Just another day in the life

09-01-22 Move in day and Hockey!

October 2, 2022


I had set an alarm but wished I’d added a couple hours. I dragged my sorry butt to Joseph Creek where I screened in and got the dolly and took it up to the apartment. I then realized there was no toilet paper so popped home managing to arrived back at the same time that Greg arrived with the UHaul. Shortly after that the two Mormon missionary guys, Ethan and Joseph arrived in their black pants, white shirts and ties. I felt sorry for them as they were between sessions with the living Profit who is here in Cranbrook for the weekend. They were very helpful and very friendly young men. I know we couldn’t have done it without them. Bill dropped off Eugene, the youngest of the home stay students and he worked his tail off, hanging clothes, opening and sorting, and then flattening all the cardboard afterwards. I stayed upstairs, unpacking and staging everything. I decided there are no ‘storage items and even unpacked the silver tea set although it needs polishing. Rae came by for a short visit with Greg and helped me put the bedskirt on that was one of Mom’s hearts desires. I brought the rest of her bedding home to wash and will go back to unpack the bathroom and hang pictures tomorrow. The whole place is so much brighter and with the large closets and store room in suite, it’s a big step up from her other place. Just need to find a guest chair and all will be well.

I raced home and changed my clothes before grabbing Tracey and picking up Greg to head to the Hockey Game. It was the first official game of the season and we had a shut out. I think it is going to be a good season. Had a good visit with Greg. We three tried to go to The Blind Pig and The Fenwick & Baker but they were both closed kitchens and one even had a closed till already so we couldn’t even get drinks. Pretty lame for just before 10 on a Saturday. Instead we drove through A&W and I dropped Greg at his hotel before coming back to the hood. Bill is going to pick him up for breakfast and take him to the airport in the morning. It was a short but lovely visit.
