FOR YOUR READING PLEASURE on my life for the past month!..lol!

I have got to be the worst BDW member ever lately! I haven't been able to participate much in the forum because the last month and a bit have been insanely busy it seems.

 

I finally moved from Vancouver to Toronto!! yey no more long distance with Michael (FI)! the move happened on Sept 29th.

 

The weekend before that was my friends' wedding in Toronto, so I flew back for 36hrs, with the two kitties....which btw did A-ok on the flight. I totally freaked and before boarding the plane I made one of the ppl working there physically walk down to the plane to make sure that the kitties were on board and that their cages were facing eachother. I refused to get on until he did this...I'm sure he thought I was nuts and was probably ready to kill me!

 

That weekend was exhausting, oh yea and I turned into a nutjob and cried at my friend's wedding. I couldn't help it! I don't know if it was the wedding, or the fact that I was coming of the gazzilion of anti-anxiety pills I'd swallowed (to maintain my sanity) during that last week...but either way I cried from like 2pm to 10pm lol!

 

I had this really amazing plan for the last week of packing and living in Vancouver. I was going to get a bunch of wine and have a packing/wine party with one of my friends....well that didn't happen. I got uber sick, and had a raging fever by the time that I landed in Vancouver. I had to call in sick on my second last day of work :S yea...they didn't believe me that I was sick. So I spent the week packing while coughing, sneezing, and doped up on buckleys and neo citran. the one positive is that with all the meds I didn't really need the anti-anxiety meds

 

I packed monday through friday, finished work wednesday, thursday through saturday I had my last installement of my business analysis certificate, Michael came in Friday night, the movers came on Saturday morning along with the land lady and utilities ppl to disconnect everything, I had my exam while the actual move part was happening...but I passed so whatevs. Then Sunday morning we flew back to Toronto together.

 

So...what have I been doing since I got back?! well....Michael and I finished our invites, got them back from the printer and put them together over a period of 3 days..in which Edyta helped! yey! thanks dude! I just have to say that I DETEST BOWS now. After tying a billion little stupid satin bows I wanted to kill myself. But they're done and some of the guests have even received them!

 

I got a bit of good news before I left vancouver, two people from my company's office in Toronto were let go (shitty for them) BUUUUT they needed help and were willing to bring me onboard on contract, making the same rate as in Van, while I look for another job. So there's some security there. Now I'm job searching, and with the markets being as they are, its proving to be more stressfull than I thought.

 

Michael and I and our two kitties are staying with my uncle until we move into our own place. Which by the way, we got an apt downtown!! yey! THANKS HEATHER!

 

We're both feeling the pressure to get jobs, and move and be settled. Spending two days job searching, going to interviews, studying and then the other 3 working full time is not fun

 

So that's my recent life story in a giant novel for your reading pleasure I'm totally going to be on here more often now! I missed you guys!

Woot woot! Can't wait for the cookie baking and wine consumption to commence as soon as you're outta the burbs and into my (soon-to-be-ex) condo! You're going to LOVE being downtown! Your wallet, however, will not love being so close to the Eaton Centre. It's both a blessing AND a curse

Wow! Sounds like a crazy last few weeks for sure! Glad to hear you're in Toronto!!! It is way better here

I know you've met Heather, but we should all go out sometime for a drink! I am hopefully getting married at Dreams Cabo as well so we will have lots to chat about!

mmmm I loooooove all of the above!!! and I've already planned on getting starbucks hot chocolate and slipping some rum in there while we shop shop shop!!! our wallets will love it if were drunk!


Yea totally! it will be fun! As soon as I actually move downtown and out of burb-hell we're going to have to make some plans. Right now I apparently can't drink because I have to drive back home booo! Edyta, r u in for a BDW nite of booze and fun!?!?!

Wow you gotta lot going on. Goodluck with the job search.

Wow you do have alot going on. Good luck with the moving & the job search.

 

BTW- I would totally be the same way if I had to take my cats on the plane. I'm glad they did good on the flight
