Motion

James' skating is not improving fast enough and he is struggling at hockey, so myron is going to start taking him to the friday evening skate at Center 70.

James enjoyed his swimming in the morning. He played after until he went to hockey. By the time hockey was over, he was pretty spent, but he still went over to Duncan's house to play. Myron went to pick him up at 4:30 and they didn't arrive home until after 6. Apparently James had been having so much fun, he didn't want to go. (he had requested a 4:30 pick up as he had planned a 4:40 game)

I had put turkey and chicken pieces in the slow cooker but gave up on waiting for the boys and ate by myself. It was really good.

After dinner Kim came over and we went to DQ and got a cake. The last I talked to her they had pretty much sold their house in Gan. But the bank did a credit check on the purchasers and there was an outstanding loan that they hadn't disclosed so the bank wouldn't give them the money and the deal fell through. They are having to get their well fixed too as the levels of ecoli were high (they didn't drink the water, but used bottled)
Kim is painting their Portsmouth house to get it ready for tenants. So close to having her as a neighbour again, but I guess it was not to be! (unless they get another offer on the house real soon)

Jordin and my mom asked about the Fisher and Paykel washer- I got it at Leons- apparently they are an international brand. They were the only top loading washer that was an energy star. I'm really pleased with it.(can you tell?)

I know a lot of people who are trying to sell houses in Ontario who haven't had much luck.

Thanks Aphra!! We will be in the market for a new washer and dryer when we move.

It really isnt a good time to try to sell a house... fortunately, we can afford to hold onto this place and still buy a new one. We will probably rent this place out and have a friend care for it. I guess it can be an investment for us... :)
