This is what having 2 dogs looks like & lots of fun for me!

So after a week of having 2 doggies, hanging out with two looks something like this. Got out for at least 3 walks with both but then the weather deteriorated and then took turns walking them separately only to get the mail.

So basement half bath has been completely gutted and is patiently waiting for the chance to become a full bath one day. So here's where I come in. Whilst Darling Hubby is on a journey back to Ontario to deal with some unexpected family business, I am left to deal with scraping all of the leftover tile backing and glue off of the cement floor. It's gonna be a blast; I can feel it already! Can hardly wait but I'm sure in a few days I'll be wishing I still had my hot tub from my old house to soothe my sore muscles! 

A Funny Pic & Learned Something New

While we were out shopping at Costco yesterday spotted these 2 guys/gals? patiently waiting for their owner who was inside shopping. Had to snap a pic but I wasn't the only one taking pictures. By the time I got to take my pic, one of the two decided he was bored with the whole scene and turned his head away from the action. Oh and by the way he/she was sporting sunglasses too! Apparently the pair are regulars at Costco and get plenty of attention. I'm guessing no one will ever drive off with that truck! 

Pot Rack is now hung above the island and the stain on the granite still remains but not an eyesore. The island is working out really well for us and we are very happy with our purchase.

Still waiting to get my membership at the gym set up so stayed home today and managed to squeeze in some fitness time on my elliptical. 

But for the most part the next pic shows how most of my day was spent. One of the recommendations  of our Energy Audit was to insulate plugs & switches with these foamy things. Had some on hand so I got right to it. I had done this in our previous home but just on exterior wall plugs & switches. Found out yesterday that you should also do this on interior wall plugs & switches. The guy who conducted the audit explained why this should be done but he lost me at the physics of it all. I was never good in math but I trust that what he was saying made sense. 

Another tip/trick I learned was to save the foamy cutouts from the holes and attach them to baby safety plugs and stick them in outlets that aren't being used for added insulation. I never in a million years would have thought of that and would have tossed out the cutouts. It's always a Good Day when you learn something new!
