Sarah is back from the UK

Sarah is back, safe and sound from the UK.

This is good, as I was beginning to sing to myself as I did chores at home, and even I think I have a terrible singing voice...

Home Alone

Sarah is out of the country, going to a friend's wedding in the UK. This meant I had a weekend to do some minor home improvement. Luckily, I realised that doing too much unsupervised could go a little wrong, so I limited myself to just putting up some pictures and finally clearing out all the junk in my car. I will leave the shelves until I have someone responsible to help.

I also have eaten far too much junk food over the last few days. Way, way too much......

Another peaceful weekend

Been a quiet week.

Spent the weekend pottering around the house, trying to finally get rid of all the boxes of cardboard in the basement. I am amazed at how much cardboard we have. With the mass buying of fans and air conditioners to keep is cool this summer, combined with all the other stuff we bought to keep the house going, we ended up with more cardboard boxes than basement...

Of course, now this is done, we are not allowed to buy any more stuff. Ever.

Can you die of Turkey overdose?

This week was Thanksgiving, and we had a lovely meal with friends. Due to the lack of small Turkeys being available this time of year, we slightly overdid the quantity of Turkey available.




Since then, every meal has been turkey themed. We are about half way done with the left overs, but already I feel I am past the point of no return. I am even wondering if you can get turkey cereal with milk for breakfast.

Other than this, we had a lovely few days and the weather was beautiful for some great local walks:

A quiet weekend

After all the recent excitement, Sarah and I spent the weekend relaxing and going slow. We took the time to go on a walk in a nearby park and found a cool stream:






Next week, thanksgiving!

Shoot out

Just went to see the Caps play the Devils, and saw another penalty shoot out. The caps lost, sadly, but was a good game! On way home now....

Sweeping up the Leaves

It's autumn, and as the snow has cleared we spent some time clearing up the leaves. We made quite a few piles on our lawns, realising the small drawback of living next to a wood.



It is all worth it however, as the trees are very pretty around here now...
