A Dose of Normal

Since August, life has been crazy. Build-up to the wedding kept us busy, followed by prep for our honeymoon, followed by our actual honeymoon. When we returned home, we were back to reality, but by no means back to our regular, everyday, normal life.

When we got home, there were thank you cards to write, wedding registries to close, a sadly neglected house to clean, birthdays to celebrate, turkeys to be eaten, laundry to be washed and errand after errand to be run.

And when we were finally done all that, Tom decided to head to Seattle, and I decided to head to Toronto.

My friend, M, left Calgary over a year ago to start a new career. She wasn't able to make it to our wedding, so I booked a flight out to visit her. It is only for two days, but it was a much needed visit.

Me and M, post-gelato.

Weather in Toronto wasn't anything to rave about last weekend. It was about 15 degrees and overcast. It also rained for most of Saturday night, and part of Sunday morning. However, the trees this time of year are absolutely beautiful! Calgary had a very nice autumn this year. The leaves turned the most vibrant shade of yellow I have ever seen. But because Toronto has a wider variety of trees, the myriad of colours was fantastic!


Now that I am home, I am ready for a little normality. This weekend couldn't come sooner!

Happy Friday!
