Alberta winter begins in August, ends in July.

Great lifestyle, apparently.

It depends on type of work. Although do not try anything that needs spelling, Does not dose. Dose is using related to medication?

Sorry to be picky, but i am a secretary and it really irritates me when people cannot spell

So is mine but nobody believes that. People generally underestimate her age by about ten years. She hates that.

Estimates of my age........?

I've stopped asking. It gets depressing.
