The flat hunt starts

Today was the first viewing I had for an apartment in the city. It's going to cost me at least 5k just to set up. 5k is the bond and the 1st month's rent in advance. I only have 1 dining table and 1 queen size bed no other furniture. I've found 2 places that I like so far. 1 is only open next week and one I just found so I'll call about tomorrow. I dunno what I'm going to do. But I feel I'm coming down with something. My head is pounding, I've been rather stiff in my shoulders for the last few days and it hurts to breathe deeply in my chest. I must have something, but for once, I think work is going really well. I'm very productive and I'm trying to help out as much as possible. I have a course that they have put me on but it's online training. Now I've lost my apartment, I have to have it completed in a certain time frame. Apparently, I will get a bonus. But no one has told me that, just the guy who did it last time so we'll see how it goes. I have to go back to the apartment in the weekend and move everything out. i'm much more positive than I was yesterday, but it's just such a hassle that in all honesty, I didn't really need.

No home for me

I just found out that where I was going to be moving to is not a go now that they have sold the place. I'm so racked off I was going to move in this weekend. Now I turned down accommodation because I had somewhere to live. Now I'm going to have to get up at 6am to start work at 9pm. What will I do?

Productivity is my middle name

What a productive day I had today.  It started off with a trip to the doctor to get my injection, next was a trip to the beauty parlor for a lovely facial including an arm and hand massage then, I headed off to purchase a queen size mattress which was on special because it was last years model, a few errands here and there and I'm now ready to relax. I'm so glad I found an awesome mattress which wasn't too expensive and is very comfortable. I just have to pick it up when I know the exact date of my move (which I should know next week), and on top of everything I've lost 2.7 kg since Monday.  How cool is that. I'm so close to my goal weight which is only 4.3kg away. I'm hoping by the end of march, I will be at my goal weight. I think to reward myself when I get there I might get some designer jeans - or maybe some killer boots. I'm not sure yet.  Or should I completely blow out the boat and get a Macbook air- nah, I'll go for clothes, god knows I need them. I threw most of them out to move to this country, so I've got to build up a wardrobe.
