Balmy January

Here we are getting close to the end of January already and there still hasn't been much of a winter here yet. It's quite unbelievable really. I don't think I've ever seen the lawn in January.
Of course everybody is getting geared up for the big election this Monday and based on the polls it looks like it's going to be very interesting. That is if you can go by what the polls say, but, nevertheless, I think it is going to be very close. I just get a kick out of the nasty commercials each party is running to put the other leaders down, but I think that the Liberals are grasping at straws with some of their accusations.
Our spare room renos are nearing completion. The paint is on the walls and it looks very nice. I got the organizer and the doors on the closet and we picked up some new ceiling tiles and a light fixture yesterday although I have not been feeling too energetic about installing them as I am on midnights at the moment. However, I have some days off next week and that should be good to get everything completed including setting up the bed and the furniture. And not too soon either as we may be needing that room within the next couple of weeks for a special guest. More about that later.
