It's a new week, and I am already tired! But I have had a long couple of weeks now, what with moving house twice!! We picked up the keys to the new place a week ago now. Signed all the scarey paperwork. Well, not scarey, as we are dealing with an agency, and not with a dodgy landlord!!
Early last week I caught up with Melissa and Ayesha. The three of us went to the theatre to see The Producers. The show was fantastic. Better than the movie, even though I remembered some of the lines. It was nice to catch up with the two girls. Melissa is going travelling for a while and Ayesha started a new job this week.
On Friday morning I had help from my friend Giulia from work. She and I have the same roster, which came in handy. We made three or four trips from Isa's house to the flat - one way it would be about 400/500 metres. Giulia and her luggage trolley were a big help in getting things moved!!
Friday afternoon/evening both Scott and I had doctor's appointments (nothing is wrong, just a check up for him and a prescription for me). We decided to drop in to the old house to see if there was any mail. We had contacted the guys we used to live with, but the response was "we will contact you". We decided to go around there anyway to see what happened. The guys were both there and let us in around the back of the house. This was because, as we saw as soon as we entered the house, that we saw why. They had completely looted the house. Turns out they had found a place in Canning Town, but it's completely empty. Considering that the landlord is not giving them any deposit back, they are taking everything they can from the house - including the kitchen cupboards!! It was going a little far I think, but still.
The weekend I worked. We kept Isa company on Friday night as her mum had had a stroke that day in Portugal and she was feeling a bit sad and lonely. We had pizza and watched a movie. Saturday night was the first night we spent at the new place.
There is still stuff everywhere in the new place. But hopefully by the end of the week we shall have it organised and everything in it's right place.
So there you have it. :-)
