- If my dad got around to going over to this Ethiopian friends' house and picking up our vacuum clearner he lent them back in April, I could vacuum our carpets
- If my dad could remember whom he last lent our lawn mower to two years ago (1 and a half) I could mow our overgrown backyard's grass. (Seriously, it's a mess. It makes me want to cry. Plus, there's probably a trillion mosquitoes in it now. ---there's two LARGE ant hills already. I think dad put ant-killer pastilles (only word I can think of for them) on the hills but I think the ants aren't dead---I'd have to be dunked in bug spray and in long sleeves)
- If my dad remembered which of the Ethiopian girls has our spare folding bed (Ikea-type too), well....I suppose if we had any guests they could sleep on something other than the sofa
- If our mop wasn't half destroyed (how it ended up that way escapes me...) I could even mop the kitchen floor
I just don't think my dad should lend our things to his friends anymore if he's just going to forget about them...*desperately wants to clean the house right now* But because I still have to pay the property tax that I thought my dad told me my last cheque was going towards, I'll have no money this month (to replace the mower)except for the transit rebate which I think I'm giving part of to dad. And since my dad took so long (4 months) to call his tax lady, I don't think I'll be able to get my 400$ rebate. Unless someone can tell me where to find the T4s from 2004?
As has been the case every Canada Day since we moved here in '97, I am relegated to staying at home doing nothing.
Time to occupy myself with World Cup soccer. Allez les Bleus!
