I realize that it's been a month since my last post, and it's not for lack of things that need to be done. In my last post, I mentioned that there wasn't much else to do... I was wrong.

Chris has been busy painting the great room, staircase and upstairs hallway. We also picked up a new TV - 40" Sony Bravia with a Sound System. Chris created a system for the wires that go in the side of the fireplace, snake up the inside and come out of the top, so the wires are pretty well hidden - he's pretty handy.




Our next task is painting the kitchen. On our most recent trip to Dixie Paints - our Local Benjamin Moore store, we had a chat with Joe, the manager about painting our kitchen and he helped us to pick out a couple colors.

We've narrowed it down to 2 choices.

1) CC-90 Natural Linen
2) CC-250 Seaspray

Natural Linen is the larger of the two chips.





We've also finally decided on a Dining Table! After waiting months and months for the set I saw at Costco to come available again, I found a Table at Urban Barn that I really like. It's reclaimed barnboard, so it's eco friendly.


In other updates - Bath and Body Works recently opened in Mississauga.

I picked up a couple things for the house.

A Pumpkin Scentport - Like a Glade Plug-In, but smells delicious, doesn't give me a headache and scents the entire house!


A Caramel Pumpkin Candle - Smells like sweet, spicy Caramel.


I've already been planning for my next visit and will pick up one of these:


some rooms sprays and some travel sized shower gel, lotion and body splash in Coconut Lime Verbana .... smells like summer!
