See You In September

September is upon us, and it's already a subpar month.  My air conditioning is officially broken.  I did some master googling and found that the air filter might be the problem.  So I crossed my fingers, bought a new filter and started her up again.  And within minutes it was once again blowing hot air.  The good news is that it starts with cold.  Which might limit the possibilities for potential damage in a good way.  But what do I know.  I've asked a friend of mine with an HVACing husband to give me some hot tips.  Until then I will have to hope the days stay moderately cool.  Especially since starting tomorrow there will be two bodies creating heat in this apartment.

I went back out to Cobourg today, to give my parents a hand and wish my father happy birthday.  We drove out to Newcastle to start emptying their rented storage unit.  I got a bit angry with them a week ago when I found out they hadn't made a payment on the unit.  I was like, "HAVEN'T YOU SEEN STORAGE WARS???  Cause they're making a Canadian version.  And you don't want to see yourself on it."  After we got back to the house, my mom and I continued to unpack and my dad went back for a second trip.  Overall they were trying to trim down on furniture, they also bought new really nice new china cabinets.  Some old family china that used to be closed up in boxes is finally on display.  After lunch and a bit of chatting I got on the road back home.  Although I'll have the weekends to myself, tonight is my last night alone for a long time.  Breath in, breath out.

The good news is I'm going to use my mom to help me finish a few projects around the house.  Including buying and setting up a new desk.  And perhaps getting some old stuff into boxes and down into my storage locker.  At least this is the final push I need to get everything here put away and in order.  And she might give me the push I need to get some bar stools.

In other news, I rolled my own sushi last night and it was AMAZING.  Oh I can't wait to get that going again.  And for next time Kyle has recommended a butcher we can pick up some sushi grade ahi tuna.  Soon we'll be consummate professionals.  Sayonara.
