Right, I have:
* Re-scheduled moving day to this Sunday and recruited new helpers after my originals became unavailable.
* Finalised rent payments for the old place and set them up for the new place (and am seriously disgruntled at having to use RentPay and pay an extra $3 a month for the privilege).
* Sold enough stuff to cover about half the expected insurance bill for last Friday's little reversing fail - go Gumtree and DMF!
* Bought a ticket to go see freaking KODO (and TaikOz) play in Melbourne in September with my taiko group (I don't know if I'll have a job or where I'll be living, but damn it I'm not missing Kodo!).
* A bubbling pot of home-grown tomatoes reducing on the stove, to be bottled as tomato puree and taken to the new house.
* Packed most everything except the kitchen things.
* Taken on way too many things to get done before moving!
Bleh, still very tired* and rather snotty, but no rest for the over-committed.
Somewhere in Melbourne, February.
Meanwhile, the comedy of fails continues. Australia Post sent through my confirmation of mail redirection today, except they've mis-spelt my name when they've entered my details. Only way to fix it is to go into a post office in person and fill out yet another form.
Also: no internet at the new house for at least a month, most likely longer. Guess I'm getting a cheapy pre-paid mobile modem for the foreseeable future. *le sigh*
Edit: Makin' preserves, over at the Shape of Things to Come.
Can I sleep now please?
*Housemate's comings and goings are still doing horrible things to my sleep, and while earplugs do reduce the disturbance I end up waking up later to take the damn things out, so there's really no net gain. Last night he came in at 12:30 am, then left again at 4:30 this morning, so neither of us got much sleep. I cannot wait to get out of here - so bummed moving had to be delayed a week!
