I am not sure how long my internet connection is going to last. My dongle is working, which is very exciting, but I think, its due to run out of money tonight, and we can’t afford to put more on till Thursday, something to do with food being more important than my internet.
However, we are in, it took 15 hours and about 7 trips in the van, when I have proper internet back, I will post the photos of my lounge and kitchen, with all the boxes in it.
As, it stands, I have unpacked monkeys room and put his bed up, the bathroom, the kitchen and most of the lounge. Tomorrow, I am doing our bedroom and that will be the unpacking done. I have a massive list of things to buy for the house, the flat didn’t come with curtains, one set of curtains fit two windows, but none of our others do, we also don’t seem to have curtain poles, I am hoping to come across them though. My partner has about 4 boxes to go through, which might get larger as I start going through the bedroom.
My partner, bless his heart, did most of the heavy lifting yesterday, cooked dinner, put monkey to bed, then got up this morning, went to work and did a ten hour shift. I may allow him a lie in on his next day off.
We are both exhausted, unable to walk, if I forgot to mention, we went from a first floor flat, to a second floor flat, so we had to get everything down the stairs, then up 27 stairs.
At some point, I am going to have to decorate, but that can wait, till we are settled, otherwise I am pretty pleased with us, we did a fab job, monkey is very excited about being settled and having his own room, he went to bed very happy. Especially because we kept finding lego in various boxes.
I have been running on adreline for the last 2 days, yesterday I did the move, not having slept, so hopefully, I am going to balance out, but I can say I am going to sleep well tonight, last night I was on the sofa and kept waking up, monkey was in ours because we hadn’t made his bed.
Good to hear you’re moved into somewhere better. I hope this means things are getting better for you 😀

Its going to be worse, when they try and shove me into universal credit, its why it was so important I moved before November as chances were, I would be shifted to it, while I think its a good idea on paper, it really is a shit reality

They wanted to get it out as fast as possible and didn’t check what might happen, now they are trying to cover up their arse as it goes wrong. But then again this is the party that said they could live off £53 a week

Well I know, that’s a totally unrealistic figure. At least they seem to be recognising that it’s not going well. They just need to sort out the mess.

I dont think they are sorting it out, I think they are burying their head in the sand about how it is effecting people and they can no longer keep claiming, its all about those scourging off the system, like they use to, as you have working families now using food banks and going without.

I hope they are going to reverse it, May resigns, the conservative party falls and some new party who represents the majority of the working public comes in.

No I agree, but there has to be something or someone who can balance it all, while I get you cant please everyone, you should be able to please some of the working people. At the moment, all I can see is both remainers and leavers are just not happy, and that is only at Brexit, god knows what everyone thinks of what else is going on in the country
