A work in progress
Thank you all for the lovely comments on my last post. I bet you thought now my dissertation is over I would have time for my blog again. Yeah, me too. But once the dreaded dissertation was handed in the whole moving thing took over every single minute that I wasn’t at work. The new flat is very much still a work in progress, but we’ve got the bedroom finished-ish (painted, skirting boards put on, bed put together) and today is official moving day. This will be my last post for a while. Once the computer is unplugged and taken away I will no longer be able to access the Internet. I’ve arranged for my contract to be transferred to the new place as of tomorrow, but as far as we can tell the connections in the flat are all wrong so somebody is going to have to come out and provide us with something to attach the modem to. No idea when that will happen. I will be back then anyway, whenever ‘then’ turns out to be.
For now I shall leave you with some photos of the bedroom, the island of calm admidst the chaos. (Trust me, you don’t want to see what the other rooms look like… furniture and boxes piled in every bit of the living room and dust sheets all over the place to catch falling bits of paint! We shall have our wrk to cut out to get everything looking semi-decent before my visitor comes on the 31st…)
Freshly painted and with skirting boards
Furniture!
Where I shall be sleeping from now on...

Very nice! I love the bed spread and side tables! IKEA no doubt? The floors are lovely. Looking forward to snaps of the rest of your flat!
Lovely! It looks so bright.
It looks like it’s going to be wonderful little nest for you and Jan! Despite all the hard work ahead, I hope you will enjoy putting it all together.
And don’t worry about us – we’ll be here when you get back! Have fun!
looks lovely!
Enjoy (or try to) your time away from the intertubes!
Them chest of drawers from Ikea…I have them (as do half the world) *high five*
girl, this is where the TWO of you will be sleeping from now on!!!
Looks like it’s going to be fabulous!
Yay! Moving in to your shared place is such an exciting time. It even adds some romance to the boxes strewn around the apartment. It’s much more fun doing it in twos!
Looking good Bev – good luck with the rest of it!
Actually that bed looks very cosy
