So it's been just over a week since the move.
It's been weird not working (I miss the kids), but at the same time I haven't had time to miss it a whole lot with unpacking, sorting, prepping for the garage sale, manning the garage sale and post garage sale etc.
Suffice to say I have been busy.
This also means I haven't really had much downtime to process me. Figure that can wait till next week when William is in school. He doesn't need to see falling apart me. He has enough to deal with as it is.
William is registered for school. I think the hardest adjustment for him is going to be the 15-20 minute walk to and from school. We are .2km short of him being able to be bused by the school and it would take us longer to take public transit then it would be to walk.
The house is in various states of unpacked/sorted/chaos. Partly because we had to wait till Jen left for BC and took all her stuff with her and partly because now that Jen has left we can't do much as Mom is working and I don't know where stuff is supposed to go.
William's room is 95% complete. His toy room is 80% complete mainly because there is spill over from unpacking (wheelie carts that have no home). My room is 75% unpacked, mainly because I don't know where to put some of the stuff and I don't have a small desk yet for writing/the mini puter.
The front porch/basement are on hold because Mom is teaching all this week and the heavy lifter aka Dad is currently marathon driving across the country with my sister to BC.
The washer, the dishwasher and the ice maker all decided to die the day I moved in.
The ice maker and the washer were at least under warranty. The dishwasher ended up being a $20 part replacement (thank goodness). The ice maker has been repaired. The washer, not so much. Wednesday if we're lucky, Friday at the latest. The sensors that tell it to stop filling and to start the next part of the cycle are pooched.
I continue to heal at a record rate. 2cm in the past week. My nurse is suitably impressed.
I figure the huge lessening of stress has helped a bunch with the healing and that and my nurse lady is just awesome. She is doing stuff for me that I know is definitely helping.
I miss all of you in Waterloo, and I suspect I will miss you more once I have less things to keep me busy all of the time.
Tomorrow I brave the new to me Orillia transit system (it runs till 1015pm and on Sundays now and there are 5 routes instead of 4!!)* with William so I can go buy him new indoor shoes and out door shoes as his current set are falling apart.
*the Orillia transit when I lived here last only had 4 routes and stopped at 6pm and only ran Monday to Saturday. Saturday it ran hourly.
