    Well, my dad is home after an extended stay in the hosp so I'll be hanging out with him a bit. I can finally get the time to unpack the rest of my stuff and check out my new nieghbourhood. I hope Sat to maybe hit a patio at the Forks, nice lunch and take the water taxi which starts Sat http://winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/story/4174223p-4762702c.html. <br>

    The IKEAs in Vancouver are huge. Thats probably the largest building Ive ever seen...other than an airplane hangar....

    Its funny how everyone at IKEA eats 50c hot dogs when they leave...its like a food ration.

    I try and find IKEA things on Craigslist....lots of stuff on there...lots of people buy IKEA things...then after a few months/year, they sell em. I grabbed one of these -

    they come in a bunch of diff sizes and a few colours..

    Sweet Jesus, markup.. someone is currently trying to sell one of those Expedit bookcases for $300 on Craigslist.


    For the long weekend, my husband grew a beard with no moustache, I sewed myself a pleated print skirt, and we're making the kids turn off the electronics. Then we're going to drive out to the Portage La Prairie colony and ask if anyone has a tray of cheeses.

    I'm hanging out with my kids this weekend. I was just mentioning to them how it's not even Queen Victoria's birthday we are celebrating. The sleep over kid says, "We are celebrating because Queen Victoria invented the long weekend" Made me laugh.

    Turns out any plans I had were scuttled when I woke up Friday sicker than a dog. Today is no better. Spring cold. Rotten timing eh?

    The beach in my community was full of people today. Lots of umbrellas to stay out of the heat... wonder if anyone was brave enough to go swimming.

    Man, it got up to 28 yesterday, gorgeous. Today some rain and not so nice, but the rain is needed here.

    I'm guessing there's not a lot of people here who work in retail? It seems almost everything is open Monday minus banks, gov't positions and auto garages. Sunday hours, 12 to 6.

    I mowed the lawn. It had to happen, eventually.
