To find what I am looking for might take a year the real estate agent said! Good grief! The market supply is very low. The 1 house we ended up looking at did not have a big enough kitchen for me and the garage would not hold both of our vehicles. Plus kid #3 needs to park at home for the next few years off and on. I would like to have another parking place so that we aren't playing musical chairs in the driveway.
The second house is already conditionally sold after 1 day on the market. The conditions are removed after next Wednesday so that will stay on the back burner.
In the meantime I deep cleaned and purged one of the bedrooms. Went through all of my "work" clothes, came out with 2 large bags to donate, a big bag of misc. junk to throw away and about 40 books to donate to a classroom for grade 7-8's. 1 box that can go into the garage sale. However I have a ton of sports awards still there from kid #3. Apparently I still need to keep them according to dh and the kid. Trophies/medals/plaques/big framed photos/banners.... they are all over our 2 empty bedrooms. I guess when we move they will be pared down? But he won another big award at the end of the season, so that needs to find a spot yet! There is zero room in his bedroom as he opted for a bigger bed vs more floor space. Ah well I've had worse troubles!
I did over do it and my neck was killing me 2 days ago. All I could do was sit with the heating pad on. Thankfully after a day of rest it is better. I need to keep working on the cleaning and purging every day.
Our Easter was nice. I made a big ham. 8 people plus grandbaby. My parental units came to the city (told me the day that they were leaving) but stayed as usual at the golden siblings house. They dropped by for 35 minutes on their way home. Things are about the same with mother. I predict that she will be a very unpleasant handful to manage in the years ahead. She's having some sort of issue that she can't walk like usual. She was able last summer to walk 5+ km per day. Now she can't walk 300 m. She's not dizzy or short of breath. "I'M FINE!". So that's going to be an issue, but since she's "fine" I won't worry about it. As history has shown I will be called upon to fix everything when it hits the fan.
Monday is the vote in Canada. Our advanced polls had record setting attendance. I didn't get there as I didn't have an extra 2 hours to wait in line! I will wait in line on Monday. There is no way that I will not vote against our rhyme throwing temu trump. The ding-a-ling that I currently have as an MP doesn't hold a candle to the person running against him. So I'm voting for the educated, well spoken candidate.
Spring time
