Looking forward to the new house

Just feels like we are on a roller coaster and can't get off at the moment.
We took Tot out and then had to dash over to meet the agent at the new house to measure for furniture. I love the views and I am sure I will get used to the house which is old with beams and old fashioned light fittings but never mind.
We then went for coffee and met up with Bronwyn before going back home and picking Heather up. We then went to give the cheque to the lady for the furniture we bough yesterday. Our cards have a limit on them and so we could not pay for all the furniture so had to go back today with a cheque. Strange really as I always carried my cheque book around in UK now I just have my debit card and that is usually enough. Well it is all paid for now and delivery arranged.
We then went to look at kettles and kitchen things we might need. We ended up with a wooden patio set and a food processor!!
We were by now very hungry and so went for lunch and had a very nice steak sandwich but I really should have asked for it with no chips as I could not resist them!
It was then off to another shop to look at TVs but we didn't buy one as it would not fit in the car and Jon is going to arrange with Mike to collect some things once we have the key.
Finally we got back about 3.30. I went across to Alison's to giver her birthday card but I had missed her birthday, it was Thursday and I had in my head 30th. Never mind she liked her card and we arranged to meet on Wednesday for the Breast Cancer Walk.
We had a cup of tea and Heather and I watched some Neighbours and Jon washed the car. We need to catch up with TV as we will have to leave the Sky box so need to watch my episodes of Downton Abbey.
Heather and I finally got motivated and I started to clear out cupboards and she sorted things to go back to UK so we did quite well in the end.
I cooked rack of lamb for dinner which was very nice.

Beautiful day 21 degrees
