The Big Move (Part I)

Our condo was sold and we had to vacate the unit by the end of July for the new owner to take possession at the beginning of August. Our new home doesn’t close until the end of August. We chose this date because Lauren is traveling and we need some time to get our ducks in a row financially and with the Lawyers and Realtors.

So all our stuff had to go into storage and I’m going into couch/futon surfing mode with kind friends for the month.

A huge thanks to Trevor, Robb, Derek, Ave, Rich, Jenn & Mr. Anderson for providing the needed labour to pack up the truck and help us put everything into storage.

The truck was supposed to be a 14 footer from Uhaul. But they failed to get me a truck in the time slot assigned to me for the service elevator in my building so they upgraded me for free to a 26 foot truck. Which is a beast to back into loading docks, driveways and try to attempt tight turns with.

If anyone is free in early September for Part II of the big move let me know! We’ll be looking for some help.
