46 1/2 Rodney Road

I've been in Nova Scotia for 1 week, and have basically melted away here in the humidity. Josh and I seriously contemplating the purchase of an air conditioner - our upper floor apartment is pretty hot, especially when you're hauling boxes, painting old, ugly bedroom furniture (which turned out great!) and putting up the shower rod for the 18th time because it keeps falling down.

Otherwise, the apartment is great!! 46 1/2 Rodney Road is the upper floor of a 2 story house. We are right off a main street, beside a pub, and seconds from a bus stop. Right up the main road is SuperStore, Staples, Reitmans, Bulk Barn, Wendy's, McDonald's, Winners, and a liquor store. Everything we could ever want. It's not the quietest neighborhood, due to the main road nearby, but it's not terribly loud, either. The pub next door is not a loud place, so I don't anticipate too much trouble from them.

We are allowed to paint, and I think next week we will start. We'll only do the living room and the bedroom, so it shouldn't be too much work. We did paint Josh's ugly old bedroom furniture (circa 1965), and it turned out well, I think!

Tonight Josh and I have our first marriage counselling session with his pastor, Reg.

    Hi Leah and Josh,
    love what you've done with the place! Super good. That pub next door could come in real handy when you need a quick bite to eat.....
    love you, see you soon
