In which I come back from a very cold adventure and get a new couch and a down jacket.

Well, as usual I have neglected to update this blog, I'm not sure if anyone besides my mother even reads this anymore, but at least for her sake I will put up the pictures of my new couch. It was actually quite an adventure getting inside my house. The deliver drivers after being excited about my largish front door were thoroughly disapointed when I opened the door to reveal a less than spacious entry way into another offset door before arriving in the narrow hallway to my home... They told me that there was no way it would fit, to which I replied, "well there are three other doors, it must be able to fit through one of them, right?!"

In any case after removing my back door as well as the door to my living room, the behemoth of a couch made its way into my lovely home and I am enjoying it as I type.


As far as the very cold adventure goes. I have officially started my sailing season, and I'm going to suggest that March is a tad but chillier than June...The group of grade sevens we had were great though, if not a bit wee. (I'd almost forgotten how small they were; I haven't had any onboard for about two years!) They braved the weather with good spirits though, and thank God for the sunshine or they might not have been so brave. But overall a great start to the season, I did however realize what working in an office over the winter does do my wimp status (it increases it) and I went out and bought a down jacket this weekend. Hopefully this trip will be toasty warm!

p.s. I've started painting my laundry room, and I'll post some before and after pictures once it's done, but for now I have a stacked washer and dryer (thank you Aunty Christine and Uncle Bill) and a jalapeno and dill pickle coloured laundry room in the making!
