Yesterday afternoon, I packed up my computers and brought them back home again. I knew it would be a late night and I didn’t want to be doing this in the middle of the night. So, I brought them back and got them hooked up before heading back to spend my last afternoon with Toby.… Continue reading I am Home

Moving Right Along
I started planning a couple of vacations before I received the money from the sale of my house and those filled up my credit cards, preventing more plans until I actually had the funds in my bank account. I am happy to say that I finally received my money about a week ago and it… Continue reading Moving Right Along
Still Waiting
The original waiting time from the exchange of possession date of the house was to be 2-4 weeks before I receive the money. We are now at the end of week 1, so that leaves 1-3 weeks left to wait. As you may have guessed, I am very impatiently waiting for these funds in order… Continue reading Still Waiting
Life Goes On
Well, I am officially no longer a homeowner. 🙂 But, it will still be 2-4 weeks before I have been paid for the house that I no longer own. In the meantime, the water & hydro bills have to be processed, so the lawyer can pay the water bill and the loan on the hydro… Continue reading Life Goes On
Almost There
Just like when I was almost retired and got to the day when I could count the days left to work on one hand, the countdown is now very close to the day when I no longer have two residences to pay for and look after. Today is July 28th and on August 1st, the… Continue reading Almost There
We’re Getting There
I have just over 2 weeks to go until I am just down to having 1 home again. Then another 3-4 weeks until I get the money from the sale of the house. It is pretty scary paying for 2 homes and related expenses on just my pensions, so this will really be a relief… Continue reading We’re Getting There
Flower Update & a Bird
I haven’t been taking my camera back to the house while going back to clear things out, but I always have my phone and its camera with me. My Mock Orange is nicely blooming now and the Geranium in the pot on the steps is starting to bloom. I have found that a little Goldfinch… Continue reading Flower Update & a Bird
Flower & Moving Updates
My tall Iris flowers are now out. The only problem with the tall Iris plants is that they go down in the wind, and wind is certainly not uncommon here. I got a couple of pictures a few days ago and then I took one picture this morning after they were mostly on the ground.… Continue reading Flower & Moving Updates
Yard Work & Chester
The leaves are pretty much all gone from the trees, so on Saturday it was time to clean the eaves on the house.
It’s Finished
My Handyman Connection’s guy Chuck came back yesterday morning and finished fixing my sun room wall. 🙂 It looks so much better than it has all summer. He also climbed up to the eaves and fixed the downspout, which is where the water came from that got into the a joint that wasn’t joined properly.… Continue reading It’s Finished
