Okay, we have now passed the 'cooling off' period, and the house is officially listed as UNDER CONTRACT! Had a mini freak out when the bank would not let the money out of the account when we wanted it (had to wait 31 days!), but it's been sorted out and we have a new date for closure. Thankfully there were no existing plans in place in regards to movers, and we can now arrange them - as well as organize the other million and one details associated with moving - accordingly.
Can't wait to get into this home and finally set up my own library and sewing room!
I am already falling into the trap of mentally planting the gardens, and arranging the furniture, and I know I shouldn't do this until I get the keys in my hands as anything could go wrong in the next couple of weeks. But, my fingers are crossed oh, so tightly because I think this house is just what I am looking for - and I want to be moved in by this time next month!
In the meantime, there is not much happening on the reading front. I will try to get to my August Miss Marple, The Mirror Crack'd, read, but realistically that will probably be the only book I consume this month as trying to organize and sort through all the stuff to pack, as well as cleaning and doing the usual household chores, is really kicking my butt at the moment. My poor wrists (and now my back) are very sore at the moment, pins and needles all through it, which means that I'm only going to do a few small jobs today. No point in pushing it and being totally out of commission.
Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well. I'll update my move as it gets closer.
Until next time,
