This weekend I invited Angela out to Lake Wabamun for tubing and swimming on a friend’s boat. It was a great day as the weather was hot (+30) but the lake was cool. We were trying out her new 3 person tube. It was huge and very stable so the driver had to work extra […]

Moving Done… Mostly
by Bertha on 29. Jul, 2009 in Canada 2006
Most of my stuff is now out of the house. I guess I didn’t really tell anyone about moving. I don’t know why… I tried to organize my bedroom and it is near impossible to make it look different than it was before as the registers/vents/windows are not positioned as well as they are in […]
