Still raining...

It's still raining here which is making things a bit tricky.  I kind of think super cold temperatures and lots of snow is easier to deal with than rain.  Snowy weather outerwear is excellent so you don't get cold or wet but heavy rain makes everything sloppy and wet and feel colder than the 9 degrees it's supposed to be....

The students are still on strike too.  10 weeks now and sadly it doesn't look like things are going to get sorted out any time soon.  Some of the demonstrations are getting quite violent with lots of arrests.  The public seem to be less behind the students.  It is totally dominating the press here...

On the home front, Fanta Pants is making his lunch for tomorrow and telling me he has never eaten so many berries in his life!  They are so good and so cheap!  He's also saying that we've never recycled so much either.  It's fantastic - pretty much anything that isn't compostable is recyclable.  Good work Canada!

Also around the house we're beginning to prepare for some important visitors!  We've never had a guest room before so I'm trying to put some things together and fingers crossed the "look" comes off!  I'm going for a vintage look and found some treasures at our local op shop yesterday.  Total bargain - $27.50 for the lot but no taxes!  Yippee!


Coming out of the shop I ran into someone I know.  Another yippee!!  I actually know enough people to randomly run into them!
