crazy dayz...

so.. instead of doing shorter, more readable posts on a regular basis... I have a feeling that one of these days... I'll be posting a MONDO-post...
the short version of the highlights of the last few weeks are as follows:
- L. & G.'s wedding (photos to be posted soon)
- More renos! (no pix to be posted) Some more renos in the country house also! (I figure no one's interested in pictures of how to install ceiling fans... although I have to say that the only energy star rated fan I could find in the major dept. stores was at Home Depot and it was also one of the cheapest!
- The Straw-Bale-house building workshop at Everdale - one of the most fun, hard-working and enriching experiences I've had. More pix and details to come. Many thanks again to Ben of( Harvest Homes), Lynn, Chantal and the whole Everdale crew.

Which brings me to now... I'm in London (NOT Ontario) and catching up with my dear cousin and friend. :) Reminiscing the times and lovely memories with Javed (scroll down a few posts...).

Damn... I'm being summoned for food... I guess adding a few more pounds to the fifteen or so I've put on since leaving Spain can't REALLY hurt! ;)

photo city!

so... instead of doing something useful while out of the house (the agent was showing the apt to a potential client)... I took the following pix from the rooftop of the Pier. Clicking on them will take u to a site where you can see them in full size. :)
Enjoy!

work brain dammit!!

well.. tomorrow is the agents open house!This is the start of the procedure.We've JUST finished the reno's...ok.. so some stuff is outstanding till tomorrow... but the bulk of it is done! I hardly recognize this as our place anymore... but suprisingly it doesn't feel that bad. A lot less stuff... a lil' airy-er... not so bad! :) I've learnt a lot of funky reno techniques... and some of them surprisingly cool! :) Besides the one electrocution incident (after which I did call an electrician!) it was all good!
ok.. off to bed... gotta be up in 6 hours to finish up and then leave home till the agents have left.
ciao all! :)
And again... thanks to all those who helped out BIG TIME! :)
