Gifts and the Move

 

It was a really lovely birthday with lovely gifts from hubby and DD1 and DD2.  After that DD1 and I went to my favourite restaurant for supper.  Hubby couldn't come this time because his back and cold were too bad to enjoy himself so we brought his supper back to him.  

This mug is from him as he has a brothers one and so got me a sisters one, gave us both long hair like we both always wanted but never seem to have at the same time. 

He also got me two more t-shirts from a place I just love.  One just a fun saints one the other for All Hallows Eve.

I just love that young Blessed Carlos is in the group in jeans and t-shirt.  

DD the 2nd got me a t-shirt and season one from my most favourite tv show - The Chosen.  What a great gift.

And DD the 1st found season two and got it as well.  The first three seasons can be tough to get and so I went looking and found season 3 so that will be added too (little gift from myself - LOL) 

As we were celebrating my birthday, DD the 1st got a phone call with great news - her stuff was finally arriving from BC on Saturday at 9 a.m.

We got there a bit early just to be on the safe side and although some clouds, it was going to be a rain-free day.

The truck arrived exactly at 9 a.m.

The side of the truck says Vancouver, BC and the truck plates say the same which just tickled me thinking this truck drove with DD's stuff across the country.  The truck was huge but the driver thanked us for finding a storage place that was just perfect for him to back in with ease.  Some places can be pretty tight or not at all but here he just just backed right in with no fuss at all.

In less than an hour all of DD's stuff was tucked into her unit and all checked and re-checked that everything was all there and all perfect - and it was.  Although it took awhile the move went really smooth and DD's stress level dropped right down as now she has all her belongings.  

Today we will be heading back there to take over some empty bins and bring back a few more things needed to make her room a home for her and her kitty.  

Licorice and Tigger had one quick meeting but seems Licorice tried to be the boss so it didn't go that well.  They are still keeping separate but Licorice doesn't seem to mind and loves her room (DD is only allowed to stay with her, not the other way around because we know who are our bosses - the cats.) 

This is Licorice who seems pretty content now that all this travelling is over with for now.  

So, busy busy few days but all is good.

Have a great Monday!
