Yep! That's right! After No hot water the first week, then only hot water the second week and the invasion of the flying ants, we are moving...Not because we want to...nope, because the home we are living in is being repossessed from the owner by the bank! The only thing I have to say at this point is, "Why not?" Everything else that could have possibly went wrong on this entire move has so why not throw in one more thing?! Oh yeah, did I mention that TODAY we got the call that our stuff from the U.S. is FINALLY in England and they want to deliver it on Tuesday?!
So we are on the hunt for yet another house in the UK, but this time there is nothing that is furnished available so it looks like we have to hit up Ikea for the 5 hundredth time since we have been here, I mean I love Ikea, I don't think I have met anyone who wouldn't like to play an awesome game of "hide-and-seek" in there (yep, you just added that to your bucket list didn't you!) but spending money on furniture that we are only going to use for 2 years, well that is not something that excites me!
However, we did find this AMAZING house less than 10 minutes away from where we are at, the kitchen is HUGE and the layout is perfect for what we need, its even more in the "country" so to speak, but the guy that owns it not only wants a bit more than we want to spend on rent and he may be selling the place to a couple from Canada. We will find out by the end of tonight if it is ours or not. So, the waiting game continues.
In the meantime, we are exploring the area a bit more, Sunday we went to the Chester Racecourse and watched some horse races. Something I never thought I would enjoy but it was quite nice! We did bet on a few horses and AL won the most out of the day! She was so proud that her horse, Party Ruler, won the race she wouldn't stop talking about it all night! I do want to go back there sometime without the kids, get all dressed up and sit in the expensive seats, fascinator and all! Until then we will be looking for a new place to live and furniture to fill that place up with.
Rant over,
Abbey
