    New Home, New Ride?

    Dave and I have officially moved into the new apartment, which is great - except we have yet to spend a night there. All our stuff, with the exception of my mattress and my clothes are over at the new place. Even all my food is over there. And yet I'm still living at Christian's place until tomorrow since we are going away for 10 days I didn't want to leave my cat alone for longer than necessary.

    The whole moving process was interesting. We got the keys the last weekend of April and were able to move a few things directly in after picking them up. Over the course of the week we moved more things in as we had time. We got a couch from my cousin Keelan. We picked it up and drove it back to London on Thurs (in a deluge!) and brought it directly into the apartment. Saturday and Sunday was spent moving the bigger furniture like my desk, my futon and my bed frame (hence the mattress on the ground situation).

    Tomorrow (thurs) with some luck, Dave will be able to move my mattress and my clothes over to the apartment and we'll spend one night there before going off to visit my cousin Camille in Calgary.

    Between all the moving, I'm working both jobs and also going to look at a potential new car this week! My poor camry has been giving me the middle finger for a while and last week had a fit and decided to just turn off and refuse to turn back on (at one of the busiest intersections in London!). I borrowed Dad's (well, Mom's) car for the last few days with the provision that I'd bring it back to him on Wed. I also found a pretty sweet deal on a car in Kitchener so I figured I'd check it out when I took the Buick back. Mazda Protege 5 - in a pretty blue colour!

    If all goes well with the car, I think I'll see if the guy will take a deposit from me until I get back from out west and have more time to deal with the whole car situation.

    Pictures of both car and apartment sooner or later!
