by Bertha on 17. Apr, 2007 in Canada 2006
My pole dance lessons at Aradia Fitness are coming to an end this week. Level three is where you work out in high heels. I’m not ready for something like that although the women say that it’s a harder workout than just standing on your tip toes. I can do about 6 spins on the […]

Cat sitting
by Bertha on 26. Mar, 2007 in Canada 2006
My friend Susan went on her honeymoon (Coniki tour of Eastern Europe) and I’d been assigned the task of house/cat-sitting. It’s been pretty good so far but I’ve realized I’m allergic to them. Fernando is the little street rescue with only 3 legs. He’s a cuddle whore. Always climbing on you to get petted and […]
