  1. Hold my name as cobwebs do;
    I must take my leave of you.
    Here I turn and say goodbye
    Blessed with one last copper sky

  4. Packing Frenzy leaves no room for sensible eating! Today I ate sausages and lamingtons, both chosen because I needed to clear out the small freezer in order to defrost it. Tomorrow is looking like bacon and dumplings. #movinghouse

  6. All stuff moved from A to B with calm help from @dtl and two great non- English guys with a van.

    Pros:
    - new landlord seems a decent bloke. Even offered to help with the move
    - Three different neighbours said they were sad to see me leave the street and wished me well
    - the new studio flat is a perfect rectangle which means I have a variety of layouts available to me
    - nothing broke

  11. We're #MovingHouse tomorrow! The contents of my kitchen are packed except for essential tea-making paraphenalia. #Tea has punctuated my day of packing & cleaning with deliciousness & a chance to sit down.

  16. Evening Twters!

    Sofa and fridge/freezer in today. Little creature comforts from Vinted arrived. Still need a table to eat from, and a bedside table, and I want to get a day-bed for the spare room instead of the put-you-up I have in there now but finances will take time to recover for that!

    Tonight, an easy oven-curry, naan, and a glass of fizz out of my very posh wine glasses that I've never used in the 4 years I've had them because they're all that's unpacked so far!

    Bliss. 😘

  29. This morning we moved more than 20 of my large glazed #paintings into storage with a dear friend in #Eynsham, #Oxfordshire, close to our #NewHome - into which we move in just TWO weeks.

    Thank goodness for my daughter-in-law & her vintage VW #campervan. 🙏 They'd never all fit in our Mini!

  42. Dilemma. You have recently moved to a new city and you have a cat. You would like to go away on holiday for a week.

    You used to have trustworthy neighbours who would look after the cat.

    We may have some of those here too, but we haven't found them yet.

    Which boils down: no holiday this year. A pity, but I wouldn't dream of leaving our Geisha with people I don't trust 100%

  47. ok, today was an effing long day. But the pods are loaded (to the brim!) with all my crap.

    And I do mean "crap". I feel like I have way too much stuff. And I jettisoned a ton of things I was already feeling marginal about and had decided to bring and deal with on the other side, but when I discovered we were in danger of going to 3 boxes, not 2... hell no! (it'd be another $1K at least).

    I do wish I had dealt with it better in advance and freecycled some of the stuff that I (sadly) had to end up junking. But my car was already loaded and the apartment was all packed and I needed to start my journey (tomorrow a.m.)

    But fuuuuuuck this was a loooong (and crazy hot and humid) day.

  52. I think there is too much faff in this country. I moved home a while back and just the hassle of having to change my address on everything is ridiculous.

    Change your driving licence address or you might be fined

    Update the vehicle logbook

    Electoral register

    Doctors

    Banking

    Online accounts

    Ridiculous, honestly I think it's time to stop needing to give an address for this stuff. I don't even want an address 😭 I'd rather just get a little campervan or a boat 🤣

  54. last time I moved to California (~11 years ago) I had a couple of suitcases and maybe half a dozen boxes.

    At the moment I have waaay too much stuff. I need to be ruthless about donating things before the move date arrives.

  56. The estate agent closes in 27 minutes and we've still not heard about the house we applied for.

    ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHH (sorry screen-readers. I am frustrated and twitchy).

    #RentalHousing #MovingHouse #Stress

  57. And that's more stuff offloaded and another 40 or so empty boxes collected #MovingHouse

  58. So, about two weeks left before we're moving. Most stuff is already in boxes, although there's still some work to be done there. Christmas decorations are extremely limited this year, and I spent part of Christmas day hanging lamps.
    Good thing we could spend last weekend with my in-laws, away from the boxes for a few days.

    Mind you, I'm not complaining, the new house is great, and I look forward to getting to grips with the new surroundings and city, although slightly less to the longer commute.
