Moved Away!

Wednesday 15 September 2010 at 8:01 pm

So it’s stopped being talk, We finally upped sticks and moved Northward to the Isle of Skye like we’ve been talking/dreaming about for the past 8 years or so.

Moving home is certainly stressful, and I’ll be completely and utterly honest. We were so not prepared for the amount of work that's involved. We kept thinking we were finished packing, only to find about 10 bags worth of items still to be packed. Thanks to some family help though we managed to get mostly done, We somehow forgot a few items and didn’t have time to put others outside for the trash, But we did make it to the island. And we’re got G settled and looking to get him into a school as soon as possible.

Was a nice drive up, and the views from the house… well lets just say Google Earth/Streetview does NOT do it justice at all.

On a personal level, I’ve noticed the move as actually did good things for me. Not really been here long, but for the past week or so I've had less problems with my throat that normal. So that's been a bonus!

Struggling.

Time since the last entry has been tough, We had a weekend of hell with the neighbours.  Thankfully by Sunday it had calmed down but still by Sunday i was exhausted and also coming down with a bout of Man-Flu. So yea it continued like that till… well till yesterday when i finally got a full night’s sleep.

Been considering starting to actually just post here when the neighbours start up, Public announcement and all that. Not that anyone local needs that, the noise level from them does it just fine. But it’ll let me keep note, Don’t know yet, watch this space!

Anyway, I’ve had this assessment sitting on my desk for weeks and did plan on using this week to start and finish it. But i just can’t seem to focus on it and its due on Monday. So I’ll have to be forcing myself into it over the weekend, praying that the neighbours actually give us a quiet weekend this week. But for today I’m just going to relax with some mindless and pointless programming, No goals just start up VS and see what occurs. Hopefully energise me enough to get stuck into the assessment… hopefully.
