Now we have shifted...







Crikey...I get home from Spotlight to find my sister grinning like a cheshire cat - "I updated your blog for you" LOL. I'm with Janine - she needs to get her own one LOL.

So we are out of the old house. It's been cleaned to within an inch of it's life. Carpetes are shampooed. Skirting boards are sparkling. You get the gist. Into Donna's house. Milo has settled well, Tui like most cats takes a few days to come right again. Sorry kids, one more move to go yet. Hope Lyall and Donna find a house that we will all like - then we can move sooner rather than later.
So much stuff sitting in a storage locker. I want my toys back. Can you hear me stamping my feet LOL?! Hmm you know your back in your old street (Lyall and I lived in this street for eight years - two doors down from Mum and Donna - and yep they moved into the street after we did)anyway I digress - you know your back when the neighbours have just come over with some smoked fish for you and they have three lots, cos they are off to the other neighbours to give them some as well...

Roll on the retreat. It feels like months since I last picked up some paper. No I haven't brought any either. I am waiting for a Scrappin Patch package to arrive, but I've had the hard word put on me - there's enough stuff to move without me adding to it. Apparently. LOL.

Janine my friend, if I don't catch up with you over the net - then I hope you have the most fantastic birthday on the weekend. And really, I think you should stretch this one out LOL. Because really, the last week of being 39 I don't think you should have to cook, clean, work...and the first week of being forty, yeah, you shouldn't have to cook, clean, work. Well that's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

Phew! ... one step closer to the end ... moving is always hard work, and the stresses of putting stuff into storage is hard ... I feel for you ... Tui looks exactly like my sleeping beauty Pepsi!LOL

Have already told you that pizza boxes don't count! ROFL. Glad things went OK though and the animals are settled which would be a relief to you.

Family just about all settled ... these things take time buddy!!!

Hopefully it won't take Tui long to settle.

Just remember to take your car off auto pilot on the way home from work today ... you never know where you might end up ... ROFLMAO.

Yay, you're in! I hope the house hunting doesn't take too long ... I don't know how you can cope with your scrapping supplies packed away!!

REALLY looking forward to the retreat and seeing you again ... especially since you will be moving far, far away in the future :-( Sob, sob!

Viv said...

You poor thing! Fancy getting the hard word about buying more stuff! Gorgeous photos of your babies. Milo looks like he would be content anywhere!

Alison said...

Good to see everyone seems to have settled in okay.....hope it doesnt take long for you to find the perfect house for you all. How long can you cope with all your scrapbooking supplies packed away? It would drive me insane not to have it there for me to create whenever i wanted to.

Milo looks exhausted Trace, have you been making him carry bags?! Tui has the right idea, "wake me up when everything's settled!" LoL

Glad everything went ok with the move....I hope you are still getting your post until your 'strange' card arrives LoL

Hi Trace just playing post catch up after a busy few days.

So pleased to hear that the shift went well and everyone is settling in.

Fingers and toes crossed here that you find the house with your name on it soon.
