We’re off to Toronto tomorrow night (on a red-eye – yuck). These last hours, as usual, are filled with getting all sorts of things (at work *and* at home) wrapped up before being away for a week. On top of all that, we’ve been pretty focused on “spring cleaning” for at least the last week or so. That’s been rewarding, but tiring. Still, it’s good to finally have done (most of) those things I hadn’t gotten around to in years. My closet and drawers are cleaned out, and despite our packrat tendencies we somehow managed to shed two carloads of stuff. One went to the dump, and another to a thrift store donation drop-off. We even cleaned out and re-organized our off-site storage space (a U-Haul lockup). Now I just have to find buyers for some of the leftover electronic junk…
Cleaning, shmeaning. We’re looking forward to seeing my dad again. Not to mention visiting our favorite (favourite?) Toronto eateries. And seeing old friends again – some of the friends rank right up there with the eateries. ![]()
And yes, if you’re reading this, and you’re in Toronto, I’m probably talking about you.
I haven’t had time to pre-schedule time with very many people, but we’ll be out on the town (in one way or another) on Wednesday through Saturday nights, and trying to fit in as many people as possible. We’ll see how well manage to do…
We also have a couple of mothers to do belated Mother’s Day things with. So Happy Mother’s Day to any moms out there (are there any moms reading this blog??).
It’s 1:09 AM here. Cripes. Time for bed. See (some of) you soon!
