I hope you’ve had a great weekend thus far.  I’m a little spoiled - again - this weekend.  I’ve had three long weekends in a row.  I had to use three extra holidays that I didn’t utilize last year.  It was a ‘use it or lose it’ proposition:)  I tried to get work to just pay me for the extra days.  Turns out they don’t like to give out extra money.  Hmmm.  Fancy that…hahaha…..

Speaking of extra money, how much money does one have to earn to buy a 2.2 million dollar home?  I can’t even fathom that kind of cash - okay, yes, I can:)  This past Thursday we were broadcasting live from one of the Princess Margaret Home Lottery for Cancer Research homes in Woodbridge.  The home that we were in is located at 95 Grand Vellore Crescent…..the home next door, number 103 is also part of the lottery.  They are crazy, beautiful homes.  We bought the 3 tickets for 250$.  If we win, we’ll have a party that only Jack Nation members can come too…..it’d be insane fun.  If you are interested in buying tickets, www.helpconquercancer.ca is the website to visit. 

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to visit us at the show homes.  I realize that lots of people drove out of their way to visit us…..I really appreciate it:)  Robert, Toni, Ray, Louis, Lorraine, Anne and fam, Joanne, Ken, the Booths’, the Luciano’s, just to name a few…..and especially Griffin!  Griffin came with his Dad to check out the house and buy a ticket.  I think he really came for a visit to see if he could gross me out.  Griffin is one of those super-duper, double-jointed dudes.  He can bend and crack his ankles in a manner that sent me into the next room with the heebie jeebies.  Thanks for doing that a whole bunch of times and freaking me out, Griffin.  In your gross honour, we’ll use your name as an extra bonus code.  Thanks for the visit.

The bonus code for the radio countdown this week is ‘rockon’.  We added some extra old school 80’s hair band stuff and thought it was kind of appropriate.  The tv countdown hasn’t ran yet as I write this, so, I’m not supposed to reveal the code yet…..sorry.

 I’m off to help pick flowers for a wedding.  Woohoo….that’s a subdued woohoo;)  Tomorrow though, gets a real woo-hoo.  The National Motorcycle show is on this weekend at the Better Living Centre at Exhibition Place.  I’m going tomorrow to shop for things I don’t really need:)  I’m very good at that.

Thanks for stopping by.

ps…..the bonus code for the tv countdown is ‘dire’.  Mark Knophler is playing a show at the Molson Ampitheatre in July and we have tickets to give away.  The code is worth points, plus an entry into the draw for tickets.  Good luck!
