Things were back on schedule with the house until yesterday when they were supposed to start the carpet, apparently the stuff we ordered was a 'bad batch' so we had two options; re-order and wait 3 weeks for it to come or order new stuff and wait only a week! We went with the new stuff which is actually a better quality carpet which they are giving to us of the same price but now we are behind by another week!!!
The laminate and lino will be done by the weekend so when the appliances arrive after the weekend the electrician can go ahead and install them right away.
Mom arrived on Sunday, thankfully we are still at our friends for the week, she has been busy cooking and entertaining the kids. Thanks mom!
Carolyn started her new job yesterday, she loves it already, good people to work with and a layed back atmosphere which will be a welcome change compared to what she has been used to. She hasn't missed her old job yet, she had to rush me there yesterday after a failed attempt a severing a finger she had to take me so they could sew it back on.
The kids are getting excited about going back to school, Kirby and Blair start next week and Erinn the following week, they picked up all their school supplies already, they will just have to carrying it all in shopping bags until we move in and can find their backpacks.
As for me, well things haven't been going so good, I spent last week training the recruits, I think the combination of sleeping in a real bed and the laser treatments had improved my back, things were going good until Friday! I must of slipped a disk or something which resulted in pinching the nerve running into my left leg, I have been suffering all weekend with excruciating pain, they are trying to get me in for an expediated MRI in Calgary to see what is causing the problem, worse-case scenario will be emergency surgery to free the nerve. I'll keep you posted!
On the bright side the weather has been bearable, sunny but only highs of 24-26, plus some rain, of course that will change next week when we move back in to the camper.
