Getting stuffs done....

This weekend is one where we just get caught up on all of the little things that we need to get done. Since we just received our latest mail packet from Canadia we were able to finally submit our taxes - and feel really good about the birthday gift that was included for Tina.

So, we caught up on bills, did our taxes, booked some hotels for when we head down to Heather and Mike's wedding in May, and for when Tina's friends come to visit in a few weeks. We moved some more movies and music onto our iTunes - we're getting closer to finally getting all of Mike's music loaded.

Oh, and what Tina was proud to take photos of, is that I decided to take our toilet apart and fix it so that it wouldn't continue to run after we flushed it....
Yes, we know that we re renting an apartment and we could just call them in to fix it. We did that before - after about 9 months our toilet started having problems and eventually we complained. He sent in a service guy and they replaced everything - of course he cracked the porcelain on the bowl which would leak slightly until we lowered the float. The new plunger system lasted about 3 months before it stared to stick.
I think that is something standard in the way things are here - things don't seem to last much past the 6 month mark. I pulled it all apart, it was just poorly molded parts and maybe some bad design - nothing that a knife can't correct. I also caulked up the crack in the bowl so that we can get a proper full flush again.

So yeah, that's what our weekend activities are, standard boring stuffs but don't worry, Barb and Nancy are coming in on the 10th of April so we will once again have guest bloggers and something for you all to enjoy reading....
