Well now that all the birthdays are over it is time to get back into the habit of posting. My sister and mum both had festive days and thank all those who made it better.

I do not even know where to begin so let me just jump right in with whatever comes to mind.

Tuesday

Tuesday was a day off technically but once it was over it felt like I had worked a full day. It was a day to get everything in order that had to do with the car. That meant insurance and finalizing the down payment.

Sounds easy?? Well being a newbie to the car world it sure did not seem easy. It turned out very good but man did I waster a lot of the day doing things I did not need to do. On a side note it was Katie’s first day at her new job so that was exciting.

Back to me, I called all kinds of insurance companies and it was becoming clear that I was going to get killed since I had no history of insurance. We are talking over 2 grand a year. I did not like the feeling settling in down in my tummy. I thought I was going to have to get abstracts from the Ontario drivers license place along with all kinds of other running around. Luckily I asked Peter, our super car dealer and he recommended a place. Sure enough I called and in 15 minutes I had insurance that I could afford. What an ordeal.

Wednesday

Back to work but it was totally new thanks to the car. Sleeping in 30 minutes longer, driving Katie to work and then a nice 11 minute drive to my work. I was still early! Makes a day a lot better to have more sleep and get to work when you want to get there.

The trip home is even better, no traffic and I am home just after 9pm.

Thursday

Another great day for driving to work. I got to leave early to go see a movie, the Illusionist staring Edward Norton. It was an okay flick although we had to sit in the third row and stare straight up. A guy next to Katie actually answered his phone during the movie, lucky for him Katie did not introduce him to her purse!

The story behind the movie was, my supervisor gets free passes from time to time and since I was working over night by myself during the company boat cruise, he gave me the passes and let me leave work early. The theatre was packed since everyone there got in for free.

The cool part was after, we went through the drive thru at Harveys!!

Friday

The car was going in for window etching, undercoating and some shine was being added so I had to drop it off early and get a crappy loaner for the day. Man did it make me like our car even more.

Went to get my Nova Scotia drivers license and I almost got it. I got up to the desk finally and everything was filled out and then the Ontario database was down and they could not issue me a license. Will go back on Monday and hopefully get some plates too!

I watched Inside man at home and thought it was really good. Clive was good and the ending was a nice change.

Picked up our car and worked that night. I was on my own due to the company boat cruise and it certainly made the night busy.

Saturday

Slept all day and when I got up we went grocery shopping………..in the car haha. Man that made even grocery shopping fun. We were back in no time to enjoy a nice dinner before I headed to work. Oh forgot something for Friday, need to go back.

Now it is 427am and I am at work watching crappy tv.
