Oh good luck to them. The rugby I'm watching is 6 nations (England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Italy & France) so not local teams. I don't really follow sports tbh.

I'm sorry you're feeling gross! I hate that feeling!






I'm good thanks :) just watching the rugby right now. I'm putting off doing housework lol.
How are you?






Good morning! (afternoon!)






@Wildfire: LOL days like that kind of get on my nerves. But there is always tomorrow!






@Wildfire: :) my day was ok thanks, nothing particularly happened LOL. I was supposed to get started on packing but I.... didn't XD






@Wildfire: Hey, how are you today? Cute new avatar!






@Wildfire: oh wow, so much wildlife! Are they wary of people? We barely even get birds here...






@Wildfire: omg omg wild turkeys??? That's awesome. I've never seen a turkey, wild or otherwise. Your neighbourhood looks lovely, is it very quiet?






@Wildfire: It's a semi-detatched bundalow. Idk if you guys have them there. It's basically a house but only one level. It's good for my mum because she is disabled.
I am excited for storage opportunities strangely enough! Our current place has terrible storage.... And I'm looking forward to measuring up my room and working out if the wardrobe I want will fit in. And I'm looking forward to having a bath with taps that actually WORK (we have to fill our current bath up by redirecting hot water from the sink, which is annoying.....). But mostly I'm looking forward to the ground and living somewhere a bit greener. Our current village is pretty industrialised. This new village has muchos green space:(google maps - on the left are all the nice green fields which I am excited for. The urban-looking area to the north is where I currently live.)






@Wildfire: Haha I AM pretty excited. I mostly can't wait to see inside it (we haven't seen inside yet, there are people still living there). Also there are a bunch of fields right next to the road, so that will be good for dog-walking opportunities.






@Wildfire: sorry to hear you didn't sleep well! I'm doing good today thanks, just starting preparing for the move, making plans etc. I have to package up all my little bits and pieces.






@Wildfire: I know I am getting ahead of myself lol!
How are you this morning / afternoon?






@Wildfire: I would like to have a little table and chair set, with a parasol, so I can sit out there with some Pimms in the summer. And I would like to fence off the front garden so my dog can come in and out as he pleases. It will be nice to have both doors open in the summer so the breeze flows through <3 I am pretty excited about having a garden lol.

I am also looking forward to the inevitable Ikea trip. I need to buy a new wardrobe, and a unit for the hallway. My bedroom will probably be green, I have already chosen my wallpaper (I tried to find it online but no joy - it's green and orange birds of paradise and leaves on a navy background). I also need to work out where the baby things will go inevitably, hopefully my new bedroom is big enough.






@Wildfire: Haha that sounds pretty much exactly like my experience with gardens. I have a black thumb XD but I will keep trying! I once succesfully grew some lettuce and runner beans, that's about it XD
