Day 2 of March

For the record, I am sticking with my prediction that spring is around the corner. Yes, despite the snowfall we've received in the last few days. If nothing else, all of this snow has made me ponder a very important question. "Why in the world do we keep building a house with a south back yard. All of the neighbours have clean drive ways - not because they were out there shovelling, but because the sun (despite the cold temperature) melted all their snow away. If we ever move again (and I'll fight that), south in the front!!!!!!!
I watched an interesting "news" show today. Does Anderson Cooper still count as news, even during his afternoon talk show? Anyway the show was about putting information on the interent and some of the outcomes. There were a couple of people who were fired so comments they made. Now, when I listened to these people, I couldn't belive they were naive about what information could be obtained out there. It was of their opinion that stuff they put on was meant for certain people to see only. Really!! So I decided to do a little investigating myself. I tried goggling my name. Now I've done this before, looked at the first 3 or 4 entries and realized I'm not "top news". But today I decided to go a few pages into my name - say 29. My first surprise was how many Stacey Wee's are actually out there; there is one in Hawaii (wish it was me) and one in the U.K. (must like soccer). Most of the time may name came up - Stacey and then next to it would be a wee someone or something or other.... but I plugged away and I actually discovered myself in a few places. Facebook was a popular one for both me and the other Stacey Wee's of the world.Of course I was listed under the preschool; and my previous employer PREP; and then there was a comment I made at the Reggaefest website (thankfully it was a good one); and there was one on a note I sent to Anderson Cooper (he asked about tattoos and what they meant to you) I also entered a contest on Country 105 - showing a mysterious picture of some feet that we took on a camping trip to Lundbreck Falls. One surprising entry I found in the "Cochrane Eagel." It was from a MC horseshow many years ago, and I was the show secretary at the time. There was nothing specific, just mentioned my name. I almost felt famous for that one. And another entry I found was the obituary notice for my father-in-law and I as his daughter-in-law. And of course there was the odd entry from my blog. When I started my blog, I knew the information would be out there. Thankfully I think I've kept that "thought" with me. But I must admit there have been times where I have wanted to use it as a "whipping post." As one of the ladies mentioned on today's show - do not put anything up there that you wouldn't let your children read or your bosses. Hmmm. Maybe I need to adjust maybe one entry!!!!!!!
So next time I go and google my name, I'm sure this specific blog will come up - who knows, maybe the other Stacey Wee's out there will see their names (I have said Stacey Wee enough times yet)
Off to enjoy my book.
