Day 8 ....REALLY?

So it's now day 8 and I've been camping out in my living room. Thank goodness my aunt Catherine brought me some air mattresses.  I don't suggest using Across Canada Movers. This morning at 7:00 am a moving truck drove into my neighbors parking space. I was thinking that FINALLY they came and got the address wrong. I ran outside with my fuzzy slippers and yelled, "I'm over here!" Turns out they didn't have the address wrong and it was for my neighbors. Day 8. Still no furniture but on the plus side no squirrels. Day 8. I'm over it.

Day Two- Squirrel In The House

It feels sort of weird sleeping in an empty place. Although, it has been allowing me to focus on working on my scripts without any distractions.

I woke up in pain this morning.  Maybe it's because I'm older and can't sleep on the couch. Would it be better to sleep on the floor? Maybe even the bathtub could be a comfortable option.

I opened the door to empty out the garbage and a squirrel ran into my place. Day two. Squirrel.
How did I capture the squirrel?  Suite cases came in handy again. I'll leave the rest to your imagination.

Day One In The New Place. No Furniture.

As some of you know I've been moving across the country slowly, but surely back home. I started off in Fort St. John, B.C then to Cochrane in Alberta, then to Calgary on a farm. Feeling thankful that I am now back home in Ottawa where I grew up.  I've moved probably more than many people have moved in a year. I'm hoping not to move for a while now as I focus on my career and my writing.

The movers keep misplacing my stuff. It was lost for 3 weeks. Spent the first night here without any of my things. Slept on a couch that the owner left here. Got a call that it is going to be a week late. If they don't misplace it again. I bet some stranger is sleeping on my bed right now!  This is what happened on the first day without anything.

Day 1

Slept on the couch. Fire alarm went off when I just literally turned on the stove. No chairs to reach it. I had to use my suitcases to climb up and to take the battery out of the alarm. Clearly, a short person problem. I am now drinking coffee out of a lime green plastic cup. This just the beginning.
