We should be painting about now, too bad life doesn’t stop when we have chores to do.

Off to Quebec for the Rallye Baie de Chaleurs. We won’t be painting there, either.

Slalom-y.

Congratulations to Daph for getting her Atlantic Region Motorsports Road Racing license!

We’ve been in the house for a few weeks now and its starting to feel like home… an empty, empty home. Currently we still have the old house on the market and it hasn’t moved as quickly as we would have liked. Some of this is our fault since we really should have done a bit more to it before the first-week viewing rush, but we listened to our agent that the aggressive pricing we put on the house would have people looking past things like ‘needs paint’ and ‘ugly carpet’. A busy weekend later and we’ve got the paint and carpet issues on the way to resolution, just have to get people in the door again.

We’ve spent some time getting minor things around the new house done, some minor plumbing issues corrected, stuff moved around wallpaper pulled down. We’re going to start painting this weekend and be on the road to making it our house properly. Unfortunately the one major thing we want to do, replacing the carpet with hardwood, has to wait until we’ve sold the old house. Good times.

Our lives have been pretty consumed by house stuff the last few weeks, which isn’t surprising. We have managed to squeeze out time for hobbies though. A couple weeks ago Daphne took the ARMS Road Racing School and participated in her first wheel to wheel race in the TRAC Tour series. Race #2 is this weekend. She now officially competes in motorsports a LOT more than I do. How did THAT happen?

Never have I wanted to play a puzzle game so badly. C’mon, you can conjure a crayon-animated Cthulhu and have him fight God on a skateboard!

Gratuitous artsy shot!

Lets see if its another month before I update again…
