I'm back...finally

I finally have Internet for my computer. Last night the tech guy came and made some changes so it would be allowed.

Moving was a bit of a gong show. It felt like I was never going to get out of Saskatoon. Some highlights of the move:

  • one of the movers looked like Willem Dafoe

  • My car was not ready until 4pm. I had been ready to go at noon so I had to wait. I went over to a friend's house and visited her for awhile.

  • After my car was ready, I had to put on the new windshield wipers I had purchased. I couldn't figure how to put them on when I realized that I bought the wrong ones. I could not return since they were out of the package (I also lost the receipt). I bought new ones. I broke one of them trying to put them on in the Canadian Tire parking lot. I had to buy another one. To summarize: I had to buy 5 windshield wiper blades recently.

  • I realized around Kindersley that I did not know were my cell phone was. I had so much stuff packed in my car, I was hoping it was somewhere. I had a sneaky feeling that it might be in the loaner vehicle from the auto body shop. I contacted everywhere I was on Monday and I could not track it down. I tried calling the phone, I could check messages but could not find it. I finally had to suspend service on Thursday.



Until I find my own place, I am boarding with the family of my new employer. It just so happens my new employer is my cousin's husband. Currently I have the house to myself since they left on vacation yesterday. My cousin Saryn is another boarder here and she will return on Monday. Enough for now.
