Packing, boxes everywhere

Comment Published at 20:5920:592 comments2 comments32 Visits32 VisitsReport
Well I went in to homeswest Friday and they gave me my new address. I haven't got the keys for another week at least as they are putting on security screens and doing a little work on it. Now I still have to work out all my income details and give to them as me and my son are working but whatever the outcome I will be out of here. My rent will go up a bit but it is better then where I am believe me. These are being bulldozed down so I get all the bond back no matter what and they are paying my moving expenses so this is a great bonus. I am so happy as living in slum conditions really gets you down. I went over to a friends for dinner last night and I said now I am moving I will invite them over one day. I haven't had people over here for a long time.

So this weekend I have done quite a bit of packing. It is good to go through. It is amazing what you accumulate over 4 years. I am finding stuff I forgot I had and have filled the bin. I should be able to take heaps to the salvos too. Good I work with kids as all the books and videos and craft stuff I have found that we can use! I just found 2 brand new packs of christmas cards in a draw. Just in time. May save me some money this cleaning up. The amount of things that you find as you have gone out to buy another one as you can't find the last on. Heaps of stationary and band-aids etc. Anyway the boys are excited. They have packed there rooms up already.

Re: Packing, boxes everywhere

It is exciting moving to a new place and a better place at that.  Hope you have good neighbours! 

As for your unwanted stuff do you know of the website freecycle Join for free and post your unwanted stuff and people will come and collect it.  Not bad if you have alot of stuff or you don't have time to go to the salvos.

Good luck with the move   Take care - Angie
