It's going slower than anticipated because Sharon got a temp job at Canfor and is working 8 hour days, while Frank is back at school (with one class, but also a TA job and probably a funded project with a prof). But we should make some great strides this weekend.
The election is coming up fast (but not fast enough)! We only have peasant vision (ie 2 channels), so most of the time ALL we hear on TV is politicans bashing each other - we're getting pretty sick of it. But make sure that you get out and vote! Even if there isn't really a political party that you like (which is pretty easy this election...) Traditionally, the Conservatives are the automatic choice when you're a Christian, but man - Frank has issues with their social policies and Sharon's pacifist views really throw a wrench into things... But who else is there? The lying Liberals? Or the NDP who would put us into crazy debt? Hm. The Conservatives do have some interesting ideas about tax breaks for students and subsidized transit, and they seem to actually care that some mothers choose to not send their children to government daycare. Sometimes the lesser evil is the one you have to choose, even though it seems a crummy way to choose who to vote for.
