The September LABOR DAY holiday weekend is upon us; hope all Canadians enjoy it. Many people are closing up their cottages and camps this weekend and the hunters will be here soon.

We are finally moved into our house; the painting took longer than we thought it would. Some of our movers bailed on us once again but thankfully we made it through with DH and three young lads and myself packing & cleaning as they went. Some other friends were at the house on the other end trying to keep things organized for us. It was a bit chaotic, but finally got the big stuff done after 6 hours. Then DH and I and his sister did the rest of the house on Sunday. PHewwwwwwwww ... glad thats overwith .... oh dang, my keyboard is turning everything into french on me and I cant figure out how to get rid of it. arrgh ... àààà

Will have to end this post and hope it goes away ... Rosebud

Well I googled and found out that I could change my character map to WINDOWS WESTERN, and it worked for a while but as soon as I unplugged my laptop and plugged back in the problem came up again; not sure why but then I checked and it was still set to WESTERN MODE, so something is odd. I may find out some day what is causing this; or not ...

Hope you are all having a great long weekend; our weather is a bit cool and damp here right now but the rest of the week is supposed to be fairly nice. WE had turkey and roasted veggies with a light fruit crisp for dinner; gotta have at least one dessert each week, and today is a good day for that.

Have a great Monday ... Rosebud

Hi Rosebud, glad to hear things are going well. How are you liking the new place?

It's september and summer has finally arrived here... we're supposed to have record breaking temps for this time of year... almost 30° every day this week. How crazy is that? I don't mind so much since it means I can leave my veggies out in the garden to ripen a bit more... summer was so non-existant up until now my garden is a pretty sad sight. I don't know how I managed it but my grape vines have not only survived the past 3 years but now they're bearing fruit! I can't wait to eat grapes grown in my own garden!

I'm managing to work out more though I still have to work on my eating... I am really really unhappy with the weight I've put back on and I'm not in the shape I was last year. I was pouting at the kitchen table after a run about how dissappointed I was in myself and my husband came along and kissed me on my very sweety cheek "I'm still proud of ya..." he says... aaaaawwwwww.....

HI AUNTY ~ We're loving living here in our own house; it is very quiet and peaceful here. The neighbours are all nice too. It does take some time to settle in; I mean getting everything unpacked and set up. We have most of the curtains up; just a couple of blinds to do soon.

I had all the dishes and most of the food in the house when we moved plus most of the small stuff; good thing too. We will be unpacking and soring for some time; gee, I thought I got rid of lots last time, but now I still see lots that I want to dispose of ... so on I go ...

DH is wrassling with his vcr/dvd player; he hasn't played it in a while and it was a new gift for his birthday in the spring. He is trying to recall how to set it up himself; I keep offering to help but he wants to try it himself.

We had awesome weather here today; last 2 days felt like summer indeed and I hope it stays until October. We had some weird weather this summer for sure. Pasta night tonight; put some in the freezer for another time too.

Have a nice summer/fall week everyone ...

Hi Hope everyone out there in Canada is doing well.

We only had one week of summer... We're still at higher then normal temps but no where near the 30° we had last week. I've been doing well with my running... logging 5.5k about 3 times a week. But I need to remind myself to do something on my no running days, even if it is just a bit of wii yoga... I really need to cross train.

Glad all is well in the new house Rose My house is also stuffed full of, well, stuff. We have a lot of my parents stuff from when they downsized into an apartment. Every once in a while I get sick of it and get rid of something and that's usually just before my mom asks for it. Good grief!

Do we want to wait for the "official" start of fall for a new thread? Or should we do one now since it is fall in Canada? (I think we should do one now... IMHO)
