One More Sleep!!

Well, this is it! Today is our last day in our lovely big house. Tomorrow when I leave for work, I won't be coming back! I'm quite sad about it, if I'm honest. It really is beautiful here. But I am looking forward, not backward.

The house is empty apart from some big furniture and even Britney they budgie has been moved to the new house, thanks to my Dad and some good friends

Workwise, I'm settling into a new routine with all my eBay stuff being at the shop and things will fall into place quite quickly, I think.

 I can't wait! It's all starting to come together. Just got to knuckle down and get some solid work done for the next few months and things will move in the right direction. Txx

Saying Goodbye to Donny

Today I said goodbye to Donny. Yep, I sold ALL of my Donny and Osmonds memorabilia to my Os-friend. We packed it all up in a crate and got on a train to Blackpool to deliver it to her. Anyone who knows an Osmond fan will know that we tend to be a little obsessive over the boys so my friend probably already had alot of the stuff, but said she'd kindly pass her duplicates on to another friend of hers.

A few other things have been cleared out or moved this week too. All of the ebay stuff has been moved to the shop now so that I will get used to working in a small space. My new "office" is really just the back room of the shop and it's pretty tiny. I'm sure I'll soon get used to it! Our collection of Moorcroft pottery has been sold and is being collected tomorrow, the pool/dining table has sold and is going on Thursday. Our lovely house is slowly being stripped out. It's a good thing really, seeing it empty will make it easier to leave it. We have the keys for the new  house now and I am starting to look forward to it.

Everyone we tell about our plans seems really impressed and thinks it's a great idea. That really helps spur us on to make sure it happens as soon as possible! Txx
