This little fur ball has been my companion for 15 years. We had many chats trips treats and ice cream together. She was a big part of our family. Friday she left us. To say it’s hard. Is a understatement. The hardest part of owning a dog….Is saying goodby.

On this date in 1982 there was a severe winter storm that effected the island and the waters around NL. On the early morning hours of the 15 the Ocean Ranger sank taking all 84 crew with her. Let’s not forget those who toil at sea. RIP. #riglife

700 litres of home heating fuel last winter was 575.00 with tax 661.00. The same 700 now is 1225.00 with tax 1408.00 That’s 747.00 more then a year ago. 747.00 more !! After tax dollars. For lots its heat or eat ? Not to mention increased food cost. This is staggering to most.
