Moving, Storage and Transport

With moving around so often we have become pretty familiar with the different moving services available and luckily for us all our moves went really smooth which prevented a lot of stress. With having a large family and lots of toys in the barns some of our moves needed some special storage and not to mention bike transport which was great, this is a u-pack moving where you pack the items or items and they drive. It is a great movie service which makes your moves a lot easier. We don't plan on moving again any time soon but if and when the time comes I will certainly use this service again.

The weekend is finally here

It is Friday once again and time to enjoy some time off. Although it will be a busy weekend I am looking forward to this time home with my family then on Monday I will start my week off for my vacation. We aren't going anywhere this time so it will be nice to just hang out around the house and enjoy this time with the kids. Hopefully I will have some nice weather to enjoy but if not I have lots of projects I can get done inside the house.

Starting to get busy

Tonight was the first night of our new busy fall schedule, my wife had to take my daughter over to her big dance night. This was my first night with the 3 boys and it was a challange, we had to finish up homework, have supper, take the puppy for a walk and to wind down watch a movie. My wife is thinking about returning to work in the evenings so it was good for me to get a trial run to see what it will be like with the boys. I have a few ideas on how to better interact with them now to get the behavior we expect from them.

Crank the Heat

It is chilly here tonight, I find myself turning to the electric fireplaces to take the chill off. I'm very glad we managed to get a few of these heaters for the house last year, we have 5 in the house now and they are all over the place. They are fantastic because the blow the heat out so you can get warm quickly and they also heat up the room quickly. Another great thing about them is that they don't run on oil, like the rest of the house.

Sports Fan

It's fun being a sports fan and while travelling around it's great to try and take in whatever sports the local area has. I'm thinking about planning a trip down to Miami next year and with my son being a huge basketball fan I thought we might try to get our hands on some Miami Heat tickets. It would be our first big NBA game live and I think it would be a fun experience. Premium Seats USA is a great resource in getting great seats for all kinds of events from Nascar, to NFL, MLB, NHL along with great concerts and events you can get the tickets you want.

So you think you can dance

With dancers in the house it's exciting to have So you think you can dance on to watch. It's a great excuse for the older kids to stay up with Mom and Dad and hang out. Right now it's audition time and there are some exciting dancers and of course some funny dancers also. I look forward to spending the next few months watching the shows with the kids.

I'm not so sure I like this

I thought all dog's naturally loved the water but my sookey wasn't so sure about things when we took her to the beach and put her in, she swam for the floaty board and hopped right on up, and wasn't getting off for anything. She was cute with the panicky look in her eye as she was swimming along.

Ships Ahoy

One cool thing about living by the ocean and sea ports is the awesome ships that arrive in port. The other day a cruise ship arrived in dock for the day and it was a very impressive site to see it pull into dock. This is a picture we got by our home of the ship coming in. We are very lucky to be living near the ocean for treats like this.

Road Construction

ERRRR., that's all I can say, when you leave my house to go to work, I have 3 ways I can go to get there and all three ways I encounter road construction that slows things down. The projects are supposed to take up to November so I will have to get used to the frustration of hold ups and bumping around all over the place. It will be great when all the work is done but it can certainly be frustrating in the meantime

What do you think about the upcoming federal election, will the Tory party continue on as the reigning government or will the Liberal, NDP or Green party make a run at it.

There has to be some discusssion of tax breaks for the general public to make some interest. I will be watching closely, Mr. Harper, don't let us down we need gas tax breaks and improved benefits for our children.

Struggling with storage

It's funny how much differance a year can make, when we moved into our new house last summer it was twice the size of our old home. Now in our other house everything had it's spot and we had room to live. After being in our home for a year we have never gotten to the point where everything has a spot. The biggest issue being storage so we spend the last couple of days working on closets, changing hang bars and adding shelves where possible to make organization easier. We will have to see if the changes we have made make a differance in our day to day life once we get a couple of weeks in with the kids in school.
