We found a flat, we signed the lease, we have the keys! A lot of happy dancing has been done!

Now it’s down to the nitty gritty of actually moving, painting and cleaning the new place, packing up the old place (though hopefully not painting), figuring out which furniture will fit in the new place and which won’t, buying more fixtures and furniture (not the kitchen thankfully, but EVERYTHING else), showing our old place, dealing with surly removals guys, unpacking and everything in-between. It’s going to be a bit busy for the next few weeks, and I cannot wait for it all to be over.

The first time we moved we had a lot less ‘stuff’

I don’t enjoy moving, the organisation part, yes, but the actually grind and annoyances? No and having to move for the sixth time in 3.5 years? Urgh hopefully this one will stick.

It’s all for a better future,  and I must develop a mantra along those lines.
