Saturday marks the day of Remembrance when we show honour and respect to all those who gave the ultimate sacrifice so that we, and future generations can enjoy our freedom.  Don’t forget to wear your poppy and give a moment of silence tomorrow morning at 11am for all those who lost their lives in the war to ensure our freedom.  Lest We Forget.  And let us hope and pray in this unsure world of today that we never see a world war again.

I’m looking forward to the weekend as there are plans for my Uncle Tom and Aunt Shelly to come over Sunday and help us get our property ready for winter.  I just love it when they come over, two of my very favourite people.  Uncle Tom will ask me how’s the big dog doing, and Aunt Shelley will laugh and start rubbing my ears.  I roam the property overseeing everything and keeping a close eye out for those blasted squirrels.

Mama will be having another open house at 3218 Rothesay Road, not this Sunday but next, November 19th from 2-4 pm.  This Rothesay home next to the Common has a fantastic location and the perfect set up for home office for the professional.  The office is located over the garage with its own interior staircase and extra insulation for sound privacy so that you can work away in peace and quiet while your family goes about their daily lives undeterred.  I love the huge yard at 2.8 private acres and the invisible fence is already in place for us furry friends to keep us off the road.  MLS#NB091506   Offered at $899,000.

Hope you have a nice weekend.  It’s getting chilly but get out there because, I hate to say it, it’s going to get worse!

Talk soon, your pal,

Nicholas

I love getting the extra hour sleep when we set the clocks back, but oh, I hate the darkness at 5 o’clock!!!  Way too early.  Makes our days so very short.  I have to get my walk in before supper which isn’t always easy if Mama is having a busy day.

Wow, I can’t believe how cold it got and how quickly it happened!!!  Last Saturday it was 20C and then last night -7C.  I felt really bad for the kids out trick or treating in that cold.  We had a decent turn out considering the weather.  Some of them had two jackets on, one on top of the other!  I was dressed as a unicorn and met each child at the door.  We gave out chips and a large bag of candy that Papa personally packed.  He loves packing the Halloween bag (doesn’t think we notice that he’s eating candy as he’s packing).  Lots of fun.

We’re hosting an open house this coming Sunday at 138 Gondola Boulevard in Quispamsis.  This four-bedroom/2-bathroom homes is perfect for a family or good if you want to rent out the basement or have an air B&B.  The walkout basement has its own separate front entrance and vestibule so ideal for these situations.   The half-acre plus corner lot is large, good for children and furry friends to run and play.  This home is just up the street from the Qplex for loads of family fun with the rink and the pool plus the dog park is right across the street!  I have many great memories from that dog park!  Your Host; Cody Hicks 506-721-9433.  MLS#NB902935.   Offered at $389,000.

Hope you have a great weekend, and we’ll talk soon.

Your pal,
