Moving

Jesse and I have moved to Red Deer! After what seemed like having the hardest time to find a place, worry about how much money that I would have for this move, worrying about gosh knows what else about moving and we have finally just did it! 

I cannot lie the beginning of our move was just frustrating. We had booked a u-haul two weeks PRIOR to our move date. We went to go get the trailer and what do you know…it was not there. How great knowing that I had to start a job the following Monday. But luckily they had a trailer in Taber, so we got 50 dollars off our u-haul since we had to drive all the way to Taber to grab our trailer let alone move all of our junk into this trailer. I swear next move we have I hope to have our own cargo trailer because the amount of bullshit that we were put through is just inexcusable. I guess that they gave our trailer to someone that did not want to wait for one, when there was a huge line-up to begin with (eye roll). 
Even though we got the trailer later than expected…we moved pretty fast. We had originally planned on moving in the following day leaving at like 3 in the morning to make it to Red Deer for 8 am. But Jesse decided to just move that following night since it really did not take long to move all of our stuff. So we drove all the way to Red Deer the following night. We were surprised because when we got there our landlord was home when he said he had to work so it was nice to finally meet him. 

But when I initially saw our place I was freaking out because I thought it was so tiny at first, so I was worried that everything wouldn't fit but we figured it out. I am so grateful for my mom though she really motivated me to unpack things and get our house sort of set up. We at least had our kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom set up by the time I started my job on Monday. 

But we took advice from our landlord and we tried this breakfast diner called Glenn's one day. They have a breakfast buffet which was so yummy. It was cute because they were all tea cup crazed out at this diner, they even had a little gift shop. It was at a good location too since it was on gasoline alley. 

Then I started work the following day and that is whole other story in itself.
