19 days and counting

Well we are on the final countdown and only 19 days left till we move out of the apartment and take possession of our new house. I have been packing everyday and getting stuff ready for us to move. Matthew has been phoning around and looking for a new internet plan and checking out insurance prices and all of those things that also have to be done before we take possession of our new home.
We have one more visit to the house before the old people move out and then we can check on a few more things , get some more measurements and check some final things before we move in and talk to them about moving our stuff from the apartment into the garage so we don't have to store it anywhere until we actually move in on the 2nd of April, as we actually have to move out here on the 31st of March. Everything always has a way of working out as we have seen in the past.
I am really starting to get excited about moving and doing renos to the house. We have to dig out the basement by at least 6 to 12 inches and thenn put in plumbing down there for a bathroom and a kitchen. Then we need to do a proper floor plan for the basement and make it into a livable suite for rent. After that we need to move the furnace and water heater and run all new electrical as well and get the house up to date. I am going to try and redo the current hard wood floors and the kitchen cabinets that are in there now and then move them downstairs to the basement suite. Lots of work to do , but when we are done it is going to be gorgeous and all our own. 
Our weekend here was great and we had the most amazing weather. It was 17 above here yesterday and so nice. I spent most of the day on the balcony packing and cleaning and preparing stuff for the big move. We went out for a couple drinks on Friday and Saturday and had a nice visit with our favorite bartender Isac who just got back a week ago from a month of holidays. I was really sick all day Saturday but am feeling a lot better today and getting better everyday I think and am hoping. I hate being sick and can't wait to just be done with all of this, especially the headaches.
