finally, settlement has been completed, keys collected, and got in contact with some painters, and was informed that the painting will be completed by Friday. We have decided to go with Dulux colour Chintz Quarter, brown based, alot of the painters recommended a colour called Hog Bristle, but we decided to try this color instead, so hopefully it will turn out ok... we will find out on Sat :)
water has been organised, electricity and gas through Energy Australia, and broadband which has yet to be organised will be through Optus... went furniture shopping on the weekend, spent alot of money and exceeded my credit card limit, crap... organised carpet cleaning to happen on 28 Aug, which means the cleaning has to be finished by then... and after that, it would be a matter of waiting for the furniture to be delivered... we still have to buy a book shelf, phone, and possibly a lounge set... and of course, the other bits and pieces like cutlery, pots and pans...I am going to give myself a pat on the back becos I pretty much did most things myself, yes I did get some help from uncle and other people here and there, but I was the one chasing up stuff most of the time... from looking for a place, to looking for a conveyancer, to completing paperwork, to sorting out the finances, to looking for painters, to buying furniture... and it's still ongoing atm...
don't think auntie is that happy about us moving, which I don't understand, bcos it means that there is less 2 people to feed and do stuff... and it's not like it was a sudden decision... anyway, nothing very much I can do at this stage...
completed watching this other korean drama called can love become money, it was alright, it only got interesting towards the end actually... did not like the female lead... now rewatching some shows, cos no other nice shows to watch atm, still ongoing...
work-wise, we are still busy, not that the workload has increased but more the fact that we are so short of staff... and just the other day, I was saying I have been in Aged care for almost a year now, and have yet to do a guardianship report, and I must have jinxed myself, because now I have 2 reports and potentially another one on the way... and Collette's due to return next week, personally, I prefer Deanna, cos from previous experience working with Collette, she is not the most organised person... and you really have to keep chasing her to do things... so if Collette really does come back next week, I will be stuck with her for the next 2 months...
looking forward to this weekend! I just have to get through this week first :(
