Home sweet home?

After months of drama, heartache, frustration and disappointment, we're home.

Our home.

We even bought/unpacked/set up a shed! You only do that if you're staying, right?

It's going to take me a little while to get accustomed to owning again - funny that. But I suppose that the renting experience of the last year has scarred me ;)... okay, maybe only a little... It's more the MOVING 4 TIMES that's scarred me!

C is doing the full commute from Langley to Yaletown today... and I feel for him completely. IF he catches the right bus, the commute should last 1hr 22minutes.. start to finish (including the walk to the office from skytrain). If not? 2 hours or more, depending on just how much the bus was missed by. Translink? If you want people to use your services (rather than buying a car and driving in, which is what he's talking about at the moment), you NEED to make them more accessible/frequent/cheaper. The traffic on the #1 is caused by people that live here! Right - going to stop there before it becomes a full-on rant.

Back to the house :)

We need to fence the back of the back yard... we need to finish the basement for the girls... other than that? Can't WAIT to hit the garden store! (to that end, we've made a pact - one that I'm positive will be broken the SECOND we step foot inside the hothouses... we're actually trying to make ourselves believe that we're only going to "have a look" ... to "scope out" what's available and "make a plan" for the yard. Yeah. We'll see.)

It's getting done. And the more stuff that gets put away, the better it feels.

Hope to invite all of you over soon :)
