Missed me?

Well, I finally moved on 29th June! Yay!!! Spent 3 weeks with no telly, 3 and 1/2 weeks with no pc, and still have no (plumbed in) washing machine! Other than that, we are pretty much up and running :-) Still have lots of bits to do, but more than sorted really. Pictures will be posted soon!

As you can imagine, with no pc access I am just so behind in the world of electronic communications. My main email inbox (which is used for freecycle!), currently has 1674 emails waiting to be deleted! Most of them will be deletable, but still need to check nothing important in there. I dare not even check my google account to see how many posts you bloggers have managed in the last 4-6weeks!

So, just thought I'd pop in and say hello. Not much else been going on but moving I'm afraid, but I'll have to think back and update properly. Alas, for now... ciao!

Close call

Just a quickie to say thank you all for your support and kind words. I have been so stressed that I haven't even being on the pc!

Anyway, you will all be delighted (though not as much as me though!) to know that I FINALLY exchanged and completed on Tuesday, the last day of my mortgage offer!!!

Will be back to check in soon, I'm off to paint... :-)

Maybe not

Well exchange didn't happen! Mortgage lenders suddenly came up with a shopping list of near impossible demands, and at this point (considering my mortgage offer runs out on Tues!) it looks like the whole thing is going Pete Tong.

I'm more than a little frustrated, and a few tears have been shed!

Twice lucky...?

For the second time this week I have been told exchange will be tomorrow! Fingers crossed...!

Rotten luck

6 sleeps before X's 8th birthday, and corresponding party, it appears she may be chicken pox riddled. Again!

Why I love...

...JRTC!

Another classic arrived in my inbox today. I think it speaks for itself...

"I know many people in the world live in worse conditions than me, I know many people in the world have less money than me, I know many people in the world suffer from illnesses worse than me... but I bet theres no one else in the world that gets an email from their mum and the first line starts....

Hi
Today I woke up with thrush.....


I do think that this may be the one thing I am missing out on by not having kids.... sharing my thrush stories in later life. I suppose I should be thankful that we weren't in the middle of Marks and Spencer as I still never got over the shock of that announcement..."

Signs

It suddenly occurred to me the other day that when the eternally lengthy move finally takes place, my postcode will go from...

*** *BJ (yes, I have had the comments!)

to...

*** *GF

A sign of changes to come...?
