    @Unicorn: Yay!
    Also I meant that you get a lot of snow there! I get.... sun.... sometimes rain? And a lot of wind haha!
    It's been not bad today though, just hot.. I had to walk a few blocks to sort out some documents - soooo glad I didn't get sunburnt!
    When I get sunburn I end up breaking out and my skin gets irritated.

    Ooooh this day has grinded my gears! :vanora_angry: :vanora_angry:

    So this morning my partner and I had to go and get some documentation signed by our real estate - so I can park on the street (we only have 1 space for a car and 2 cars)
    Our neighbor got it done and said he had no issues.. but ooooohhh boy have there been issues!

    I parked next to the real estate (the council is a block away and I didn't want to have to pay for parking twice)
    They said they won't sign the papers.. went to tell the council they said that they must! Back and fort like that... they finally sent off an email to our apartments property manager in the hope that they will do something about this.. guess only time will tell... back to being inside in the air conditioning :D
