'Exciting' morning

This was an 'exciting' morning for me. M and I went to see a basement that our contractor is just finishing up in the neighbourhood. We were very pleased with what we saw, and we're 'looking forward' to getting ours started on Thursday. The contract is all signed and we're good to go.

Last night M and I went to Lowes Home Improvement Warehouse (new in Canada) and found a good selection of bathroom vanities. In fact, we purchased one, along with a new dual flush toilet (like the ones in Europe), and a laundry cabinet kit.

There are a lot of little things to think about. It seems to make sense to give the contractor a key to the house for the next 8 weeks, however, we would want to make sure valuables are out of sight. How exactly do you locate and put away all your valuables? Do these include video games and their systems, laptops, I can't even think of what else we may have. M doesn't think they need a key. Well, we are going off for a long weekend to Sauble Beach on Friday!

For any Amazing Race fans, it starts up again September 28th at 8pm!
