Howdy all,
How is everyone going? I have had a very busy weekend! We needed to find a place to live and I also needed a car. I was determined to find both by Saturdays. On Friday night we started looking at apartments. The first one we went to was in a really dodgy part of town. We knocked on the door and the guy came out of the most filthy looking flat Ever. He had most of his front teeth missing and was smoking a cigarette the whole time. He took us up a filthy stairwell all the while reassuring us that this will al be cleaned up. It reminded me of one of those movies where the police are walking up o the really bad place where the dead body is. When we got to “our” apartment there was graffiti on the door. As the door opened you could see this GIANT hole in the wall. Suffice to say we did not take that one.
On Saturday we went to look at a place in a very area. It is a big old white house that has been converted into a number of different apartments. It is close to the centre of the city but far enough away from the bad part of town. The one we looked at was on the 3rd (top) floor. It had slanted roofs and was nice and clean. It has a balcony and everything. We applied for this one. We are pretty sure we have it. The lady just has to reference check and we’ll see what happens from there! It should be good.
I also bought a car. It is not a heap thought it was fairly cheap. It is a 1994 Hyandai Excel. 145000KM, White, manual, very neat and clean inside. A bit ratty looking on the outside. I went through dads checklist he gave me and it passed everything. I should get it in a few days.
I am STILL looking for a job. It is getting a little frustrating. I would dearly just love to work checkout at a supermarket. I need a job by the beginning of febuary AT THE LATEST.
I got Melissas card and Helens gift on Sunday. Thank you both very much. Helen we both liked the necklaces. I opened it up in front of Jane Anns 2 year old nephew (who was helping to unwrap). One of the bracelets fell out. He picked it up and I said “Susans bracelet.” He said “No, Davids”. He found the other two in the bag and spent the rest of the day wearing three braclets on his left hand. It was very cute. I got them back off him though, when his back was turned. Ha Ha Ha hahahahahahaha
Anyway, This will be a big week because we both have to find stuff (furniture and that) Cos neither of us has ANYTHING! Wish us luck.
Hope you are all well and enjoying summertime.
Don't consider that people are going overboard vying for my attention. The squecky wheel gets the grease.
