All Good Things Must End!!

I've enjoyed my last 3 years here in Edmonton. It was a difficult move for me at first, but once here I knew that this is where I was supposed to be for a number of reasons. I have developed lasting friendships; being close to family has been a blessing as I've enjoyed spending time with Kristi, Jared, and the boys; having Becky live with me for a short time; always having a way to provide for myself...working at the U of A as well as Banana Republic; and of course meeting my Prince Charming. I would not trade any of these things as they have only made me a better person and got me to where I am today!!

A number of different things have transpired over the last couple of weeks, one in which was probably my biggest stress and that was selling my condo. It was on the market for all of about 3 weeks and it finally SOLD!! It is such a relief to have over and done. Possession date is slated for June 15th and I couldn't be happier about the timing...everything is coming together and working out like clockwork. I really love my condo, but know that it is on to bigger and better things. I have a house in Hinton that Shane and I will make ours and I'm so looking forward to it...we have a beautiful view of the mountains from our front window and a great view of the foothills from the kitchen window.

With possession date being the 15th of June I will be working until this Friday at the University and then I'm done. I've enjoyed the people that I work with, but am so ready to be out of here. My job is one of the most boring jobs I have ever had...pays well, but so incredibly slow and not challenging at all. It will be nice to have some time to get packed and make last minute preparations for the wedding.
