Moving Day


Today is Moving Day and we are sort of ready - took stuff over to the condo last night and smudged all rooms, clearing out all negative energies that may have been left behind by the other tenants and also asking the Great Spirit to help bring joy to this new home. The picture was taken the day that I purchased the unit, so not my stuff, next photos will be of my own things in my own condo.

It was very exciting to stand in my own home - no one will ever be able to say they are selling my place and I have to move - except me. Now I a will have a sense of contentment. I will be abel to paint and decorate without worrying about what the owner will think. That's me - The Owner - Wow! And I had mail sitting on the counter - that was definately a "this is really happening" moment - Audrey sent me a "New Home" card from Ireland.

Deirdre called from New Zealand last night to say how excited she was for me to be moving into my own place, I wish she was here to share it with me. I could also use some of her advice on paint colours, drapes, etc. Oh well! There will be many others who are more than happy to help.

Victoria Day - or better known as the 24 Weekend eh!

Well it seems rather silly that Canada still celebrates Queen Victoria's birthday - on May 24th. Definately not a party person - she only wore black and never stepped out. On the other hand Canada has embrassed the 24 weekend - with cases of you guessed it 24 beers - and partied the weekend away. Victoria would roll over in her grave.

Yesterday my friend Gini (from White Rock, BC) and I went north of Toronto to Tottenham to visit my cousins then raced back to the city for a BBQ in High Park and did some last minute packing in prep for my move on Wednesday.

Today, May 24, is a beautiful day and Gini has gone for a walk along the lake - while I play on the computer - have been up since 3:30 am - as usual, cannot sleep more than a few hours.

We will pack some more and then go to another BBQ at Dave and Tom's here in the Beach - then down to the lake to watch the fireworks.

I cannot believe that in 2 more days I will be in my new Condo! Yeah!!!!
