Moving Day

E & I purchased a condo recently. It's pink. Pink walls, pink carpet, gross left-behind pink shower curtain, pink tiles around the bathtub, my least favourite colour pink.

Thank heavens for paint!

We'll be moving all day on Wednesday. According to condo regulations, moving must take place on a weekday between the hours of 9am and 5pm. Which means that we, as 9-5 office job types, must take a day off work in order to move.

Once we've actually moved into the condo we'll have the joy of completely renovating it. No more pink among many other things! I'm looking forward to this new project of ours.

But first, the packing and the cleaning out of our present apartment.

My Happy Place

After weeks of suffering -40 with windchill weather, I've begun to fantasize about all of the other places on earth that I could be enjoying warmer weather. I obsessively check the weather network website to see where I'd like to be. I also check to see how much longer I'll have to endure this bloody cold.

Forcasts for today:
Vancouver 8
Havana, Cuba 25
Paris, France 8
Tampa, Florida 16
Melborne, Australia 16
Rome, Italy 14
Alexandria, Egypt 16
Acapulco, Mexico 27
Lima, Peru 25
Winnipeg -36 (with windchill)

I could use a vacation!
