I'm about to move. Which means I'm packing. Of course, now that I'm up to my eye balls in boxes, and have to start working on the boring things (like bathroom shelves and laundry gear) I have the sudden urge to surprise you with an update. The first in over a month. Ta-da!
At 5pm on Wednesday, I'm getting in a car with a load of my stuff ready to speed off and over the hill to
The Estate. I will have my arms full with a month's worth of clothes, my wii, a giant home-made bag of (not home-made) Christmas presents and an explosive personality.
I'll live there for several weeks while the new flat is being finished, working there during the day and lapping up the benefits of living with the parents at night. Towards the middle of January, we'll come into town via the
apartment to pick up the rest of my gear and dump it in the bedroom of the new flat so I can stop paying rent here.
If the flat isn't ready by then, I'll continue living with the parents until it's done.
And if it's still not finished by the time I have to go back to work on the 18th, I'll be that grumpy girl on the commuter train from Masterton. You know, the one that leaves Masterton before 6am.
As things progress, I'll try and get some photos for y'all. I know how much you like to have a nosey into peoples' homes. Or, wait, is that just me?
Once the flat's done, and I'm all moved in, we'll do drinks or something. So keep an ear out for the invite!
