holy moly - 298 messages since i left.
its going to take me ages to catch up!!

hi everyone. i'm still up up here. have
been really really busy and i've got two
days left to finish up my list. i think
i'm going to make it <g>. the floor is
laid, and stained and polyurethaned - three
coats and looks great. the kitchen and
living room have been painted - the windows
we bought last year have been installed and
the inside frames painted - several coats.
and my neighbour ray has started on the
veranda/carport and will finish it after
i've left on thursday. its going to look
great. he's fantastic - builds movie sets
in vancouver.

i've really missed you all. my computer
access has been severely curtailed this
trip - the internet cafe is now on dial up
and busy and i always miss the library days
(its not open every day). haven't been to
the beach or anything this trip - just work
work work and more work. harold checked a
leak in the bathroom sink and while doing
so, realized the the bottom of the sink has
rusted out (galldarn military housing!!)
and literally disintegrated. so he tore
the sink and cabinet out and we'll bring a
pedistal sink up with us to replace it when
we move. that was the only surprise. he
left last wednesday - with a very long face.

i'm sitting in my neighbour's house using her
computer (she's a sweetheart) but can't stay
long.

i haven't seen a newspaper or watched tv or listened
to the news since i've been up here. how great
is that??

later .....
