Selina’s craft world

Hope anyone of you blog reader missed me. I am sorry to all friends I did not email yet and possibly won’t get to until the new year. Right now, we have no internet access at our apartment, Andy needed to go to the old apartment to work. Now that we’re at my parents I am using their pc, but my emails are on my laptop at home + I am just not in the mood to do a lot with their pc.

Wednesday was the big move. Got up at 6, got ready, drove to Karlsruhe and started packing like crazy. We had to be done before the truck came with the two guys meeting us. It was a pain in the ####, but we made it. My aunt cleaned and put things in the new kitchen. My cousin was carrying stuff into the new apartment. Andy, mom and me were packing running around and stuff. I drove out to store to buy the breakfast, by the time I got back the moving crew was there and already put the washing machine in the basement. They started with the closet in the hallway. We ate and then worked. After a while my mom and I left to drive my aunt to the station. We also had to buy paint, fly gitter and things. When we got back, they were just building the living room closet which did not fit were it was supposed to, but on another spot. Minwhile Andy put the table together and tried the chairs. After another little food time, we headed to the last few things. At 3PM or so, we finally got done with everything we wanted and then could stop for the day.

Thursday was full of work again. I started wasking our clothes with the new cool washing machine, while putting things away and all. Fun fun. After Andy finsihed work, we headed to the store again to buy plastic for the floor and some other pain things. Then - at home - we started painting. What a pain. It takes forever to tape important things, then to paint. I looked all white by the time we were done with room number one.

Today was the same again: cleaning some, washing lots, painting the other room, cleaning some more, eating, driving around. I am so done with all this, I can tell you. My arms are useless, my hands are dry and itchy, I hurt and tired. And there’s still so much to do

As for good news, we got the hardware needed for our DSL today. Now only waiting to get the passwords etc. Hope it’s coming any day now as they said it’d be usable on the 2nd Jan …
