Busy Times

We have had a lot of activity on our For Sale ads on http://ottawa.kijiji.ca and things are starting to disappear. Our dining room set, living room love seat and two wing back chairs, digital piano and a double pedestal computer desk are gone. They all went Friday evening right at supper time. Oh well, at least they are gone. Receiving some calls on our master bedroom suite as well now. There is still lots left to sell though. Perhaps some of our local Ottawa readers might be interested. Hint, Hint!!

I also received good news from the federal government. My former employer of 32 years has agreed to extend the window for my retirement move until the end of 2008. That basically means that the federal government will cover the costs of a mover, as well as all costs related to the sale of our old residence and the purchase/renting of a new home. The best part for us is that we don't have to pack anything! I contacted the movers yesterday. They will come over next week to see what they will do.

Chris's first two weeks at CHEO went very well. She is now off for a week before starting a regular shift rotation. Guess what we will be doing during her week off.....nope.......packing! Oh yeah.........apparently she does not cook on days after working a 12 hour shift. She dropped that one on us the other day. Now she tells us! We had a good laugh over that one! We pretty much share all the chores already anyway. Somebody has birthday next week as well.......hmmm.

I also sent in our registration and deposit for our spot at Tanglewood RV Resort in Sebring, FL this winter. Really looking forward to another fun winter in Florida.

I spoke with Robert Lowe from http://rv-partsplus.com/home/index.php about the problem I had with my left turn signal and brake light on the toad not working when connected to the motorhome. He confirmed that it is likely a blown 20 amp fuse. Apparently, the fuse block is indeed located in the electrical bay on our Bounder Diesel. I will check that out when we bring the motorhome out of storage and set it up at Recreation Land, http://www.rec-land.com/, east of Ottawa later next month.
