Back to the Very Beginning…

a very good place to start! So… it has been a while since I have blogged properly and I DO have a good reason… Saturday did NOT go as planned! (well really the whole weekend went bust but who’s counting?) Ken showed up ready and willing to pick up keys, pay damage and first month’s rent… and sign a rental agreement but the owners did not! And have not contacted us otherwise. You can imagine how our little family reacted. No one was happy and Ken wasted 4 hours waiting around for them. Thankfully our original choice who has the electrical issues was willing to return our deposit and all that AND keep us top of the list should it come open this month (seriously the man is great! But we cannot wait around on a maybe)… so that was a bit of a pick me up! BUT that means the great hunt has recommenced. Joy??

Now for the REAL reason I have not been blogging… Saturday was a big boo hoo day so Ken sent me to Karyn’s overnight to enjoy the peace and quiet of her apartment and to do the girly grumble thing (with Echo in tow). We hung out, played on our iPads (no laptop thus no blog but the pre-done picture one) and were lazy!

On Sunday Ken was supposed to take the crew to Sunday School but instead spent his day on the phone and email with potential rentals… Sad that we could not make it to church and then to the afternoon church bowling event but so proud of Ken just jumping right back in and going for it. He has wasted NO time. In fact, once I was aware of the no show on Saturday and that Ken was waiting I too took to the Kijiji site and started calling around. Can’t let the world beat us!!

Sunday with Karyn was nice and relaxing… we slept in until Echo and Dare (kitty) woke us, one hungry the other expecting his insulin. Then we bummed around the house and chatted, bathed, etc… then it was time to go to get Victoria and go to the food court for lunch! YUM! I had to have Umi Sushi Express, and then we rounded it out with frozen yogurt! 

Victoria and Karyn had movie plans so it was time to head back to Chris and Chris’. In a much better frame of mind I might add! Some time away from the crowd was rather special for Echo as well! 

All cool and relaxed when she got back!

We read a book before bed Sunday night from the library… the app listed on the cover is available for free and rather cute! Be sure to check it out! 

The book

So that was my weekend in a nutshell… not the worst of my life but far from the best… so lets see if Mother’s Day weekend can be BETTER!!
