Moving


I went to Ikea last night and have purchased a bed. This was important. I shall hopefully put it together this afternoon. I’m going to leave at lunchtime today to collect the keys and see the place again. I am very excited. I can’t wait. New house! I do have some work on monday tho,…

Moving – an exercise in stress


I have not packed at all yet. I have 3 empty boxes, a crate and some plastic laundry sacks to pack into. I did see loads and loads of boxes outside someones house that they had put out for recycling and I was going to take them but they were all soggy 😦 I shall…

Food glorious food

And then panfried scallops, jacket potato and soya beans, topped with some sour cream. Lovely. Had huge salad first. MUST BE HEALTHY! and Hi…

Lists lists lists


Get boxes Start packing – probably at the end of the week. Must get boxes. Start reviewing what I’m going to need. Have massive internal debate over getting a tv. Tidy bedroom Somehow my lists are much smaller than they used to be. We had lovely snackies last night before dinner.
