General life update
Sep. 28th, 2006 10:51 amToday is the last day before I go back to college. It's also two more weeks until the lease on 3QoD is up, and it's an odd feeling. I feel right now like I'm standing at the edge of the pool waiting to jump, and I've got all this apprehension just sitting in my stomach.
Getting New House sorted has so far been reasonably tricksy, mostly due to the inability of utillity providers to turn up when they say they will. So far I've been stood up once by the electricity people (which means we're still stuck with an electric key card meter), once by the BT people (who are now coming back on Tuesday) and this morning by the technician from Sky, who called in sick at 9.30 am. Decorating is also proving a slow process, as is getting the building work sorted.
I'm beginning to feel a little bit tense. I feel like I'm not being organised enough, not getting enough sorted. I'm feeling a bit nervous about the amount of wallpapering I need to do, and I really do need to get down to B&Q next week. So, if you see me about, do remind me.
This really is the end of an era, and the beginning of a new one. I'm a home owner again, and I own somewhere jointly with my boyfriend which is a level of commitment I've never had before. I've got another two years in which I'm definitely tied to one place, and I think I've got some long term plans as well. Stability/stasis...good/bad...I'm nervous and excited and a little bit afraid. It'll all be good in the end, right?

Good luck, though.
