A Wee bit of Randomness before Bed
So I have several posts I have written offline and haven't gotten around to finishing them. Misha I haven't forgotten you! I meant to today I really did but I got distracted by shopping and Mark being home and a Twig and last but not least....SPRING! We went out for a walk with the dogs today and when we got home I didn't want to come in so I got started on a few of our many many yard projects. Phew. Rough work but it felt soo good to be outdoors.
Alas but I skipped a bit ahead of myself. In the last post I forgot to mention that we celebrated our first anniversary!!! Wow I can't believe it has been a whole year already. It was nice to get the cake top out of the freezer, though I can't say it tasted too great.
About two weeks ago we got a letter in the mail (again) saying we needed to boil our water. Last time it was because of too much poo bacteria! Ewww. So we boil it 2x then filter it. Still feels a bit odd but what else can we do? We have been told it is safe to bath in etc. just don't drink it. Ugh.
Still no job interviews.
Still waiting to take my drivers test.
BUT.... My mom is coming to visit in about 6 weeks! May 8 - May 18. So maybe that's a small good thing about me not having a job yet. : )
Hopefully we will get around to painting Patrick's bedroom this weekend. Holes in the wall are filled and sanded. Now I just need to clean up the dust and get Mark to tape the borders. Currently it is this hideous green. I think the old people who put it there were blind or liked feeling queasy when they walked in the room. We picked out a nice light blue. Once it's painted we just need a trip to Ikea for a few little things and it's done! Ahhh I love my son but I can't wait to have him in his own room.
And to really mix things up I will make a nod to Easter. We had a blast hanging out with Monique and her family. *poke* must do it again! We made yummy bread and colored eggs. One of the posts I have been working on is adding some of my recipes to here. Maybe tomorrow.
On Sunday we went to Mark's parents for lunch. I ate a bit of everything but still passed on the Herring. I promised that once I can speak Danish I will give it a try. Eeep.
I can't believe it is only 10:40pm and I am about to fall over on my keyboard. Oh the joys of 6am sunrise!
