Say yes to Hardwood floors!

Last Thursday, Bren and I had one of our most anticipated appointments...We went to the design center to pick out all of our colours, carpet, countertops, cabinets, doors, and yes...We even upgraded to an above stove microwave, and hardwood floors for our new house! It may seem minor to some, but having hardwood floors on the main level and all the stairs is paramount...Reason being, we have two cats. Both of whom shed like there's no tomorrow...And to boot, they both still have all of their claws! Now, this could prove troublesome upstairs where we are keeping the broadloom, but we are hoping they learn quickly to continue using the scratching posts provided (as they already currently do). Problem is, neither cat has grown up to know what carpet even is. So, it'll be a learning curve, and I'm sure everything will work out just fine.

To change the subject, and to continue from my last post, booooo to the Leafs! I mean, they had their chances and they blew it! I know that it came down to the final game of the season for the Leafs, and the final game of both New Jersey and the NYI's season. Toronto won their last game, and all that was left was for New Jersey to win, and the Leafs were in the playoffs. But Jersey opted to not play their key goaltender, and rested some other players. Outcome (although exciting at times), a New York Islander victory...Booo! They Leafs missed the postseason yet again. All that I can say is that I am frustrated! Not that New Jersey decided to give Clememson a chance in net (and BTW, he played really well), but because the Leafs squandered many-a chances throughout the season and played themselves out of the playoffs...Not once or twice, but way too many times to count them. The D was off, the goaltending...Well, don't get me started. And the injuries. Also, how many seasons must the Leafs play before they finally figure out that a whole NHL game is 60 minutes long?!?! Not 20, 25, or even 40! But this is neither here nor there...The Leafs are out of the playoffs, and out on the golfcourse! Fore!

Cheers!

Okay....Wow! It's been a while!

Okay...So, where to begin??? Hmmm, let's say, a lot has gone down since my last post. Bren and I bought a new place in the M-Dot! We don't move in until December, but wow! What a big step for the both of us! And are we ready??? Yup, I think so! It's pretty fantastic! We'll be in our new place in less than a year! And yes, it's a new place...Built from scratch...Thanks Mattamy! That's correct, Milton...Mattamy...The fastest growing community in Canda! Good times for re-sale! Well, we're hoping anyways! Not that we're flipping, but in 5-10 years, the price is sure to go up! :)

Next up, the Leafs! Okay, what a game tonight!!! First, we're winning...Then, we're losing...Then, well, we won!!! Next step, the Isles losing tomorrow! Well, here's to hoping! And if NYI loses tomorrow, we're in the playoffs! And do we deserve it??? Not really, but I'll take it! As long as they start Aubin! Raycroft = a pretty good back-up goalie...But, they pay him 1.5 mill...So, they'll of course start him...Now, lemme tell you, I'm not a pro...In any way! But, give me half of what Raycroft makes, and I could probably compare! And, I'll be happy! Don't yell "Checkstr, Checkstr"...As a matter of fact, booo me! I'll strive on it...And cost less than Razor! I don't doubt he's a stand-up guy! But, put him in net, and stand-up...Not so much! Go near him, and his down! Then, they score...Always! But that's not here nor there, Aubin rocks! But will he get a chance??? Nope, the Leaf organization paid too much for Raycroft...So, we'll play him, he'll dissapoint...Then, we'll sign him again...But why??? Well, because we're the Leafs! And we'll cheer, then, we'll boo! Will we ever chant Razor! Razor!???? Nope! And, well, that's fine with me...Go Aubin Go!!!

Cheers!
