2008: Week 6

Matt was given some tickets to see a few Davis Cup matches this weekend, so on Friday afternoon we met at his office and made the chilly 10 minute walk to the venue. We watched 2 singles matches in the Canada vs/ Mexico men's series - both won by Canada in straight sets. The result is a little misleading, as both matches were pretty close. The whole experience was rather odd - I tend to associate tennis with warm weather, so it was strange to be watching in the middle of winter.

Saturday was "Hockey Day in Canada". Last year our household spent the day watching hockey on TV and playing hockey on the rink across the street. It was much colder this year, so there was less playing, and perhaps less watching too. I did watch the Ottawa game - after a few recent losses they gave Montreal a 6-1 pounding. Just as it should be :)

Best of the week
- Going out for dinner after French - it's lovely not having to run home and cook.
- Locally made lavender and mint bath soak - heavenly!
- A new tradition at work - afternoon tea, every day at 4pm, with biscuits!

Worst of the week
- Exhaustion, knowing it probably means I'm getting sick, wondering when the cold symptoms will start.
- Discovering that you shouldn't buy flowers when you have to walk 20min in the cold - the cut ends were almost solid when I arrived home!
