Oh gosh. I’m clearly failing to update regularly and I promise it won’t be like this forever. But for now, here’s the one word phrase summary of the many things going on in my life:
1. Visitors: too many to count!
2. Trip to Saskatoon: Â exhausting and not as much accomplished as we had hoped.
3. Plane trip with a 5 and 3 year old: SO MUCH BETTER THAN FLYING WITH AN INFANT (OR YOUNG TODDLER)! OMG I CAN’T EVEN SAY HOW MUCH!!!
4. Jobs for the hubby: In progress.
5. Movers: Hired.
6. Packing services: Because we’re loaded lazy.
7. Schools for Avery in Saskatoon: being researched.
8. Buying a house: we came, we saw, we left – maybe we are too picky. Checking out some other possibilities (ie. renovating an older house like cuh-RAZY).
9. Summer weather in New England: continues to suck the big one.
10. Kids: Overcome with cabin fever and BOUNCING OFF THE FREAKING WALLS LIKE MONKEYS ON ACID.
11. Avery’s dance recital waaaaay back in mid-June: Cutest. Bee. Ever.
12. Birthday: The hubby’s bike was stolen on my birthday. Â Crap.
13. Final drive back to Saskatchewan: Kind of looking forward to it – I know, I’m batshit crazy.
14. Avery’s birthday: Next weekend. There will be no Taj Mahal birthday cake this year – we have something a little simpler in mind.
15. Business: We’re buying a business in Sasktoon – if you need new tiresor rims or wheel/rim repair, let me know. I can hook you up.
16. July 4th: I realize it’s waaay past, but it was cool. Americans are obsessed with fireworks and that is awesome. We can see several miles of shoreline from our yard and there were constant fireworks along the entire coast for hours.
17. Summer Vacation: It’s awesome not to have to get the kids out the door first thing every morning to drop Avery off at school.
18. Neighbours: I have the best neighbours ever. They babysit my kids. AWE-SOME.
19. New pictures: Awww….
20. OMG WE’RE MOVING IN LESS THAN A MONTH!!!

Any news?

Hey! Thanks for the photos! Where did you get them taken?
Whaaattt???!?!!? Are pigs flying? You’re seriously thinking of renovating an old house? Didn’t the house in London teach you anything? You’re going to have to get all worried about lead & asbestos (not that I have any experience with that). But, if it’s in my neighbourhood, I will support living in an old house and poisoning your children.

Love, Love, those photos of those adorablel children! They are related to me, right? : )
Saskatoon will be quite a change but at least you are not new to it so it won’t be as depressing as it could otherwise be. Scenery wise that is. Good luck with your move! Packers, yet, Sheesh.
