SO what an exciting day yesterday was. I got up and headed off to pick out and pick up a new vehicle. Yes I got a brand new Jeep Wrangler! I was like a teenager in love. I walked into the showroom of the dealership and our headlights and eyes met, and I knew she would be mine! Ok Ok , kind of sappy, As I said yesterday I wanted a vehicle and I got it. I am posting a picture on this blog for you!
So it was a very busy day yesterday. I went and picked up the vehicle had to fight to register it as they wanted me to change my Alberta license into a training license, That’s a Saskatchewan licenses cause they don’t know how to drive here haha (jk my SK friends) So needless to day I picked it up, paid the price and drove back to the city. I had two complements from strangers yesterday on nice Jeep!
So after that I went shopping and picked up a load of stuff for the apartment, house stuff, and then the afternoon I spent at the Brick buying my furniture and and more stuff. I managed to get a smoking deal on furniture. And it is all nice stuff. Dining room set, couch loveseat, coffee tables, end tables, 7 pc bedroom set a $2100 mattress for $900, a computer desk, 3 area rugs, BBQ, TV Stand all for $4100. Not bad eh! The guy was really good and I figure I can toss him some more business. On top of that I just put it on the brick card for no payments or interest for 8 months, and that way I can get paychecks in the bank before paying it off. All the furniture except the dining room gets delivered on Tuesday and the Dining room when I get back from holidays. The Phone/internet/Cable guy also comes Tuesday night, So Tuesday and Wednesday will be spent setting up furniture and cleaning out the packaging and stuff.
A side note, a bird flew into the windshield of my new jeep, luckily it didn’t break BUT this didn’t happen on the highway, this happened on the main drag, of the city doing 50kmh. Needless to say I was not impressed. Dumb birds!
I also did another Wal-mart run last night and picked up a jeep full f things, small appliances, kitchen stuff, bedroom stuff etc. I made my list and every trip I make it is getting smaller. So I figure by tomorrow I will have most of the household items picked up and all I will need is to pick up groceries, which I will do when I get back. I picked up 7 bags full at the dollar store, and one more run there as well I should be good to go as well. I also have a box full of stuff need to bring back from Edmonton for here, phones a blender etc.
On the weight loss front, I guess all that running around and shopping is paying off as well, as I am now 1.2lbs away from my Friday goal of being down 45lbs(244lbs) by the time I get to my reunion. I am so excited! I need to run a couple times this week and get to the driving range a couple times as well before the tourney in Ottawa on Friday.
Ok I am getting too far ahead of myself, I will update this more later…….
