movingI've found a home!!!!
I just got a phone call today saying that I've been accepted for a flat I applied for yesterday. I'm so happy. It's so cute, a real shoebox but cute. The apartment is in a great location on a tree lined street in a suburb called Newport, 5 min. from the city. it will be strange going from a 3 bedroom house to a tiny one bedroom flat ( and I'm paying more for the apartment than I was for the house!) but it will be wonderful to be settled again.
I'm thinking of using the bedroom as my studio until I get another. I could always just have the workspace in the lounge but I find that I need to separate my work and living areas, especially when I'm working on a really intricate piece, It's important to be able to close the door and not have to think about it for a while. The only real problem with this is that I'm a smoker and I don't like to smoke where I sleep, I guess I'll have to start smoking outside, which is a good thing anyway because I guess I'll smoke less.
I've even gone out and bought new bed sheets and funky dinner plates so that I can start afresh.
Yippee!!
