and the rush is ON!

August 1st, today has been another day of painting and sanding and we're still only on the kitchen. But I have made some progress. All the cupboards are now painted and put back into place (save for 2 doors near the stove) All I need now is to do all of the pull out shelves, and have Chris cut a few pieces of wood to close off some open area's and I can get on with the counter-top and bathrooms.
It looks like we will have this done for the party! Chris has also found another development property in Honduras, the company is not only Canadian, but right down the street. We must look into this now.
You never know... actually, we don't know. What do we know.... well, we know that we are moving. We know that we want sun, sand and sea. We know that we want a much simpler life style, one that our boys will be happy, and know the meaning of life. Not the rush rush of money making and keeping up with the Jones'. We know that there are 5 or 6 countries that fit our profile, and we intend to cruise around for a few months, a sort of vacation, to find our paradise of sorts. We are actually very willing to do a number of different things. It started out that we were going to start a restaurant. Chris would do Cinnamon buns and coffee in the morning, and I would do Sushi in the evening. (The most important thing here is that we are together as much as possible. That we are smiling and together. Oh ya, and NO SNOW!) Anyways, we would still love to do that, but we have also been throwing around the idea of an import/export business, and building a school, starting our own resort, or buying a bunch of land and selling it. Just yestaurday Chris bought an online school course about copy-writting. That could turn out to be a great thing. He really feels that this is something good, and I fully 100% support him. Anything to get him away from this shitty night shift...... Hey, and who knows, maybe, just maybe I'll sell this story.....

August 2nd. I've gotten all of the shelves, cupboards, chairs, and the first coat of the upstairs washroom done! I feel as though things are coming along nicely. Now I just need to remember to get to the dentist tomorrow.
