Life - Update! (Grab a drink, it's going to be a long one!)

I feel like I right these posts quite a lot.. However things keep changing at the moment! Just as I thought I was managing to adult okay things keep going wrong. Or not wrong but not how I thought they would.

Firstly lets talk about the housing situation: When we first moved into this house (just over 6 months ago) we all had in our mind that we'd probably be here at least a year. After that year I hoped I would have enough money to maybe move into a place by myself or a least be looking to do so in the near future. As we only started our contract with 6 months as none of us were employed at the time (oh how things have changed!) when it got to the end of this time our landlord decided he wanted to change the price and fill our spare room in a few months time - something we weren't happy with. This meant I think two days later we were stood in a house considering applying for that house. Despite the guy showing us round telling us to have a look at a few places we already knew that what we wanted was difficult to come by and so the next day we handed in our applications for the house. We got the house, after a few ups and downs and by being cheeky I managed to get us out of paying an extra months rent with our current landlord. I think as I've got older and mostly in the last few months I've realised that if you don't ask you don't get but also that there are still some decent people out there. To conclude, we got the house (well, we are in the process of getting the house and waiting for the application etc to go through) before I get the wonderful job of sorting bills and everything else for when we move in.. *holds head in hands*

Next, the new job, I keep getting people asking me when I start my new job and it's getting on my nerves. I know it's not their fault that it annoys me but as I have no idea it's getting frustrating not knowing what is going on. Since writing the first bit of this post I have has my DBS back and so I'm now just waiting to hear from the hospital but expect I will be starting on the 1st February.

The old/current job: I am going to be staying at my current job as weekend staff as 1 - I need the money, 2 - I love my job, 3 - It's only a four hour contract and 4 - I'm good at giving myself way too much to do and working myself into the ground!

If I'm honest I don't really have an awful lot else going on in my life, but with these big changes I'm sticking to trying to have any spare time to myself and to sort things out. I've been socialising more recently and it's been good to surround myself with friends at what is proving to be a very stressful time. I didn't get round to doing a room tour of my current room and don't see the point now with things being up in the air but hopefully once I'm settled I can show you how I've set out my things and my new place.
