things have improved slightly since last week, though this morning i woke to find we've no hot water. they're getting a new maintenance guy here, so we've been warned that certain issues might pop up or be a bit slower taken care of; mike said he'd overheard some people talking about the water heaters, so i'm hoping it's in the process of being fixed. ...just checked it; still not warming up. i guess we'll have to take our laundry elsewhere. in short, mike and i have been looking for a new car to replace his. he's got his eye on a few, so we should have it narrowed down by the end of the week. i hope. i'm definitely feeling better since the weekend. since my health problems started, i've been having to limit the type of foods i eat; saturday i bent the rules a bit, so it surely follows that i'd get sick. not much else to tell at the moment; things are otherwise pretty well over here. i'm starting on a new project at work today which has to be better than the one i've been on. i'm also really excited for the arrival of fall. the days have started to cool off and i hope they stay that way. i can't wait to take the scenic drive when the leaves turn. (= my favourite part of summer is when it ends. =P be well, everyone.
