Nova Scotia - Week 2: Update

Week 2 has almost come and gone. Routine has set in which is a good thing. Jaymie continues to enjoy school; today was a half day and she enjoyed that even more. She also has attended two youth functions this week which she enjoys. Mary Ann continues to get a stronger grasp on the reservation system and all things related to it; tonight Melinda, a former campground office manager and new friend showed us some of the ropes. It was enjoyable spending time with Melinda and her husband Dick.

New storage room

Maddy's future bedroom

Myself, I have been busy renovating the basement, which has been going good but taking longer than I had planned. I finally finished the storage room; this was a multi-faceted endeavor. In order to make the new shelves I had to relocate all the campground supplies, dissemble other shelves, build the new shelves and then re-organize all the supplies on the newly constructed shelves.  Well after a week it’s all done and I can begin building bedrooms in the rest of the basement. I also spent a day trying to organize all the tools and other supplies in our garage.

The weather has been a roller-coaster. The warm weather on Wednesday melted all the snow we had, yesterday was clear and cold (minus 8 – Okay not really cold) and today all the snow came back; the big beautiful flakes that add up in no time. Only 8 more sleeps till Maddy arrives - YEHH!

In regards to yesterday’s blog – it was a good day – I was able to choose to be happy. I am not sure this will always be the case. I know for some it is nearly impossible, but for me today it was.  Have a great weekend - HJK
