Turkey's done.....

Today is All Saints day ...so a holiday and then Friday is a "Faire le pont".....take a day off between to bank holydays and weekend....

So long weekend…unfortunately I didn’t realize this until two days ago and started an experiment that required me to come in today…but that is ok. When I am not at work I am without internet….so I get to do an entry before I have a long weekend.

Things are still really good!

Back at the Ranch….ala House in Cambridge…SAJF is working to get all of the little things…..and some that have led to bigger things fixed by the landlord….who is a good man and sends people over right away, once he knows. The problem is with us…we see these little things and don’t say anything or try to fix them…and well that just means that before I left I had to call with a long list of problems.

The place is nice….and has been refurbished and with new furniture that is super cool and grown up…..but we now have a dampness issue…which has translated into other issues….Like Doors swelling so you can’t open them……

Nothing serious but things that make SAJF (who is the best housemate and friend ever) and I burst out laughing…..beause it looks sooooo nice….but we learning this house’s secrets….

Last night I spoke to SAJF and asked how it was going (as I have ran away from the scene) and he was bringing me up to date on the progress, some new problems,

and finally he said, “ Well, Maybe the house is trying to speak to us!”

Me: “OK well then speak back!”

SAJF: “How ?...Oh what like that time in Friends when they say goodbye to the hotel room and hug the walls?”

Me:…hee hee “Yeah like that…”….SAJF really loves Friends and is now getting used to the real actors voices after years of hearing the French actors voices….

Anyway he is visiting me in his country for my holiday….Thanskgiving….We will do it with a French twist….and that night we are going to watch a movie that I love and that I think can make us understand and laugh about our house issues…….

The Money Pit….. I love this movie check out this for my favorite 5mins……
