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!
