It started with a text message. One I didn&#8217;t even take seriously. At first.
I was driving home from Montreal where I had just spent a lovely girls&#8217; weekend with two friends when I got a text. Now I [...]]]></description>

I also have girlfriends who love to shop and who are constantly trying [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I came home from the Ottawa Woodworking Show with an unwelcome souvenir &#8211; a yucky flu that has knocked me flat on my back for most of the week. I&#8217;ve affectionately dubbed it the Wood Show Wrath.

This week in particular has made me wish Christmas would hurry up and get here &#8211; if only for the colour the whirlwind of the season will bring. It&#8217;s not that my life isn&#8217;t a whirlwind in [...]]]></description>

He&#8217;s a woodworker, which can be somewhat of an expensive hobby. The deal was that he would make whatever project I picked out, as long as it called for him to buy a new power tool. It worked well &#8211; hallway mirror, plant stand, storage bench [...]]]></description>
