Oh, and the newest addition to the house is a 42" plasma tv! :-) Talk about a difference in picture quality!
On that note, I'm off to get Mom in Ottawa! Woo-hoo! :-D

Colour makes the world go round...
As promised, here are the pictures of the house...though they really don't do it justice as it looks better when the natural light is brighter and it's been a pretty overcast day.

Tryptophan...it's good for what ails you
Yes, it's belated, but Happy Thanksgiving. My favourite of all holidays has come and gone for another year and I have had enough turkey to hold me over until Christmas - just barely. It's my favourite holiday because it's one of the last few that hasn't become a commericalized event where gifts or chocolate are the order of the day. It's all about food and family and get togethers and it's the sure sign that fall is in full swing and that the snow will be falling any time now.
Tryptophan is the enzyme in the turkey that makes you sleepy. I laughed today at work because we filled a prescription for it - yes, it's actually available as a medication - and I thought, geez, just eat some more turkey and you'll be fine!
That being said, I'm on day 7 of a 9 day stretch without a day off and I'm beat. Got lots to do before Mom arrives - in less than 2 days! I'm sorry I have not yet posted pics of the house, but expect them Thursday around 5:00, as then I can be sure that Mom won't get a sneak peak before she arrives. Until then - happy dreams and if you're living somewhere the leaves are changing colours, be sure to get out and enjoy it - I LOVE FALL COLOURS!

And now...the news
We're adopting!!! Yep, it's official, Foxy and I are going to be the proud owners of this cute little girl labradinger (that's dog owner speak for a black lab, springer spaniel cross) - she's only 2 weeks old right now but is fiesty and SOOOO adorable. We may have her as early as the first weekend in November! :)
We should have the house completely put back together by tomorrow night so hopefully I'll have the updated house pictures up this weekend.
