Boy called last night -- we got the house I want, but still no word from the NS job. Gah! We can't make the decision without all the info, and I really don't want to lose that house. He's going to contact NS job today. Hopefully they'll be able to tell him something useful. All I wanted to do was sit down and weep in confusion last night, so ( Read more... )

The first half of my moving is now finished (and the worst -- packing is one of my least favourite things in the world), and I've just returned from Toronto where Boy and I found a few possible houses.

Boy got his info email from new job today and is leaving for Toronto on Saturday. I'm glad he's going back -- he's been driving me mental since his second week home and I can tell he's really excited about it, though he feels badly about leaving us.
