Moved out (almost).

By -
So we finished moving our furniture to the new house. The renovations have not even started yet so we had to make do and fill the basement with most of our stuff. The move itself went fairly well. We hired a company to do the move, although we had already transported a good chunk of our stuff over to save on time and money for the big move (although I spent many days carting around tubs and boxes over so it was not really an overall time saver).

One of the movers when he saw the house said that he remembered moving a piano out from the house not too long ago. He described the location of the piano and what it looked like, which matched the pictures of the piano when we first noticed the house. (The piano had been moved out by the time we actually stepped foot in the house.)

In any case, we're nearly out of the condo now. Just a few more boxes left to pack and it will be good bye to downtown life..

In addition, we were too poor to really enjoy a cone of soft ice cream when it did show up so I never built up that sense of tradition that others would share with their children. As suck, when the truck does drive by, I don't rush out to grab a cone for my kids. Also, the pandemic does not help either. Still, maybe one day this summer we will indulge our kids. Maybe. Oh, but that was beside the point. Today I heard the ringing of a bell. This was not the sound I'm used to for an ice cream truck so I decided to investigate with Serena. As the truck drive by, I wondered to myself how such a small truck could be used to sell ice cream much less any kind of food. But then it dawned on me: this was not a food tru

Boot to the Head.

We were planning on going to the beach this morning but our plans got derailed when Serena stomped on Elsy's face and we had to wait for the bleeding to stop. It took so long that there was a chance we needed to go to the hospital. In the end, we thought it too risky to leave the house this morning lest the gusher started again, and so we set up the water table at home instead.

So them Polynesians..

So it seems as if the link I had to the Polynesian Cultural Centre was flagged as a bad site. I double checked the link and, yup, I got a warning when I tried to visit it. I double checked if the link was changed and no, the search and Wikipedia still point to the same page so.. I just removed the link. We will see how the repost goes.
