Home Sweet Home

Well, we finally did it. We're finally in a city! Those of you who followed our roller-coaster-journey last year know how much we struggled and triumphed our way through "Life in the Knife." Now we're living our dream: we're married, we have a cute little house in Saskatoon, and we finally live within walking distance of a 7-11. I don't think Khodi could have survived without slurpees for another whole year!

Many of you know that Khodi's teaching at a high school in the city, and I am finding my way on to the sub list while also trying to find another job. In the meantime, I have my work cut out for me trying to set up our home. It's in pretty good condition, but it does need a bit of fixing up; paint and decorating would work wonders. Only a few days ago we bought new couches which I am thrilled about! You know, I find myself becoming excited about things like new couches, a good recipe, and stainless steel pots and pans. Does this mean I'm actually growing up? Let's hope so, because in only a few months I am going to be 25. I'm sure you will read all about my grief and sorrow when that haunting day approaches.

Another cool thing about living in a big city (besides, you know, other human existence) is that Khodi started boxing again and I started dancing again! Khodi already has a fight lined up in October so he's training for that and trying to cut weight. I start dance tonight as a student for once! I am so accustomed to being the dance teacher, I can't wait to just learn again. Tonight I have hip hop and tomorrow is tap. I hope all goes well.

Anyway, the real reason I am writing is because I am excited to announce that we have officially opened our new blog. If there was some kind of ribbon-cutting-ceremony that could be executed online, imagine that it is occuring right now.

Tada!

Stay "Tooned" for more reports from Toon Town.

Recommended wine of the day: Langmeil's Long Valley Shiraz (Barossa Valley - Australia). 3.5 stars from Khodi and 4 from me.
