TO NORTH VAN AND BACK...LICKETTY SPLIT

Cookie:  My picture...We hung it up but its way too low and we just haven't moved it up yet.  Procrastination Station in this house.  I was just at Myles and Aprils the last day or two and he was going on  about how he just 'doesn't understand people that when they see something needs to be done, they don't just get up and do it."  He would NOT survive in this house.  Like we putoffskis  care....NOT!  Haha!!!

As I mentioned I just spent the last couple days in North Van with April.  I didn't see Clare and Tish, poor Tish had some issues with her back, poor thing.  Next time.

We had a lovely time.  We ordered Chinese food for supper on Saturday night.  It was delicious and then we sat around and visited.  I always enjoy our catch up sessions.

The next day we sat around and drank coffee and talk talk talked.  At one Myles went and brought Baka back.  It was so good to see her.  What an amazing lady she is!  I pumped her for more stories about her life in Croatia and her early life here in Canada.  I love her stories!  She is such a strong lady with quite the sense of humour.

We had made a list with things to cook for dinner. Myles was going to go and do the shopping while us ladies visited.  But before he left he noticed that the ensuite bathroom toilet was leaking a bit.  Well...long story short something blew!!!  Holy hell...poor Myles, the air was blue!  Eventually the main turn off was found and applied.  But not without a whole lot of angst and drama and streams of bad bad language!  LOL!!

I was just in the way so I went back to the living room to sit with Baka and seriously?  We couldn't help it...to the tune of Myles exploding in the other room, she and I almost cracked up.  Honestly, we were laughing so hard!  That poor guy...in the end he absolutely saved the whole apartment from being totally flooded!  But as a result there was no time to cook dinner, including the shopping.  So another phone call was made to the Chinese food place and we did a repeat....which was totally fine with us!  Baka loves Chinese food and she doesn't get the chance to get it very often.

After Baka went home we settled down and watched the movie Klaus.  What a delightful movie, I highly recommend it!

The next day, Monday, Pete and I caught the one ferry back to the Island and got home around four.  It was so nice to be home.  Monte had cleaned the place and it just felt good to be home.  We all three were very tired and hit the hay early.  Today the boys have gone to Victoria.  Peter has an abscessed tooth.  His dentist is in Victoria.  I gave them a hundred dollar Keg gift card I had laying around so that's where they are tonight.  I don't really eat meat anymore so its kind of wasted on me.  They will be back tomorrow.

And that's it for now.  I don't have much else to report.  Hopefully something momentous will happen before the next post!  (in a good way!)
