The Last Day

Well it's finally here, after a month of constant work all of the packing, downsizing, lifting, trash runs and cleaning is near over. Today is the final day of cleaning up the apartment and finishing up the odds and ends of necessities getting packed away.

Starting tomorrow, the moving truck will arrive as will the cavalry of family to help move the last bits that are actually going to Vancouver.

In a way I look forward to Wednesday night because it will mean it's done. No more lifting and packing. However that also means my Mom will be off in Vancouver and no longer be just a couple blocks away. There is hope though that this is only temporary and that soon I too will be living it up in the big city, but until then I get a reprieve before I resume the task of downsizing my own things, though far more lazily since I have a lot more time on my hands.

Overdue

Well this post is overdue...by a lot. So let's recap where I'm at.



- Learning to cook

Haven't started this at all. Oops.


- Finishing my High School credits

Progress was made but it's now halted. Hoping to begin finishing any and all assignments I have before school starts back up again in September.


- Leading up to The Move

Sadly not a huge amount of progress was made here. The end of July is the moving date. So far the Storage Room of Doom is totally finished that in itself is a big achievement. Aside from that it' just a bunch of little things completed like cleaning out the food cupboards, smuggling stuff from my Mom's to my Dad's and cleaning out various cubby holes. In four days my Mom will be done work and we will be doing the mad dash to get things caught up and ready.


- Learning to drive

Also not started. Oops.
