Only 2 Weeks To Go

Well, there is now just under 2 weeks to go before I move. So far everything seems to be running smoothly. We have organised the couches, sofa bed, and electrical (fridge, diswasher, washing machine ect.) to be delivered the day after handover. To pick up the remaining bulky items (dining setting/entertainment unit/bedroom suite) we are looking at hiring the Thrifty moving van hopefully on the Thursday.

The Friday before the move (which is on a Tuesday) Sean has to go into hospital to have all 4 of his wisdom teeth removed, as they have become impacted and have been causing him some pain. The upside of this is he may still be drugged up during the move - which will prevent him becoming a total stress head.

Most of our things are now packed, apart from what we need for general day to day living. As Sean most likely won't be well next weekend, we are going to pack as much as what is left this weekend as we can, and prepare which boxes we are going to take with us to survive night one in the house.

The hot water system and oven are yet to be installed in the house (it will have to be done by the end of the week as final inspection is on Tuesday). All of our neighbours have gone with the standard polished concrete flooring option, so this week they have had the resin finish put on their flooring. I think it looks absolutely horrible and am so happy we upgraded to the floorboards.

Anyway better go. I will try and get another post in just before the move, then it may go quiet for a while, as I won't have Internet access at home straight away, and I am taking 2 weeks of work for the move (I will be on leave from 2pm Tuesday Feb 27 and will return to work on Tuesday March 13).
