Welcome to Friday

Hello. And welcome to another day in Nova Scotia. Yesterday was a fairly boring day that I wont even bother to write about. Although I will note that yesterday was the first really hot day we've had in weeks. Which is fine if you're sitting outside, sipping on the blue juice, not so good if you're confined to a very small house with 4 other people. I slept fitfully because of the heat and also the recurring nightmares I'm having. I wont go into those right now though.

I noticed this morning that the carving of the 4 Fathers is done, he must have stained it yesterday.

Today is another very hot day so the kids and I will be outside the rest of the day.

I had a chance to go out last night with Colleen but I must say, I'm still feeling on the depressed side, so I begged out of it. She showed up half an hour later with a jug of homemade "blue juice", which is very good by the way. I really like Colleen, I wish she lived in Virginia. ( You did say you were sick of Amherst.....I'm just sayin)

This morning Mum and I delved into the basement. We worked for almost 2 hours and I wasnt surprised that we hardly made a dent. I was amazed at how much junk/crap/redundant stuff she had.  The problem is, she wants to give me the background on every single thing. I dont need to hear why you have 15 sets of shower curtain rings. really. i dont. Give me a "yes" or "no" answer when I hold something up to you. please. yes or no. really. thats all I need. I cant imagine that we're going to be able to finish the whole basement at this rate. Now if it was up to me (grrrrrr, it isnt) we would just bag whole sections without even looking through them. I mean, you've managed to live this long without it, what makes you think you need it now? But thats just me, I'm an extreme minimalist.

Ok, so thats about it for now. I may not get around to posting again until next Monday. I'll take lots of pictures, promise.

I'm so tired and mentally drained, I think I need a vacation....oh wait................
