quick update

You may suspect from my blogging absence that we are either a) dead or otherwise unavailable or b) doing too much fun stuff to have time to blog. Neither would be true! We are still kicking, just passing the weeks by. What is relatively new and relatively interesting?

Well, the condo is still under construction, but a couple of new developments have been spotted. First, beams have been put across some of the 'indents', which will support concrete for the decks. (Phewf. We thought they may have forgotten the decks.) Second, sheets of drywall can be spotted on the first, second and third floors. Third, they have actually started putting up a bit of siding! This is quite exciting, because it's good eye candy work. I've got a photo on my phone which I'll download after work.

In the work department, not much new to report at Halifax Regional Municipality. Steve is finishing up a rotation in gyne onc this week, and begins four weeks of emergency on Thursday. Since emerg is shift work, he will have lots of time to do various chores he's been saving up (e.g. dentist, passport renewal, etc). I think he's really looking forward to that... (At this point, it's four more months of emerg, ICU and surgery until it's all anesthesia all the time.)

In the weather department, well, it's still winter. -9 C this morning, which has been pretty typical for March so far. I am looking forward to it getting a little warmer, but in the meantime, I definitely appreciate having a little more daylight!

Finally, there are a couple more sewing projects in the works, but they either need to be delivered or finished before they get immortalized on the web.
