We got a microwave! I bought it at Cora and then carried it back via the bus then my feet. The next day I discovered that I had bruises on my hip bones. The box was so heavy that I had to pull it against myself so hard so that I would drop it. I didn't realize, at the time, that it was hitting my hip bones so badly. I also didn't realize how heavy the box was going to be in the first place. The bruises lasted for a while and were quite painful.
We have a friend from Tunisia, Mohamed, who gave us some Tunisian goodies! They were yummy! I really liked the ones with the pistachios (the green triangular one).
Then, one weekend, we went to IKEA. We have been needing more storage space in our kitchen. This was our solution:We bought it, brought it home (this too was very to carry home on the bus, even with the two of us) and assembled it. Once it was together we discovered that it was ONE centimeter to tall! So we had to borrow a hack saw from GTL and we cut a few centimeters off of the legs. Problem solved. It fits very nicely under our stairs. I'm still working on the best way to store things on it.
We went out to dinner last night with some friends from GTL. We went to a fondue restaurant. It was greeeeeeat. We all ordered different kinds of cheese fondue and agreed to share, but David and I were very pleased that the one we chose ended up being our favorite. Since then I have only eatten an apple. It's already 6pm...I guess I'm getting a little hungry for dinner... Sorry, I didn't have my camera at the restaurant...maybe next time.
Tomorrow we are going to go to GTL to get together with a bunch of people who aren't going anywhere for the weekend. I think we will be having a cookout and carving pumpkins and playing video games. Duncan is going to come too. Another dog used to live there (remember Maddie from previous posts?) so I figured it wouldn't be a problem. It'll be fun! I WILL bring my camera for that. :o)
