Well one more day and it will be Candice moving time. We are taking her up on Sunday and I will stay there one night and take the train back on Monday after she is settled in and all her stuff put away. I should be able to loose those extra pounds I lost and put back on between her
being gone six weeks and losing 8 lbs and gaining back 4 in the 3 weeks she has been home.
The pool hit 66 degrees today a couple more and it will be perfect. If only the sun could stay out long enough for me to enjoy it. I hope it doesnt rain all summer like last year. I really only got in a couple of good weeks of swim time with it going in so late and then all the rain we got in August.
Everyone keep your fingers and toes crossed. I made another towel wedding cake. Garry's niece is getting married and the shower is next sunday in toronto so mom and i are going up with garrys aunt jean anne. This one is while towels with red roses. It\s hard to make for someone you dont really know so I hope she likes it.
A picture of Garry's shed will be comming soon. It should be completed by next weekend. It is comming along really good. The neighbour across the road is building it and he is doing a great job. I will proberly last longer than the house and we might be living in it eventually. He is also going to build a loft in the garage to put all the summer stuff away for the winter so it wont have to go into my basement giving me more space for my sewing room and I will actually be able to park my car in there during the winter. No more scraping off windsheilds. I am really begining to like this guy.

I had my relay for life yardsale saturday, it went very well. I ended up with $496.00. I had alot of stuff donated from the neighbours to help me out. I had a few large a mini fridge that went of $50.00, a computer and desk that our neighbour from Whites rd bought along with the computer desk for $70.00 and a violin that a guy at work gave me to sell it went for $75.00. It was a beginners model and was only $200.00 new so I was happy for to get what I did. I would not have gone lower. I would have donated it to our adopt a school's music program instead.
So I am well on my way to my goal. The person who gets the most pledges on our teams will get to add the $2000.00 cheque from Wal-mart putting them in the top pledges catagory, so the battle is on. Wish me luck

When is a bedroom not a bedroom? When it's a solarium. Yes Candice's new bedroom is going to be a solarium. She will be renting the small room for $595.00 a month. The ad read, if all you need is a roof over your head then the benifits outweight the space and she wasn't kidding.
The room mate works 3-11pm Candice works 8.30-4.30 so they will never see each other. The $595.00 includes, everything, cable, movies on demand, wireless internet, washer, dryer, dishwasher, heat, hydro, phone, and the use of the entire apartment, so who cares that the room only fits a single bed, a dresser, and a bookshelf, all she ever has to go in there for is to sleep.
The building is a security building with security on site, 24 hr grocery store. 24 hr library, indoor and outdoor jaquzi and a sauna and a gym. So looks like I have to make some BIG A** curtains to cover her door, since its all glass.
