5 Days and Counting

Move out day is in 5 days. Fiiiive daaaayyyss. I didn't get as much packed as I was expecting to over the weekend (read: nothing packed) so I think it's going to be a long week. To be fair, last night I did sort out my underwear for the week and packed the surplus. So I guess I did do a little bit of packing!

Andrew and I may have fallen in love with a sofa, and I fell head over heels for a little square snuggle chair on saturday. They were in a store called Choice - this is basically a shop that sells Next castoffs at discount prices. This tends to mean that once something is gone, it's not going to be back in stock again. With that in mind, we totally bought them, our first bit of furniture bought together! I can't wait to arrange them in the house and sit on them!!

Now, I know that buying the sofa was a bit pre-emptive. Especially as this is a trial period in the house, however, we would have to buy a sofa at some point anyway soo...why not.

I have a To-Do list of sorts for this week, of all the things I can think of that I need to do before going, and the things I need to pack. Not entirely sure I'll get everything done, but I can give it a go!
