Job:
I still haven't found a job but I'm applying for anything that sounds remotely interesting. I'm getting frustrated mostly because I have cabin fever and would like to be in a position where I can get out of the house on a semi-regular basis.
Pat's job is going great. He loves that he can walk to work. What a change from his last job!! A five minute walk vs. a 45 minute car ride. He's generally home by about 345 every day, which is so great! He is coaching volleyball this year and has 2 - 3 after school games a week and two before school practices so this has been keeping him busy since Christmas break. He has one weekend game on Saturday (Feb 21) and that almost completely wraps up the volleyball season.
He had a good week because all the buses were cancelled on Wednesday because of a small ice storm that went through here. Also, Friday was a PD day.
Valentine's Weekend
I already posted pictures of my terribly romantic gift from Pat but he also got me some beautiful earrings and mini roses. We had plans for a movie night out but I think we are actually going to go today (Monday).
We went to Ikea on Sunday and had a blast buying a few things for the house. I needed one more bookcase for the living room and a tv stand on which we are not putting a tv. The tv is mounted on the wall so the stand is just for the receiver and dvd player and some storage. I also got a few picture frames and slowly, slowly the house is coming together. I will be posting more house pictures here probably next weekend.
It still amazes me that we can go to Ikea for the day. That we can go to Toronto for the day. I LIVE HERE. Weird.
Travels
We plan on a quick trip to Sudbury the weekend of the 28th. It is my brother Rodney's 34th birthday and we are going up to celebrate that.
Other than that things are good. See you next week!

ReplyDeleteI love your pictures and the fact that you have a blog so we can keep in touch.
We hope you got your Valentine. You will have no problem finding a job with your personality, it just may take time to find the one you want! We are happy to have you closer and plan on visiting this summer. We look forward to seeing you for Rod's Birthday and I can't wait to show the kids the pictures of your cats! And you guys too of course haha.
We love you! Angie, Rod, Staysha & Zander

Definitely post house photos.
ReplyDeleteYou'll get a job - I'm frankly shocked that they haven't hired you already, but whatever; the right thing will come along and that'll be that.
