The snow is back and Elli is melting
I'm talking about myself in the third person. Yay. I'm sorry I've dropped of the face of the earth. Seems like I always say this. But things have been stressful. To say the least. I think I might be having a meltdown soon.
Let me start with a good news. Pending a signature, I now have an apartment. YAY. I've been anxiously waiting for the ok for a week and I'm still waiting for the Schufainformation.
However my entire plan of moving is totally down the drain because of my parents piss poor planning. Initially, we were supposed to move out at the beginning of april. My dad stated again and again that it would be possible, that he would make sure we'd have a toilette and shower and stuff and we'd have enough time to look for an apartment. Renovating the house would start in march.
Then it was saidf that renovating would start mit February. Because I had wanted to celebrate getting my own place I had started looking for an apartment as early as november with the wish to start renovating it mid fabruary and move in in march. Avoiding all contruction crews.
I had also planned to have fitting furniture (I don't have much now) by then. Most of the time delivering takes a while. Knowing the extent of the work my brother and I had already uncluttered the attic during christmas.
Long story short. Even though my own plannign still works (renovating, getting furniture), the architact and the plannign there is total crap. My mother jump started us this week. We had to move out all our stuff from the kitchen. The kitchen will be ripped out starting this weekend and I will be able to get my last shower on monday. I have packed about 10% of my stuff. I have not signed a lease yet. I have not done anything for my apartment other then get it. Because obviously buying furniture before that seemed senseless.
So now I'm pressed for time, probably moving into an apartment without getting that much done. Living with boxes, which I really wanted to avoid. I have to hope my friends are available to help me on such short notice and I have to hope that somehow I will get a few days off even though some of my team already have days off and I'm the one filling in for them. And I have special projects I have to get done. And people who always want stuff and demand stuff (aka my bro who does not get that I just don't want to drive him everywhere!!!!!).
At this point I have to move to Düsseldorf during Carnival season. Yay not. Anyways, this is why I'm quiet.

More at my flickR. It was a winter foto tour I did two weeks back and didn't get to post. Not as pretty as Cerri and Kates though ;)
Happy belated birthday to

b)*squished ganz dolle*
c)ack, der Graus! meine Badewanne/Dusche steht dir jederzeit zur Verfügung, Süße.
Ab wann würdest du die Wohnung denn übernehmen genau, wenn das jetzte alles klappt?
no subject
Heee..pretty ici flower. Mir ist so scheisse kalt.
Heee..danke..Sophie hat es auch schon angeboten und ich werde bestimmt darauf zurückkommen. Mein Vormieter zieht am Sonntag aus. Ich hoffe dann dass ich das Wochenende drauf und vieleicht auch zwischendurch streichen kann. Und dann muss ich ja auch diverse Sachen anmelden (Mich selbst, Strom, Internet und Telefon... was brauche ich da noch?).
Und das Karnevalswochenende würde ich gerne den Umzug machen. Ohne Möbel wohl... also ohne viel Möbel denke ich.
no subject
naww *in snuggie einwickel.*
ok, ok :)
und hey, das klingt doch mal nach 'nem Plan.
Strom und was auch immer du zum heizen brauchst musst du anmelden. bzw musste ich, kommt drauf an, wie das bei dir im Mietvertrag ist.
Und hey, du hast bei mir gesehen - das geht auch alles ohne Möbel. alles ist machbar ;). Und streichen ginge auch, solang du nur Kisten mitten im Raum hast, etc.

Ich steich lieber ne woche davor... ich will mich nicht stressen lassen. Mal sehn wie ich das mach. Kann übrigens leider wirklich morgen nich kommen. Wir müssen das noch nachholen.
no subject
müssen wir, besonders, da ja jetzt kaum einer kann.
no subject
Und ist echt doof... dass das am WE so gelaufen ist. Ich will übrigens am 13ten umziehen. Mal seehen wer da zeit hat ;)

Moving under that kind of pressure really sucks. The last thing anyone wants to do is have to move in somewhere whilst there is still work to be done on the place.
no subject
It's just...everything is stressful already and I hoped hoped that with clever plannign I could prevent all that. Sucks big time.

Für die zwei Wochen drück ich die Daumen, ich hatte im November 6 Tage ohne heißes Wasser und Heizung, da bin ich auch ausgewandert.
no subject
Und naja.. ich habe mich heute im Heizungskeller gewaschen...es gibt idealeres :)

Schreib mir doch mal die Adresse in einer Nachricht, dann können wir mal überlegen zwecks Treffen. :) Finde das echt toll, da kann man einfach spontan mal was machen, kochen, Film oder so... :)

Und ehrlich.... ist nur2 mal un die Ecke gehen ;) Ich war voll überrascht als ich auf einem den Friseur bei dir vor der Nase hatte.
no subject
I'm endeavouring to take more pictures, too!
If you need help with the move (where are you moving?) let me know. Even if it's over carneval (hopes). Maybe I can even rope the boyfriend into helping ;)
If you need anything else, let me know...
And oooh, thank you for the Birthday wishes! *knuddel*

Wohoot.. strong dude!!!!!

Well, should Frogspace want me there, then yes. So far she hasn't mailed me :(
Thanks for the heads up.
No, not that much, but I guess male help won't come amiss ;)
no subject
And I'm not that good either.
Well...most of my friends are girls.. but I do hope that some friends of my brother will also help.
no subject

I know you wanted to avoit that kind of situation, but it's not that bad. Moving and renovating always takes time and usually is stressful. *hugs*
