So our new lockdown starts tonight at midnight I believe, which is right smack dab in the middle of a long weekend. They thought that one out really well. Who wants to bet that people crammed in as much visiting as they could today?

While not a heck of a lot will change for the region I live in because we have been in a constant level of lockdown since the end of November. This new one is province-wide which “should” help somewhat…maybe.

I’m not feeling optimistic though based on the last year.

Okay, so I am now officially down to 1430 links that still need to be fixed. If you don’t know what the hell I am talking about you can see yesterday’s post which I actually managed to finish this week.

Are we fully moved yet? Nope. We need to tackle that shit 100% next week. Then we can focus on cleaning and cosmetic repairs.

As some of you noticed, I missed my regular midweek post. I have been in the process of moving this week and did not have any free time to sit down and put something together.

I hope to get back to it by this next week.

We are about 90% moved in now. The first day we got all the important things that allowed us to basically live and sleep here from that point onwards.

We’ve got boxes! Home Depot is now open and we were able to pick some up. I would have prefered to get them from someone that just moved and wanted to pass them but that didn’t work out.

It seems that either no one is moving or no one wants to deal with the hassle which I understand at this time because usually, Kijiji is full of people wanting to get rid of moving boxes.

Tom absconded with my little red wagon tonight so we can’t load any boxes up to bring down yet, although I can hear Roo packing her ass off (lots of tape sounds) which is motivating.

Happy Friday, but it’s now actually Saturday since it is after midnight and I haven’t posted yet. We spent the day today bringing some stuff downstairs to the new apartment.

Since we still don’t have any boxes we were fitting as much stuff as we could into our grocery wagon and bringing it down bit by bit…which is super long and tedious.

Update: both girls decided that they don’t care if their rooms are painted white. Merle said she likes the pink colour, and Roo said she is just going to cover it up with posters.

We found an apartment! It was the one that we went to see last weekend that is in our building. Tom dropped off the cheque on Friday and we get the keys on Monday.

It needs to be painted before we start bringing stuff down which will be accomplished I have no idea when, but we haven’t even given notice for this place yet.
