Deadline looming

Two months ago we committed to leaving our rental at the end of July, which seemed like a good idea at the time. However with less than a month to go it’s all looking very dodgy.

There is still a mountain of stuff to finish before moving in, and just to make matters even more pressured we have arranged a one year anniversary party at the house (end of July) and four of my relatives are coming over to stay at the beginning of August.

There are no kitchen walls, let alone a kitchen, no bathrooms (not even a toilet fitted yet), limited electrics – just one socket for everything, plasterboard needs taping and jointing plsu, plus, plus…

Time is very tight just to do the jobs to get it habitable, not counting the time required to buy kitchens, furniture etc.

I think the next three weeks are going to be hectic with some very long days (and nights).
