One month on...
Well, a quick few minutes down the library has given me time to make a quick post! So hello again everyone.
I thought it would be instructive for everyone for me to set out my blog rules, just so you know where I come from.
No names without their permission; nothing that might identify any member of my extended family and nothing that might identify the street in which I live. If I choose not to mention an event or happening, then that's MY choice as a blogger. OK? So now you all know. Apart from that, anything goes, I guess.
Its been a shock, the way things have been in the new house. After the tenant left, there's been much to sort out, both in the house (by ourselves) and out of the house (very capably dealt with by Alicia's family (and if they read this, I'm so very grateful for all you've done)).
I've forgotten what a carpet is, and the place can be a bit of a building site at times, but there's a three year plan in Alicia's mind to get it into the kind of house we want. At the moment, the bathroom is 80% finished with the walls now replastered, the suite just has to be installed, and the place retiled last of all. Then the place has to rewired before we can get the main bedroom replastered and decorated, once that's done, then that's it for the coming year. Next year, the rest of the house will get sorted, and the following year it's the garden! So its all go.
All I need to do is now find work, and the world is fine and dandy, but its not at the moment cos of that. Its not as easy to find that job as I thought so I'd better go and do that now. So I'll catch you soon. But here's a little thought from our Chinese friends, "Walk through life, don't run."
