Curb-Side Pick-Ups

One of my favorite things I am finding about Toronto is furniture finding. I have a few great circuits of Thrift shops and used furniture stores that I love going to. But even better than that are the wonderful things I have picked up on my block on garbage day. This morning I was walking home from the subway after doing a double shift, evening and night (16 Hours).I was so tired but when I spotted these dressers, I had to have them. There was no one around to help me so somehow magically I mustered up the strength to carry them across the street and up the stairs to my home myself! I can't wait for summer when I can sand and refinish them. The only problem with my new found hobby is that unlike miniature collections or something of that nature, there comes a time when you just can't fit any more furniture in the house! I think Jeremiah probably thinks that time has long since passed. He will be surprised to come back from the holidays to all my new finds! ( I also picked up some great chairs since he left for Calgary,and will post a pic soon!!)

(Door Opens)

Everyone: It's Itchy the Holiday Elf!!!!

Kurt: We asked our friend Itchy to stop by and read us a light-hearted, heart warming upbeat happy Christmas tale, Frosty the Snowman.

Itchy: Actually I was going to read that... but I searched my heart and I am going to read one from a different book. I think it is something that is going to remind people what the true spirit of Christmas really is.


Rachel: Are you sure you don’t want to read Frosty? We all REALLY want to hear frosty!

Itchy: Dim the Lights.


"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field keeping watch over their flock by night and lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them and the angels said unto them fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people for unto you is born this day in the city of David, a saviour, which is Christ the Lord and suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly hosts praising God and saying Glory to God in the Highest and on earth, peace and goodwill toward men."

Welcome Otto

I guess something worth noting is the new 4 legged addition to our family...Otto. He is the cutest short haired tabby. He is 5 months old now and very teenager like. Active, friendly but wants to approach us on his own terms. I feel like I have turned into the crazy cat lady friend, but I love the Ottmaster!!! I can only imagine what it will be like to have a kid as I take like 20 Instagrams a day of Otts. Mostly when he is sleeping because he is so cute and finds the most creative places to take a snooze. I promise you he is awake a lot of the time. So anyways, here is an overwhelming amount of Otto pictures for you to view. I have to say that there probably will be more, so if you dislike cats, JerAmy may not be the blog for you!
Have a wonderful day!

Back Again

Well thanks to Shannon's encouragement, me loving Instagrams and the fact that I learned I can update my blog from an iPhone App may just make me update it more. So here's hoping that I may give my
Blog some love once again!
