Ok this is it!

Hey kids, this is the last post of mine for a while. Today my stuff gets moved home from Ptbo and then loaded on the moving truck tomorrow, then we're off on Sunday! So the moral of my little story is that I will, sadly, be without internet for a while.

I'm excited to be going, but also sad. I'm really going to miss everyone so much. As soon as I have internet I'll be letting everyone know. Oh yeah and if you haven't taken a look at Skype, I'd reccomend doing so. It's voice chat software that works with Mac and PC. Anyways, take a look, it's pretty cool.

So take care and I'll chat again soon...

So...

it's been a whole week since I last posted. I'm not really sure what I've done other than pack. My brain is in vacation mode, so it's hard to remember what I've been up to.

I have been saying goodbye to people through various get togethers. Went to Champs Wednesday, fun times although the waitress was a little slow! Went shoping to T.O. and Whitby with Jeff and Lynda Friday and then we went to Larry and Terri's that night. It was sad seeing some people for the last time, but it was still fun. Always interesting to be one of the few sober people at parties...

On the packing front, I now have almost 10 rubbermaid containers filled! And a few boxes, too. I'm doing pretty well. We're down to about a week til we leave. Still no apartment or job. Working on the apartment at the moment. There's a sweet one we're trying to get. Keep your fingers crossed it's ours!

Hey...

It's been a pretty busy week. Wednesday was spent in T.O. at the Eaton's Centre and walking around downtown. Then we went to Boston Pizza for Jamie's birthday. After that since it was a Wednesday we went to The Trash for Retro Night! We danced up a storm...

Thursday started off with a trip to McDonald's for breakfast. Then we went to Costco where I got a great laptop/messenger bag.

Friday I ran some errands in preparation for the big move and at night we had some people over for a going away party. Thanks guys for coming!

Then Saturday morning I went home with Kenny for my family car rally. For those who haven't been on one before it's basically a treasure hunt in a car, where you find answers to clues while driving around. We were on a team with my cousin Brandyn and his fiancee Mel...and we got third place, with 2 other teams! A three way tie for third!! Not too shabby, if I do say myself. We had lots to eat and chatted around the campfire. Good times. It was kinda sad because it's probably the last time I'll see most of my family.

On the packing front...I have finally made some progress. 3 rubbermaid containers and 2 boxes fully packed. Yay me!

A long weekend...

The long weekend (which for me is like any other weekend) is coming to a close. Had a lazy Saturday watching TV, then went to a wedding. Yummy food and dancing!! Stayed up way too late...

Sunday night I hung out with my boys. Let's just say it was fun, but I'm not sure I'll be doing it again soon. Stayed up way too late again... (are we sensing a pattern here?)

Slept in today. It was pretty nice. Went to Smitty's with Kenny. Hash browns and toast/jam rocks!

Now I'm chillaxin' alone. Kinda bored though. Anyone wanna amuse me?

Honey I'm home!

Yes it's true! I'm back...2 doctors appointments down, one to go!

I got to spend some time with the family...and I even washed my car! Stella looks spiffy!

It's beginning to sink in that I'm leaving. I'm really starting to miss everyone. I know, I know...already! I haven't even left yet and I miss you guys. I think it's because I'm so used to seeing the people I worked with everyday that it was like having another family.

It's been almost a week since my last day at work. And I tell ya, I could really get used to this not working thing. Oh yeah, except for the lack of money coming in. But that aside, not working has been good to me so far. Shopping, sleeping, visiting...what more could I ask for?
