STOP!!!!



 

So this is what we are dealing with today. A freakin’ snow storm!  You can barely see the other side of the lake - and a little later you couldn’t see the other side of the lake.  It is April 6th for goodness sake.  We still have over 2 feet of snow in the bush!  It is like the middle of January!  The middle of winter!!!  Needless to say it is very depressing.

Stacey and Andrew and little Miss Shiloh were over for dinner and Stacey shovelled off the deck for me.  Just a few days ago we were enjoying a cocktail on the deck in those red chairs.  Now they are covered in snow.

On a happier note, we get some of our furniture deliver April 30!!

DONE!


 They started October 1st, 2025 and finished April 1st, 2026.  A talented team of local tradespeople turned a blueprint of a house in a BeaverHome catalogue into our home.  It was an adventure - one that I do not wish on anyone.  But we learned as we went along.  The house we chose has everything we wanted and needed.     I think the hardest part was picking out floors and cupboards and light fixtures and vanities etc. Surprisingly, I think we did pretty good.  A bit fancy but what the heck.  So so different from our other house.  It will be fun living in it.  It will take a while to clean it.  There is a lot of drywall dust and dirty windows and doors and little things we want to do.  Some of our furniture won’t be ready until the end of May so we have time before we finally move in.

So much to do…
