Moved House
We moved into our new flat last Monday (we were first time buyers so now owe stupid amounts of money) after a last minute packing frenzy. I started packing a week early so not sure how so much ended up being last minute as I have about 30-40 boxes packed... The move itself went fine and the new place is lovely. I took a week off work and spent most of it painting as it was a bit old ladyish. I have finished two rooms now and will do two more later in the year (done front room and spare room, got the study and our bedroom to do later on). I had to do it quickly so the paint could dry and we could get the kitties back from my parents-in-law. I haven't done any painting before and it was really fun, very relaxing for the most part. I have also put together our new double bed and various other bits of furniture. All we really need now is a couple of sofas, a kitchen bin, some cutlery and a new set of plates.

The cats came back Sunday night (the gloss I did on Saturday took ages to dry) and spent an evening being confused and exploring. Both seem to have settled in now though, bless them they are very good and adaptable. We tried to cat proof the stairs to stop them running out the front door when we open it (they are indoor moggies), but have not succeeded so far. They are being good though so far...

I have a ton of work to catch up on this week as my targets for the year end this month and I want a nice bit of commission. I am slow close I can almost feel the money... Going to see Sean Hughes on Wednesday do his comedy which I am really looking forward to and then Incubus on Sunday which was postponed from April. I have wanted to see them live for years so am really looking forward to it.
