Still housesitting what I am coming rto not-so-fondly call "The Neverending Menagerie of Psychotic Animals". 4 dogs, 2 cats, and a 13 year old can be tough.

However, I had a respite yesterday when I went skating at the Jones Centre with K-Nip and Siedsma. Chris came, too. It was a lot of fun- except for the young children who were evil enough to skate quite close to us and cause much screaming. Siedsma fell only twice- which was extremely good. K-Nip almost skated over a kid's hand when she fell so she went back to ask if the kid was okay. The skate patrol came up and asked the kid what happened. She yelled "I fell!". Well, no shit.

With K-Nip in the driver's seat, the journey home was an adventure. It's noy our fault if she slams on the brakes for imaginary trains in order to scare us or finds high speed merges her true calling. She's just crazy.

Then we all went to my house for monster ice cream sundaes and swimming. yum.

Mom and Lynn left this morning for Halifax and Toronto. Mom took up two suitcases with some of my stuff for school to lighten our load when I actually move out.

Only one more day of housesitting. I had to get the daughter up at 7am to go work out with our personal trainer, and that was an adventure.

Skating pics to come later.

KT- I got the Shanks uber slash from one of my MLs. God bless the slashers.,,,
