Yay passport office. Love it. Missing ID in one case, signature on another. I guess I'll be doing this again.

Fun Lions game so far, nice busy place. Mr Lazeo is doing well too. Go Lions!
Great Keg lunch with the coworkers, bit expensive but fun.
It was nice spending the day with my sick daughter yesterday, and she's feeling much better today. Now I feel like I have a lot of stuff to catch up on.

Wow. After a hot week camping and a warm weekend, the rain is sure coming down. Love it.

Caved and gave the kids McDs. Feel like a bad dad, but I tried to keep it "healthy".
Treyton had his first bite of food. Loved it, but didn't quite clue in. Loves sticking his tongue out.

Baseboards are done! Mitre saw was awesome, but not aligned right, have to call Home Depot (The Deep as we call it) for some tips.
Frustrated with implementing tooltips. Arg.
Had the best call with a telemarketer. They called to sell me some sort of Disney book selection but they kept laughing and had to stop.

Waiting for Little T at his kickboxing class. C'mon little ninja, hurry up.

Yay, baseboards all cut.I'm the guy cutting in the backyard at 9 pm. Jerkface.
Racing home on hot Skytrain to help wife finish baseboards. Have to grab mitre saw first.
Sister J - there is cake in the fridge. I repeat - cake. in. the. fridge.
Jumping on the bus - back to work. Hope everyone had a Happy BC Day!

We're done. Floor looks great but baseboards have to wait. I'd post pics but the computer is now dead. 'Night all.
Almost done. End in sight. Frick - bamboo splinter under fingernail!
Late night, but still managed to get a bit of sleep. Headed out to get coffee and baseboards.
Flooring going well but so slow. Only 2/3 done. Need sleep.

Great church BBQ today, nice to help setup and tear down, not much of a leader though! Back at it with the flooring, going better.
Finally got the first row down after trying to find best way to deal with uneven wall and bit of raised foundation. Fun.

Ugh. Bought wrong underlay thanks in part to crazy Rona staff. Back to Ikea to improvise.
Finished ceiling, after couple baby breaks. Looking good, a bit slow. Moving a ton of furniture.
Floor tear out done. Got some SuperSeal underlay that seems cool. Considering painting the ceiling first.
Off to Rona to get underlay. Time to start the big flooring project!

Ikea - another one of those 'shallow' cultural experiences.
After 3 blackjacks in a row, ended up tied for first against company prez. He pulled it out, and won on a split. Sigh.
Lots of people must have taken the day off - kinda quiet downtown. Real clean after the nice rain though.
