Still Packing, Still Moving.

Things we have done:

• been to ikea and bought the little bits of furniture and rugs we need for the bigger space (twice in two days)
• taken a few loads of stuff to the new house.
• gotten the ball rolling on getting the home phone an broadband set up in the new house. (I seriously don't understand why it takes so many phone calls or so many days. Ho hum.)
• started to get the new living room into some sort of order

Things we still have to do:

• finish packing an moving
• clean up Old Flat-surfaces, walls windows and possibly the carpet?
• Put New House together. No excuses. No living half unpacked for months. 
• makes plans and budget for how to deal with New garden

If only it were so simple....

I promise all the moving grumbling will be done with soon,

Planning and to do lists

Class sign ups are on Monday. MONDAY. Where has this summer gone? The weather has been horrendous! I feel like I got nothing done. Oh woe is me!

I've spent most of the week unpacking. Dad and A came up on Sunday with our furniture and crockery out of storage because they are just lovely.

Dad discovered Nerf.

They then quite wisely left me to deal with it all.

There really was a lot of stuff.

Actually there was loads of stuff.

I got fancy new wellies.

They are from the kid's department in Next, but the do them up to a ladies size 7! Super comfy and less than 20 quid. You can't really argue with that.

But all this unpacking is distracting me from the hellish weather and the fact that classes start NEXT WEEK!

I need to start digging out my note books, pens and bento stuff. Bento lunches are brilliant for long days in the library.

Now back to the unpacking!

Take care, Minnie xoxo

Getting on with life and musings on being a house frau

So dealing with the crazy, which isn't really all that crazy just a common or garden panic disorder which sucks. I'm really sociable but too many people or just a few choice idiots and I'm a wobbly heap in the corner squeaking for tea.  Sigh.

But I've been coming on leaps and bounds! I have a job, and I only come across as slightly mad, I have friends! Also of the good. I'm sorting out uni, life and making grand plans regards to yon crafts. I've even got a hold on the house work which is novel.

We have birds nesting in the chimneys, a cat who guards the washing line and the books are slowly taking over the house.

Anyway I'm off to make another pot of tea (I'm trying to cut down on my ridiculous coffee consumption),

take care, Minnie x x

Aftermath

Saturday night was our Yule gathering, we had lots of people round and Bloke cooked enough food to feed an army. There was banter, cake and much running three doors down to meet the new kittens.

Yesterday we were feeling pretty delicate, we spent the day curled up on the sofa doing not very much. It was bliss, Sunday is the one day we keep free. We usually make a point to do something with our day, but yesterday was lovely.

Alas I now have a massive pile of house work to deal with. Ah well Christmas shopping tomorrow!

Love love xoxo
