Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
Both of us had a slightly restless night and ended up
sleeping until nearly 8:30 this morning. Under normal circumstances that would
not matter one bit but today we had to hustle to make up time. If you recall in
yesterday’s post I mentioned that we had listed our beautifully ornate bedroom
set on Kijiji as part of our downsizing in preparation for our Fulltiming adventure.
By the time I published the blog last night we already had booked an
appointment for a prospective buyer to see it this morning for 10:00. We made
it through breakfast and were busy dusting and clearing any unnecessary items
from the bedroom. Moments before the appointed time we got a call from John
saying he was delayed but was interested and would arrive the latest by 11:00.
He arrived on time and was happy enough to leave a deposit with plans of
returning this evening.
Once he left Kathy and I quickly had lunch so we could now
run some errands. We sold the bedroom set not including our mattress and bedspring
so the first place we went to was Sears where we thought we could purchase a
metal frame for it. That’s when we were told they had to be ordered and since Kathy
wasn’t about sleep on the floor we headed to Leon’s. Kathy and I walked around
the entire store without a salesperson asking what we needed. We were about to
leave the store when Terry came to our rescue. They had what we wanted and
cheaper than if we had ordered it at Sears. Another quick stop to get extra
mailbox keys cut at Home Hardware and we were home by supper time.
John called to say he’d be around to pick up the bedroom set
by 7:00 but it was nearly 8:00 by the time he and his brother Harry arrived. Due
to wet weather forecasted for tomorrow and only the use of a short box pickup
they ended up having to take multiple loads. In fact they just left minutes ago
with their last load for the night. Now we get to set up our bedroom so we can
go to bed tonight. Thanks for following along and feel free to
leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.
