Delusions of grandeur ...

I received official confirmation in the mail today that the tax department had indeed screwed up, and accordingly will be sending me a rather large apology in monetary form within the next ten days.

Seeing as we left all our furniture behind at the house in Whangarei, and the house here is basically fully furnished, we made sure the rugrats had what they needed and left our bedroom as it is. Namely a moderately comfortable double bed (which is kinda small when shared with a rather large man, especially when used to a king sized bed), two cardboard boxes serving as bedside tables and a couple of suitcases on the floor.

I miss having furniture. I never ever ever thought I would say this ... but I actually used to enjoy putting my laundry away. And as it is now nearly two months since we left Whangarei, needless to say the novelty of living out of a suitcase has well and truly worn thin.

So this weekend I am going to go and put a deposit on a very large bed and some bedroom furniture. And now I come to think of it, I'm going to be needing clothes to put in those drawers ...
