This, too, will soon be the past

"I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.”
-Jerome K Jerome.

And I know exactly what he is talking about. Have been doing the same thing for the last couple of days. But I just had to start today. So now I have to pack and clean the house and connect/ disconnect all the connections in 2 days flat. And let's not forget that for the past two months, I have been puting all bills, scraps of paper, mail, maps into the drawers thinking, I have to clean them soon anyway. Well, soon has come....Each room looks like its been hit by a cyclone. Tweedledum's clothes which have never been folded, mine which have never been ironed. And if that wasn't enough, 3 loads of washing since morning all hanging outside to dry and what do you know, a bright sunny day turns cloudy and the rain comes.....Has the meteorological department gone on leave too! And all this when I haven't even got to the kitchen as yet.

And of course, the two of us and our brilliant management. EDF/ GDF is through but when it came to France Telecom, what do you know, I can't find our new house contract. This, of course, implies no application till we move into the new house. The thought of a week without Internet is giving me high blood pressure palpitations.

So, what do us brave souls do at moments like this.....play some music and go dance!
