Moving Stress!


Nothing ever goes according to plan, does it?
I came home from work this morning after the night shift, got in at about 08:30 and went straight to bed.
At about 10:00 the mobile goes off but I ignore it as I am knackered. No voicemail message is left so I think it can't be important.
At about 10:30 I am woken by the sounds of someone in my flat! A guy who works for the landlord came to check out the flat, thinking that I'd moved out already. He left pretty quickly when he realised I was still in bed. But not until he advised me that I should have been out by now as someone is moving in at the weekend! Bastards! My notice isn't up until Wednesday and they hadn't even told me someone had taken the flat!
I went back to bed and tried to get to sleep but was too wound up. I got back up at 11:30.
The letting agency phoned again soon after and told me that I had told the new tenant I would be out by the 28th! The truth is that I had told the only people to come and see the flat that I COULD be out by then, but as I hadn't heard anything from the letting agency I had put it off as I would normally still have to pay rent until my notice was up.
The guy moving in has nowhere to go, and I do want to move ASAP, so I said I'd see what I could do.
A quick couple of phonecalls to my new landlord and my mate Lee and everything sounds like it should be alright for me to move tomorrow!!!!
So, now I have to pack pretty quickly, I thought I had another 3 days. I have to arrange for the disposal of my furniture, rent a van for tomorrow and chuck out all the stuff I do not need.
Looks like I have a busy day ahead of me, so no time to get comics today.
I may not be able to blog for a couple of days, depending on the situation at the new place, so I apologise in advance if that is the case.
How will you cope without me?
