I started to write
my friday-i’m-in-love post
yesterday
but got a little sidetracked
by the insane amount of rain
that fell (and found it’s way into my basement)…
Summerside had between 93 and 114 mms
of rain
IN 24 HOURS.

Needless to say,
last night was a broken sleep night
as I had to set an alarm
for every hour or so
so I could go see if I had to pump
water out of the basement.
Yes, this could be solved by a
real sub-pump
but for now, I have to make do
with my mcgyvered system. 🤭

BUT…the roof did NOT leak!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
(no thanks at all to the original roofing company
who apparently caused the problem but
placed the blame on my chimney)
(plot twist: the chimney was innocent)

ANYWAY…I am soooo looking forward
to September!! I always love September
and not just because it’s my birthday month, heh…
but this September:

Four day weekend right now!
My birthday!!
Winners is opening in Summerside…ON MY BIRTHDAY!!
I thought I was going to miss seeing a bestie’s visit home but turns out that I will get to see her just before number 5….
WE ARE GOING TO NEWFOUNDLAND FOR A WEEK!!!!
The roof is done so I have someone lined up to replace all the water-damaged drywall in that bedroom (and the hallway) and THEN I can move forward with my plan to PAINT IT PINK!!🩷🌷😍

September is looking pretty fun!

AND NOW…THE LIST:

🫐 my sweet and so-talented bestie
(i know i say bestie a lot but
i can’t help it. accept it.) made me
like SIX of these adorable, absolutely delicious
blueberry pies!
she suggested i freeze some if i didn’t think
i could eat them all.

umm. i ate them all. 🤭

🎥 A friend recommended this and it was so much
better than I was expecting. It was funny and sweet
and I love Jennifer Lawrence.

🎥 HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?????

OK…i have more but this post
is already wayyyyyy too long.
Happy LONGGGGG weekend
and welcome to September!!
