Packing Up!

Packing up a place you've lived in for 4 years is NO fun!! I cannot believe the amount of garbage I have collected since living here! Well actually yes I can believe because I can see it ALL!!!

We've been so lucky today that we've had one of our Home Teachers and another church member come over today to give us a hand to get rid of all the rubbish that was accumulated outside. Some of it was from when Mark & Narelle were living here when we first moved in, a bit was mine and the rest was junk that Katie sent over with Maitland when Mark moved back here at the beginning of the year. Thankfully they were able to get rid of 98% of it in the trailer and the car. I must thank them again when we see them tomorrow.

Yesterday after Mark dropped me off at the Primary School he went to get some boxes so that we could start packing. Then today when I went to food bank I collected some more. I've made a good start at packing up. At least ALL the videos are done. I swear I have enough to start my own video library and loan them out!! I'm thinking we really need to get them onto DVD so they don't take up as much space!!
I have them all stacked up behind me at the computer. I'm waiting for Mark to get back so that he can sort out his room which we are using to put all the stuff we've already boxed.

We still haven't told the caravan park owners we're moving. I don't think we need to until after the paperwork is done by the Housing Officer. There's no point having Dennis come over in a grumpy mood telling us EXACTLY what he wants cleaned & fixed up before we leave. However I'm think I've paid enough rent here that he can jolly well clean it up& fix it up himself!!

I cannot wait to get out of this place and into my OWN home!! The little dude and I were talking about how we can get a pet cat! I have been dying to have a cat since I wasn't able to bring my Sabre with me when we moved here. Mark said that it will need to be an indoor cat but that is fine with me! I don't mind at all!
In the car on the way to food bank the little dude and I were going through some names for our new cat! He wants a girl btw. So we were messing around with some names Cleo, Chocolate but the name I loved the most was Coffee! That way when I want the cat I can call out 'Coffee, where are you?' and people will think I want a drink of coffee or just look at me strangely! I thought it was a good name even if no one else does lol

I suppose I should think about packing a bit more.... or not ...
