It
seems that we’ve fallen back into our routine of waking when the
Sun peaks through the Windows like it used to do
in the Trailer. Since the Sun also seems to be arriving
later in the morning that also means we are are sleeping until nearly
8:00. After finishing breakfast we made an updated List
of things we needed while shopping as well as from the Trailer
and Storage Unit.
We
continued picking through the few Boxes and Storage
Containers we still have in the apartment. Like living in a RV
everything has a place so if there was no place to put it we just
left it where it was.
I
needed to do some measuring so we would have some sizes when we were
out. Then I starting to move a few things that were stopping us from
arranging the Furniture the way we wanted. As mentioned in
yesterday’s Blog we stopped at Canadian
Tire last evening where I picked up a few Cable
Connectors. By using a 90 Degree Connection I was able to
bring the Desk much closer to the wall but it just wasn’t
working the way I had hoped.
After
doing a few other things Kathy made us Italian Wedding Soup
for an early lunch. It helped to warm us up as well as satisfying our
cravings.
Our
first top was at the new Lowe’s where
we managed to find a few things that will help us out. Lately Kathy
is finding that when she bends over to look in the Kitchen
Cabinets she seems to loose her balance. What we
found were Full Length Wire Baskets that she will be able to
simply pull out allowing her to see exactly what is in each cabinet
without bending over. They only had Three in stock today so
we’ll wait to pick up more. Also if we ever move they will be taken
with us.
We
also found the Vertical Blinds we want for the Balcony Door
which we can use for regulating the heat of the Sun in the
Summer as well as giving us some privacy. We were also looking
for a small Bookcase but the ones they had were just too wide.
We
then tried Home Depot looking
for the Bookcase but they had nothing for us to see.
We
headed over to Guardian Storage
and were surprised to see a large Road Grader levelling the
lot. By knocking down the high points it was also filling in the pot
holes. We stopped at the Trailer where Kathy gathered more
Books to bring to the apartment while I found a special
folding stool and my special Tool Container. We then went to
our Storage Unit where we did some grocery shopping.
Our
next stop was Zehr’s where we
had about Eight items in our cart.
When
we got back at the apartment I dropped Kathy near the front door
because the Cold Wind is making it difficult for her to
breathe. Our high temperature for the day was only 36 F (2
C). Since there are only small Shopping Carts in the
building I would take One out to the parking lot load it then
bring it inside the back door where Kathy would take it upstairs. I
would then repeat the process with another Cart.
Once
everything was in the apartment Kathy started getting things ready
for supper while I set about relocating a Cable Plug. It was a
little tricky because I only moved it an Inch and a
Quarter. If you look at it now it’s impossible to tell that it
was moved.
We
are both feeling tired considering that we started doing this Nine
Days
ago and there is still more to do. We’ve also noticed that we are
so focused on what we are doing that we are forgetting to take
pictures. Sorry!
Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

Wow, you guys are sure going at this full throttle. Time to take it easy for a bit.
ReplyDeleteMoving always requires SO much more than we realize. The cold weather probably isn't helping. It should slow down soon!
ReplyDeleteI think it is a wonderful idea to have shopping carts for the tenants to use to bring things from their cars to their apartments.
ReplyDeleteHope you soon get to slow down and enjoy the fruits of all your hard work.
