Black Beauty is a healthy girl!

I was biting my nails, crossing my fingers and toes and talking out loud hoping and praying that my car's check up went ok. Sure she needed some fresh oil in her... but anything more than that I was not looking forward to. Something to do with the whole unemployment thing. No need to worry when I was called up to the front of Honda saying she is in excellent condition and nothing needs attention. WOOOHOOOOO! Big sigh of relief for me... and the visa.

Toronto has been absolutely bone-chilling freezing the past week with windchills near the -30 degree mark. Three layers certainly aren't enough when bearing the elements so most around the city have opted for staying indoors. I have managed to get out a bit - met Cookie for lunch (well we actually had breakfast @ 2:30pm) and watched Sex and the City with Tim and Laurie. Also with a new condo floating in my mine I have been wandering around Ikea for ideas, Home Depot for paint chips.

This week has also been interesting... the demolition of the Campbell house kitchen. The noise, dust and obvious inconvenience has only just begun. One week down, three to go. A break in the house madness - Mike comes tomorrow for 4 days to reinstate my sanity and I can't wait. As long as he is prepared for the Norma & Norman inquisition (me moving to Ottawa) all should go well. Good luck Mikey :)
