Not enough time !!

some days it just feels like there just isn’t enough hours in the day!!

My sister has decided to move home from Ontario, she’ll be home in just 2 weeks so I’ve been running around getting her apt. and tomorrow I’ll go and get the lights hooked up in it and I’m on the hunt for stuff to go IN the apt. its the little things that she’ll need  that is giving me the headache,, things like toaster, can opener, dishes,, that kind of stuff,, Nick and DJ is giving a patio set for her to use for a kitchen table and chairs for the time being.. she needs a bed.. a little TV would be nice to have .. its a lot of running around to get it all pulled together, but we’ll get it done,, thankfully I finished up what I wanted to get done in my gardens so I’m not trying to get that done too :)

I’m sure I can find some pots and stuff here to put in her cubboards.. other family members are going to see what they have for dishes and stuff like that.  Thankfully the way the apt is laid out,, we only have a kitchen and bedroom to worry about there is no livingroom :)

Karla will be home in 3 weeks time , can’t wait to see her!!! hopefully everything will come together for her when she lands,, she wants to get into school so it’ll be going and seeing about different colleges to see if she can get in.. there is one that she has a good chance of getting in.. then it’ll be on the hunt for her apt and getting her settled in Charlottetown for the start of the school year in Sept.  But she’s all set up as far as stuff for her apt.. she’s been picking up stuff over the years and has everything she needs except for furniture for a livingroom so that won’t be a big job to get her settled.

Wendell will be going for his interview on Friday, hopefully that will work out well and he’ll have his job.. likely won’t know anything back on that for at least a few weeks.

So we’ve been busy the last while back but it will soon all settle down I’m sure :)

Have a great Hump day everyone!!

Sunday and sunshine!
