On An Amendum

So it turns out there will be a number of inline races this weekend. As I already feel stretched, thanks to the new home, past the breaking point, financially speaking, I have decided to go for a bike ride with my brother, rather than pay a race entry fee. (This is quite an achievement as he is a marathon runner and I'm a skater, we are meeting in the middle ground I suppose.) This weekend's goal, Oakville or bust!

In other news, I have Internet Access!! Yippee, no more stealing weak signals from the neighbours! And in other news, we have a central vac! Now if only we finished unpacking so we could clean the mess.

Recently I made a list of items I need the contractor to do for us:
  • change out pot lights for compact fluorescent lights
  • humidifier on furnace
  • wall mounts for TVs (location to be decided by Lesley)
  • surge suppressor attached to electrical panel
  • mount bike racks in the garage if that ever gets finished (still waiting on the builder for a garage)
  • timed motion sensor for the cat litter exhaust fan
  • blue walls in 2'nd bath (just a paint job)
  • fix damage I did with dad in basement parlour (attempt at putting up curtain)
  • hardwood in second bed and open space on second floor
  • California shutters throughout
  • engineered hardwood in basement parlour
  • finish painting (after we complete move in from old home, large furniture was left for staging)
  • A half height wall in the basement parlour at the entrance to the house.

I really need to win the lottery!
