Well, so far it has been a packed couple of days! I am off till Monday so we have used these past three days to the fullest!
Thursday we went shopping, went to work/church to meet people and also went and looked at a basement suite, which we did rent, effective immediately! So then Friday was spent cleaning the new suite (with the wonderful help of my mom & sister), going downtown to apply for Ronel's SIN card -- which was successfully completed!, and then home for dinner and then back to the suite to clean some more (and on each trip we moved some boxes of stuff I had packed waiting for our own place). Today we went and visited friends and saw their new home and Ronel got to meet some more new people -(I've been trying to do introductions in small groups so that Sunday won't be so overwhelming with introductions at church, especially of people who are close to me) after that we came home, packed the van with boxes (had my mom's van) ate lunch and then headed to the house to unpack. My mom met us there to switch vehicles and we got permission to paint from the landlords. We unpacked some of the rubbermaids into the kitchen which was a lot of fun cause quite a bit of it was gifts from my bridal shower and other gifts I gotten over the years which have never been unpacked before! Now we are off to a friend's 30th birthday and more new people for Ronel to meet!
