Saturday Morning

We ended up changing all the furniture arrangements last night. I already changed the lounge and the computer room yesterday before A. came home. It’s all more convenient and more spacious. We have all the wardrobes in the bedroom [but we still need more space *grin*] and I changed the setup in the lounge. I will take a few pictures soon. A. is still thinking of buying a bigger house but to be honest I quite like it here! Especially the silence is so nice, no annoying sounds at all, so peaceful! Except for the odd police siren but I’m getting used to that already.
We cleared out a few boxes last night, most of our clothes are stored now and the empty boxes are in the attic. I think we’re doing pretty well being here for just a week and making good progress. A. took the Lexus, it failed the test and he is sorting out tyres today. If all goes well we will be able to drive it later on so we can go places and buy stuff we need. There is a whole list of little things that we need to buy or do. I’m also getting my new cell phone today. I’m still with Vodafone and if I take a two years contract I can get a really nice Sony Ericsson K800i [see specs below].
The good thing is that A. wanted me to have GPS over here and I’ve found software that is compatible with this phone. I’ll buy it and will have a life time license and updates, it will cover all of Europe with maps and street names and even voice instructions; really cool! There are also package deals for just the UK and Ireland, Benelux, Italy, France etc.
A. just came back, the car is fixed so we can go! Yay! I’m on my way to the stores now. I guess sorting out the pictures of Croatia has to wait, I have to get ready to leave. I have about 500 pictures and a few movies so it will still take a while, sorry about that. Speak to you soon! I’m going to get my new phone…

K800i
Cyber-shot™ digital still camera. And mobile phone.
It’s here. A Cyber-shot™ digital camera and a small and sophisticated feature-packed 3G phone all in one. Bring the K800i with you and you have a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus, image and video stabilizer and built-in Xenon flash ready for any moment, anytime.
BestPic™ technology lets you capture several images in quick succession with one press of the camera key. Pick the best. Delete the rest. A camera stabilizer function compensates any small movement of your hand when you’re taking a picture and shooting video. When you’ve taken a photo, you can share it straight away using Bluetooth™, multimedia messaging or blog it.

Hi Folks

I’m back! I had problems with my blog due to permission settings that seemed to have changed when the Irish lads immigrated my stuff from one server to the other. So my blog had disappeared for a few days. I sorted it out though and things seem to be fine again.

I also had a major problem with my email, I could receive mails but I couldn’t send them out. Fixed that too. In the meantime I’m unpacking stuff and trying to make it all nice and cozy setting up my own little space here where I should feel comfortable.

I have 3 memory sticks with pictures of our holiday in Croatia and need to sort them out, some video’s too. There is a lot to tell and a lot to show but I still have to prepare stuff for this. I’m thinking of building a separate website to show the pictures. There is still so much to do over here though!

Tomorrow A. will start his job and I’ll be home taking care of boxes, blogs, websites and computers. I have to take care of my main website because I have to move it to the Irish lads too. I’m thinking of a redesign though because I need a proper portfolio to show to people.

I realise I’m getting myself into a bit of a situation by trying to do all of that too but I need it so I can place an add and get some assignments in… I also will write on here about things that I find striking, funny, rare, upsetting, weird, beautiful, humorous etc. over here. It will be my daily reflection of something new. My explorations described… And I’ll call it: ‘Noticeable Oddities of the Day’

For now I have to leave you and sort out the office space. I’m slowly getting there but I need to do some work still. I will start looking at the pictures in a couple of hours and see if I can publish a few on here. Later! Oh and don’t hesitate to leave comments please, so far one friend had the guts to tell me the truth to my face… *jeez*

Bunch of wusses… :D
