Floors Can Be Beautiful.
Now that the protective covers are off we can admire our
floors. They are gorgeous! Nancy and I are getting very excited to move into
our brand new custom-built Albi home. No more delays.
Move-in Date – Soon!
We make arrangements with a Moving Contractor to come when
we are ready to move the big stuff. They give us a quote of $1,200, for a two-story,
four-bedroom house with a finished basement. I think the price is right. The
small packing we start to do ourselves.
Packing Party with
Friends
How did we accumulate so much? Now, we start to feel the
pressure. But, we have a great idea. Let's have a 'packing party' and get our
friends to lend a hand. We invite a few close friends. They are happy to
help. We order in food. The night is fun
for us and it's nice to know everyone is carried away with the excitement too.
We have about 20 boxes to go in one night. There is still a lot more packing to
do. We make several trips to get more boxes from Home Depot.
Fencing between Good
Neighbours
There are still some extra costs that we need to deal with.
For example, we knew about our requirement to help pay for the fencing on one
side on the neighbouring property. When we actually move in, it moves to the
top of the priority list. But planning a house-warming party is also on the
agenda. Since we have out-of-town relatives who will visit this summer, we may
actually have two!
