THE SECOND POSTER FOR SUNDAY

Not this








More like this ...



... as I'm feeling really tired today.

It's really hot and I've been up since 4AM (watching the All Blacks beat Scotland). I've also been sorting and packing stuff for our imminent shift. I tell you - I'm over it but know that this is just the first in maybe a series of shifts until we find our ideal home in Wellington. I wish that we hadn't sold now.

Did I mention that it's hot? It's also muggy as we have had bouts of rain from showers to heavy all while the temperatures are in the mid to high 20s. Bummer!

Tomorrow the movers come to pack up everything that we haven't boxed along with the furniture.

On Tuesday they come back with the container truck to load and take everything away.

On Wednesday the cleaners come to do a thorough house clean (which hasn't stopped The Old Girl from cleaning everything in sight).

On Thursday I wait for confirmation of settlement (money in the bank) and will hand over the keys and head down south. As it will be likely the afternoon I doubt if I'll make it much past Cambridge before stopping. I might stop overnight there or in Rotorua. The Old Girl is flying to Wellington on Thursday morning as she has to be at work on Friday. I'll likely arrive in Wellington on Friday afternoon.

On Monday17th the moving company will deliver all our goods to Kiwi Self Storage in Newlands and, once it is all safely stowed away I'll be able to relax (don't do it, when you want to go to it).

I'm looking forward to next Tuesday.

Tuesday afternoon
I'm just beginning to see
Now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
