More Delays! But the End is Near

More Delays! But the End is Near

On one of our last days on the west end, I walked past a four or five year old kid, sitting dejectedly on his scooter, missing one shoe.

Moving Round 1

Moving Round 1

We're full in the midst of chaos and which-box-did-you-put-this-in and eating take-out until our stomachs are full of ulcers, or maybe that's from the stress.

This Old House

This Old House

I came up this morning to rouse the baby from his nap, and I found the baby, who is supposed to be napping, looking naughty in his crazy dance pants, and the dog, who is supposed to be guarding, napping.

Found on the Streets of Toronto

Found on the Streets of Toronto

Or really, found on the streets of Little Portugal. Especially when Jon and I graduated from school, we've had our share of visits to Ikea. Ikea sometimes reminds me of the twilight zone, the lighting and the music and the maze and the tableaux of furniture that all looks slightly different but vaguely familiar, but we were broke.

Moving Update - Delays...

I'm sorry to say that there have been some unexpected delays. We had been keeping our fingers crossed, but I think that only works in the movies. I'm pretty disappointed with this, but we're hoping it will all be worth it in the end.
