Well just when we thought things had turned our way... spoke too soon I guess! We got a call yesterday telling us that our condo we wanted to rent had been sold. :( It was SO great... and I know there are many others, but unfortunately now is not a good time to go looking. Jeffrey hurt his back last Sunday by getting a muscle spasm and so we can't drive the 4 hours there right now. Hopefully he'll start feeling better soon! His parents are steping in to help look for us and narrow things down to some nice choices and can take some pictures for us.
So last weekend we were there to look for a place and it was my birthday weekend. *sigh* What a birthday! I had known we weren't probably going to be able to do what I would like for my birthday (see the new Pride and Prejudice and go dancing), so had tried to resign myself to it and say, Oh we'll do that later... but I guess this selfish feeling of 'NO! It's my BIRTHDAY' came upon me anyhow and so I thought maybe we could see the movie that evening or maybe we could go to a Thai food restaurant after we looked at places or maybe.... and then Jeffrey hurt his back. :( He was acting very angry and upset and suddenly it was looking like I was going to have to go house hunting with my in-laws and uncle and aunt in-law alone. *sigh* I really didn't want this! Not on MY birthday!? Oh the tears flowed and I decided that I was going to stay with Jeffrey, at least we could take a nice bath and relax, watch a comedy on the laptop.. now that sounded like a nice birthday. Thankfully the in-laws were understanding and we got to spend some together quiet time. I didn't have the internet and only my cell phone on me, which no one called... *sigh* it's hard spending holidays away from family! When I got back to Sherbrooke I got some nice emails and phone messages though! Thanks guys!! :) Also Jeffrey got me just what I had been wanting (a new DVD burner) and his parents surprised me with a great fondue set. His Aunt and Uncle got me a cute little cake and we had a nice meal. So I have a rain check for the movie and dancing and it didn't turn out as bad as it could. Unfortunately Jeffrey is still down and out with his back. Please pray he feels better soon!
Oh I did have to go up to Quebec City for a doctors appointment for immigration on last Friday! It was beautiful!! I'll post some pictures soon. :) The Doctor canceled on us due to a medical complication in surgury... so we went a few doors down and ate at a nice vietnamese place! Hmm wish I had been a little more touristy and brought the camera inside... they had this great little table burner they brought out for us to warm our meats on. Yummy! Hmm food. Time to go eat now!
