We sold the car to DM. and ER. It’s better like this, selling my first car feels weird although we already have a Lexus in the UK waiting for us. Not sure, if it will replace my Red Monster because I’m a sentimental goat and that car took us all the way to the South of France several times, through rain, hail and snow storms, in winter time and in spring. And even though we had 235 views on the website where we had it for sale, it still feels better to sell it to friends. I’ll miss it… So long my favourite engine, thanks for the spin!

Half an Hour
I allowed myself to use the internet for half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening. Just to relax a bit and write something on here or surf the net. I need my daily dosage of internet. Today I have to go to the post office and mail off 19 letters to France, the UK and the Netherlands and a package to Scotland [I promised A. to take care of his mail too so it’s not all mine].
Then I will have most of the day to sort out boxes and in the evening vulture #2 will have a look at the apt. Hopefully he will accept some of the stuff that we would like to leave here so I don’t have to rip it all out. It’s going to be a hectic move. Landlords these days or not that easy going anymore. AS. was surprised to hear what we will have to do still before we move out; remove shelves and fill holes in walls, remove carpets, clean the house etc. It will take another day to sort all this out.
It would have been easier if JK. could’ve taken the place because we already discussed what she wanted me to leave behind, which was most of the stuff that we will have to throw out now. She was also willing to pay the deposit. I guess all this happens for a reason and I’m trying hard not to think too much about it and accept things the way they are, which is hard at times. Chantal will come over and meet up tomorrow evening. I promised her my espresso machine. On Friday DM. will come over for coffee and hopefully she will take one of the workbenches that are in the spare room.
I’d rather give it to friends instead of having to throw everything out. Last week I’ve put some stuff outside the day previous to collecting the garbage and everything was gone the next morning. I was very pleased with that. It means people took it and hopefully will use it. I chucked out a crappy BBQ but that thing was gone too. Amazing to see what people take. I hope they will enjoy it! It’s such a shame to throw out perfectly good stuff and watching it getting wrecked by the garbage truck.
Anyways, I’d better start the day since I had my half an hour already and get into my favourite thing to do… Talk later
