We thought we'd go shopping a day early to hopefully beat the hordes to shopping for New years'.
Hey it worked!
Isabelle is a woman of leisure. She's just lucky I'm around.
Christmas was a lot of fun. Boy did it get cold, -33 the other day. Plus, it snowed like a son of a bitch, like 50 cm, and no crews to clean it because (understandably) they were on holidays. Today it was 'warm' 11 C.
Happy New Year from us!
It is our last episode before Christmas. So we are on our way to shop, it should be a complete nightmare of nightmarish proportions (this is just a guess, as I am typing this before we go). If I don't make it back, send out a search party, and I'll pop green smoke.
We made it back, and at the same time that we would normally get back, which should give you an idea about how long it took.
It actually wasn't that bad. I mean it wasn't that good either.
Groceries were expensive, let's say it is good we had 280 000 PC points and leave it at that. Then I got double charged at the LCBO, but that got fixed.
Rachel always sends us a nice e card during the Holidays, and it is really appreciated.
Merry Christmas to all of you.
I'm not sure that's the exact title we agreed on but it is close. When we got home there was a clog in the upstairs bathroom sink. So for the last 45 minutes I've been fixing that. All fixed. Boy that ways fun!
Anyway, we went out a tad later today too, so not only are we close to Christmas, we're later in the day. The store was packed. Packed with people who don't know how to cook or shop. It's kind of cute in a way seeing say a young couple wanting to impress their family by cooking. Cooking food they have no idea how to cook. I then told the tale of helping out such a couple.
Isabelle's work is coming along nicely. She says sometimes her stuff is too painty. I am not sure what that means, but it makes sense to her and the other art people, so it is just a term I don't understand.
Isabelle's Dad built houses and was a designer and is the inspiration for a lot of her work.
