Don't forget about me.
Found a place to live.
A trailer/house off the highway near the river just outside of town. Quiet, remote and surrounded by trees. A couple of bedrooms, a woodstove and an enclosed sun porch. Just what the doctor ordered. Although, truth be told, the kitchen is a scary eyesore. I might slap some paint on the cupboards just to brighten it up. It is totally 1960's trailer trash kitchen except for the appliances. But I can deal.
Movers dropped off *most* of my stuff yesterday, my television and a couple of bags missing (but apparently found and will be delivered later this week). Then this morning, I checked out of the hotel, dropped the rest of my things (luggage, etc) and Bailey off at the new house before hiking it back into town in time for work.
I have to tell you I'm already exhausted.
I don't have a car yet, the cab fare is about 30 dollars roundtrip, so I'm feeling a bit anxious about that. I still need some basic things for the house but am so tired and frazzled that they will have to wait until I have more time and inclination to get it all done.
Work seems good, I really like the people so far. Only39 days until the Ireland trip, then a long summer here in the Northwest Territories. I will try fishing again. As long as I don't have to kill what I catch.
Gotta run.
I am sure there is something else I forgot to do.
Email me, call me, text me.

you're living in van.. down by the river!!
kidding, it sounds kinda cool... i wouldn't use the wood stove though unless you're really sure you won't set the place on fire.
i'm paranoid about fire. i unplug everything before i go away for the weekend cuz i'm afraid of an electrical fire... ya, i'm a freak. top
