Moving house

Morning folks, have not got to posting much lately as I am in the throws of moving house, in 4 weeks I will be gone from here after two really nice years here. Daughter has moved out so I want and need a smaller place. All my possessions from last house is in storage and I want it all back now and find some apartment to settle in. Which by the way is proving quite difficult,can get some of the things on my list but not all. I really need gas heating much cheaper than oil, would like a parking space not always possible, and in a quiet area within my budget, I guess I do not want much lol. So at this stage although I am packing, I have not found a new nest yet. Keep me in your thoughts folks

Re: Moving house

I guess you'll have some serious downsizing to do with all your possessions, good luck with that, have had to do quite a bit of that, never easy.

Re: Moving house

Hello Jean - downsizing, we had to do that when we moved here. It seemed daunting, but its actually a blessing. Whereas before, we would keep this an that, just in case - now, we dont. We got rid of all the 'this an that' before we got here and you know, we'd never used them or - had forgotten we'd had them !
Now, I dont hang onto clothes I'll never wear, I'm ruthless !
Very best wishes to you Jean - really hope you find that loverly nest....

Re: Moving house

The best of luck finding the place you want Jean and I think now is a good time of year to move, you should be well settled in by Christmas, you'll be a busy girl in the coming months, hope things work out great for you.

Re: Moving house

Thanks friends, I am staying in the belfast area, yes I agree you have to be ruthless. I had a car boot sale before I came to belfast plus lots of stuff went to the re cycle and dump. I will keep you posted when I get a new place.
