After the Fire

OK I will write a little more...
We spent the night of the fire... or what remained of the morning. Together on one couch sleeping comfortably. In the morning I went to Class (I was still in Real Estate School at this time and was about 30 minutes late!) That evening we stayed at Falyn's house... and we made a few calls to hotels etc trying to find a temporary place to stay. The next night we went the meeting at the community center where they told us that it would be more than a year to fix the building so we need to find a place to stay... That night (Friday the 16th) we found a furnished 2 bedroom condo on Banister road for $695 per week as a temporary solution. On Saturday I worked for a bit at Simons, came home with a dozen roses and Mailie started to cry (Nobody had ever bought her flowers before!) Iane, Mailies mother was scheduled to come visit for a week (yes I met her mother half a week into our relationship). She took an immediate likeing to me, we got along fantastic, We had tons of fun ate great etc.
We stayed in that appartment for 2 weeks and looked for another place to rent. We found a condo in Windsor Park (by chinook) very nice 2 bedroom for $1750/month (almost 3 times what we were paying at the Albert Park appartment!) We moved in that Friday (the 30th) slept on the floor with some sheets and then on the weekend had the movers bring in our stuff (Mailies stuff I had nothing!) And we were officially living together, still thinking we were dreaming but never wanting to wake up.
