keeping busy

So the last time I posted was a while ago. I am going to start things off slowly. Ben suggested I start writing on here again to stop me from doing things around the house like hanging heavy mirrors on one screw and mounting shelves slightly crooked. These things, in his book, are a man's job...or a woman with more patience than me. I just want it done, and I want it done now! That is how I live my life. :D I am sure I would take more time to do things if I had it. Right now, the only time I have to actually get stuff done, is between naps. I am currently writing this with both hands while the baby sleeps in her highchair.
Winter is upon us, and I see alot of boredom in my future. We have moved away from centretown to a quiet street at the edge on hintonburgh..or as the locals like to call it "the wellington village". I was all for this, and don't get me wrong, I still am. It's just a big adjustment to make when all you have is your baby and your dog as company for most of the day. At least in centretown I could have walked places. Here, the only places I can walk to require me to spend money. I do have a car, which means I can pretty much go anywhere...so I don't know what has changed...it's just different.
I have recently resorted to reading the newspaper to my 5 month old. It seems to amuse her quite a bit. She laughs at the articles I make outraged faces to while reading them. We read our horoscope on a daily basis and that seems to amuse her too. I tried to read her the cartoons, but let's face it, the cartoons in the Ottawa Sun are not that great.
And on that note, I bid you farewell...for now.
