9 months after being laid off. But at least the CEO who did the cuts has now been fired by the new board and the guy who did the layoffs has decided he's done. So I can at least take comfort in the fact that they weren't immune from the problems they were creating.

This week from Monday to Friday I was at a work safety course. I was voted as a 2nd vice work safety representative. So that is why I went to the course. So I was enjoying 5 day hotel life. Good food and on 4 days there was also sauna and spa activity. The labor union paid the course and the studying material plus the hotel room. My employer paid the food.

Here you can see some pictures of the hotel: www.murikka-opisto.fi/panoraama/Just click the arrow on the box which says: Panoraamakuvia Murikasta. Unfortunately there are no winter pics...But it was quite nice even in the winter time. On one day we were at the beach saunas. And luckily there was the hole in the ice so I could go into the lake to cool off.
