Upping sticks


I hope you had a lovely weekend (and are enjoying these last few hours of it)...

Ours has been spent packing boxes and ticking things off to-do lists, making those irritating (for us, not them) phone calls to notify all the different insurers/energy providers/authorities of our new address, and generally trying to make sure we don't forget anything important.

We collect the keys to our new place on Wednesday and move in on Thursday. There's still a lot to do.

Anyway, I may well not post on here until late in the week - assuming we'll be online by then, of course. But I will still be visiting my favourite blogs and reading about what everyone else has been up to. And, of course, I'll be jotting down my ideas for future posts. A notebook and pen will be kept about my person along with the other essentials (phone, camera, Tunnock's Teacakes). Oh, and Paracetamol.

I have cake to buy - the baking things are all boxed up - ready for our last morning at the local playgroup, and a bottle of something sparkling for that moment when everyone's gone and we lock the front door in our new home and collapse.

See you on the other side!

Sarah :)

    1. Thank you - and what do you know, the village has a very good fish and chip shop. Fish and chips and bubbly are one of my favourite combinations!

    1. Thanks, Annie! This gorgeous weather is certainly helping things - I'm neglecting my unpacking duties in favour of being outdoors but who cares? It'll rain soon enough.
      We love the new house - it's so peaceful.
