It's Really Happening!

Sorry for the delay in updates, things are getting even crazier around here!

I feel like I've made more phone calls in the past couple of days than I did as a teenage girl, HA HA.

So I called all the utilities companies in Guelph and got Jay all hooked up with water and light and internet. He takes possession of the townhouse we are renting on Thursday night. I think he's looking forward to being out of the little condo and having some room to move around, although sleeping on an air mattress may not be that appealing.

I really enjoyed spending some time out in Ontario with Jay a couple of weekends ago. I added a few pictures of us that we took while we were out there. You can take a peek here:

Ontario Photos!

The Niagara pics are new, the rest are from my previous trip out there in April.

Today we secured the dates for our move! Here's how it's all playing out:

This Tuesday, June 3rd the moving company is going to pick up our SUV to transport it out east. That way we won't have to go very long without a vehicle on that end.

Wednesday, June 11th the movers will come and start packing up our things. It's going to take them 3 days to pack and load our house worth of stuff. During that time the kids are going to be at my mum's house. The van is being put on the train on the 13th so that we will have something to drive right up until the end of our time here.

The truck leaves Friday the 13th (HA HA, I just now realized how odd that is) and that night we are staying over at Aunty Moe's house. My mom will bring the kids there, and the next morning we head to the airport. Our plane flies out at 12:30pm from Calgary to Kitchener.

Our stuff should arrive in Guelph between the 20th - 23rd of July.

Still seems unreal to me, but I am also really relieved to have solid dates rather than just floating around in limbo.

There haven't been any offers on the house. We haven't even had a showing in three weeks. It's ok though, the guaranteed offer will be enough. Our mortage has already been approved on the new house based on what the company is offering us for this place. All is well.

Our possession date for the new house is set for November 15th which seems like ages away at this point, but I know how fast it's going to go by. Lincoln starts school in September, and by that time we should be settled into the town house. I am sure that getting in the grove of him being in school will keep me busy until November.

Even though we are moving in two weeks, we will still own this house until the end of July. If we don't sell it before the 31st of July then by default we get the guaranteed offer and the company gets the house.

I e-mailed the people I have in my contacts list with our new address and phone number out east. Jason is going to be sending it to anyone he has on his contacts that I missed so if you haven't gotten it yet, you will.

I hope everyone is having a good week! I'll keep you posted!
