Well, after weeks of stress, we finally exchanged contracts on the new house at around 4.30pm today! We will complete the purchase tomorrow. I've just about finished sorting out all our stuff in to piles of what's going in to storage and what's not and I'll start shifting boxes up to our temporary residence tomorrow. Unfortunately the removals/storage is not yet sorted; they'll be coming round on Thursday to quote, so it'll be next week before they can do the job. Fortunately (?) I have Thurs/Fri off work next week as Adam is going into hospital for a minor op, so I can travel back and be here when the movers come. It just means I won't be there when he goes in to hospital, which is not what I wanted, but I should be back in time to go and visit him when he comes round after, which is the most important bit.

I'm looking forward to finally set foot in our new house tomorrow, and will probably start ripping carpets up and may even get a paint brush out! Then, I'll be back to Leicestershire on Thursday to be here for the removals quotey person. Back to Cheshire on Friday to be in for delivery of the new broadband router. Back to Leicestershire (well, Derbyshire actually) for a crop on Saturday. And finally back to Cheshire on Saturday night/Sunday morning ready to start my new job on Monday!
