Hello Livejournal, it's been a while.
I still read LJ daily, but must admit when I feel like posting something it tends to be on facebook these days, despite my initial view that facebook was a waste of time. Funny huh?
Just thought I'd post a little about life at the moment. Work is extremely busy, but am still enjoying it. I think I really suit being a Housing Officer and the role fits much better than my previous career in law. I feel I do some social good is housing those that need it, but also I'm pretty damn good at it. My colleagues seem to find the job stressful, but I don't get it. I guess I'm very organised and pretty efficient so I keep my paperwork up to date, whereas other seem to spend more time running around complaining about how much work they have, rather than actually doing it.
So, work is good, I get on with most people, though I'm beginning to feel that unless I start complaining more and pulling my hair out, complaining about how busy I am that I won't fit in fully *sighs*. Maybe I'll bring my LRPing to the fore and RP Stressed Eric or something?
In more recent news, we've made an offer on a house and it's been accepted. We're both over the moon, the house is pretty much exactly what we wanted, it's in a location we wanted and frankly its a bargain at the price we paid. Add to that, the couple we're buying off of are lovely and we get on really well with them, they're leaving us loads of stuff which will be useful. Their purchase has fallen through, so there may be a delay, but still looks good.
We have been unable to sell our flat, so we'll be renting it out, not something we're particularly overjoyed about. We've found a tenant, though whether he is prepared to suffer a delay we'll have to find out.
