miscalculation

with our 3rd wedding anniversary coming up in june, i've been brainstorming ideas. for our first anniversary we went to the cove in westport, and we really liked that. the second year we went to see a play in stratford and stayed with jill. since our anniversary is 2 weeks from our baby's due date, i'd rather stay close-ish to home and westport seems a little far away. initially i'd picked the general wolfe on wolfe island, it's close and we could actually walk there, but it feels like we're away from k-town. but the pictures on the website look like their rooms have not been updated in 20 years, and the trip advisor reviews i read confirm my suspicions that it's pretty basic. so then i came up with the gananoque inn, because i've heard great things about them, and started thinking about getting a 1000 island boat cruise package. but b doesn't want to go to gan, it turns out he has negative associations with that town.

does anyone have any other suggestions? some place nice, local, and reasonably priced??

we've moved the kitty litter box back down to the basement. i tried to do a through cleaning down there and even bleached the floors. hopefully the kitties are back on track with their poop box and will no longer take to creative alternatives.

if there's one thing that irritates me about life, it's when people feel exempt from following procedures, making an effort, contributing to society because they think they're somehow above it. this extends to include when people refuse to recycle or conserve energy because they seem to think their small consumption doesn't impact the big picture. ugh. (i had someone tell me that they would've applied for my job, but were turned off by the whole 'submit a resume' aspect. sheesh! give me a break...)

these things happen all the time.

someone didn't want to apply for a job because they had to submit a resume? how else would you apply for a job?

apparently had he just been able to be interviewed THEN he would've been interested. seriously... there's some entitled/diluted people out there.

picton is an option...

delusional for sure....that's just not how it works.

i thought of picton too, but it's no closer than westport. another time, i'm sure.

seriously! you have to submit a resume BEFORE you get the interview. i think he just wanted us to hand him the job. no thanx. that's a tell-tale sign of a lazy candidate.
