We’ve moved house! Promised internet still hasn’t arrived! I’ve got a partial service through my laptop. Still no TV or PC connection!!
But I’m here!!
All is well (ish!)
12th Day of Moving House!!
It gets a little wearying lugging, putting up curtain poles, drilling holes, banging nails, putting up shelves, trying to find places for things, moving things around and generally ripping your old house to bits.
I’m knackered.
After multiple trips to charity shops and the tip we still seem to have just as much stuff here as we did at the beginning!
It’s not conducive to a calm mental state!
But then what is? In these days of Trump looming on the horizon, Oban the Putin lover, and Melei the fascist, Netanyahu, Hamas and religious extremism, global warming and mass extinctions, the world is looking a lot worse than it did twelve years ago,
I thin 9/11 changed things.
Still, we have a nice house and we’re not being bombed. Things are good! (I’ve just got to sort it all out!)
Off I go, humping book cases, books, CDs, vinyl and stuff – loads of stuff! It’ll all work out in the end!!
Day 6 of the house move!
We’ve been at it for days, lugging books, CDs and furniture, screwing, unscrewing, drilling, hammering and loading.
We’re downsizing.
We’ve got to fit a gallon into a pint pot.
Trips to the charity shops are daily. I think we’ve already funded the whole of cancer research and put up two hostels for the elderly.
We still seem to have half a house to move (and nowhere to put it)!!
It’ll all work out in dreamland. We’re just lucky to have this interim period!
Pretty frazzled though!!
Has life become crazily complicated – or is that just me?
We’re in the process of moving house. A nightmare thanks to Liz Truss!!
We now have two houses and a shed-load of debt and no money!!
We are gradually moving in but, more to the point, we are trying to sort out changing all the utilities. Nothing is straightforward – hours on the phone and crazy, complex deals. They try their best to screw you over.
Always on hold fifteenth in line then shunted to someone else. Nothing is simple. Passwords for everything then they text you new pins, confirmation and identity checks!!
So phone, gas, electric, TV, internet, council tax, water, removal people, solicitors and insurance has to be sorted for two houses for indeterminate times. A nightmare.
Is it just me getting old or is everything just much more complicated than it used to be??
Just wading through the complexities of different deals, penalties and deliveries is ridiculous!
Anybody fancy stepping in and sorting it all out for me?
