Getting ready for Sabbatical
It's month late but
my building is getting close to
done. I had my deficiency walk through. The contractor
suggested a right hand rule approach to throughly visit every aspect
of the apartment. My right hand rule started in the hallway
bathroom. Of course the bathroom doesn't have much of a view.
Next is my kitchen, dinner area and living
room.
I was somewhat surprised how small the whole area is but I hope that
once it is furnished it will seem a bit larger. The fireplace was
a surprise - it was an option I didn't want (it's electric) and it will
be removed. The view really is fantastic.
Next is the den. Again, smaller than I
was
expecting, but the view here (without the deck ahead) is perhaps the
best in the whole place.
And finally the master bedroom and
ensuite. More things to fix
(electrical outlets aren't level for instance).
Moving In
I took possession on the October 20th (my last day before Sabbatical)
and had a busy week in front of me. I had already packed most of
my stuff into boxes and on move day (Monday) it took 4.5 hours to get
all my stuff into a truck, down a block, and into my apartment.
Now the real work begins - cleaning the old place and unpacking!
I gave up the old place on the 28th and I'm in completely now. On
the 30th (really early on the 31st) I fly out to begin my next
adventure...
