((Bweee!))

((Okay, now it's official. No ifs, ands or buts, aside from maybe the headcast's - WE HAS A HOUSE! :D

And it's a HELL of a house, let me tell you. I hadn't realised how absolutely frigid the Colony was before we moved here; I was actually comfortable sitting in the living room - huge! Comfy! Soon to be having a sofa in it! - at gone midnight and wasn't that much more than 'a bit chilly.' ;)

And! And! We have a working shower, a huge bath, a bathroom that looks like something from Arabian Nights, a kitchen I can actually cook in, winding stairs with a big old wooden door separating the upstairs from the downstairs which is just awesome on principle as well as keeping the noise down and the warm in, an oven which I swear is like something out of Girl Genius...

...Oh yeah. I'm happy. ^_^ I'm far more relaxed than I've been for a good six months, though I've yet to stop jumping like a kicked cat every now and again - I feel like I've just been rescued from an animal sanctuary. *sighs*

And there are flowers everywhere! There's a rose bush curling around the shed in the back garden, and the garden has a pond for pretending we have waterlilies - I don't know if there are any or not, but unfortunately I'm an optimist ;) - and there are ivy-tiles around the oven and ivy painted on the basin in the bathroom. :D ...And did I mention the stained glass window in the bathroom? *flails!* This is so many shades of awesome!

We don't have the internet hooked up yet, but fingers crossed that getting the phone line won't take too long. I can't remember how long it took getting the Colony connected the first time around... :/ Regardless, I can get to my email once a day at work, and everyone who needs it has my number, yes? *cuddles all* Basically, me and Koi and Mikki are home and safe and thoroughly squeeful. We managed to cook dinner in a clean kitchen for the first time in months! I squee!

You lot take care of yourselves, okay? *dances happily, cuddles all and goes to collapse from lugging boxes*))

So, so much yay for house...I feel so much better it's unbelievable. *purrs quietly* I shall send pictures as soon as we has our own internet - there's not an open wireless network that I can borrow round there. ^^;;

*glomped! Yay!* ^_^

*pets and cuddles and pets some more* I'm glad you're feeling better, dear.

Just watch out for pervy fey...

I had a definite feeling you'd perk up after getting a change of venue, especially the way you kept flailing happily over the house and angsting over your current living conditions. Positive changes in venue often cause positive changes in mood as well. *hugglesnugs!* I can't wait to see it. Anything lacking that I can bring over as housewarming presents?

I'll see if I can't send you over an email every day or so in order to keep us in some semblance of contact, as actually posting letters takes far too long and costs too much. And we have LJ of course.

Perking doesn't even cover it. There's a lot of ghosts I've managed to put to rest over the last couple of days, not to mention practical things like getting my room sorted and settling into the house - it feels so much better in every direction, it really does. *sighs contentedly*

...Now I just need to make sure I've got a bed before you arrive. O_O

*happy snugs!* Glad to see you and the house are meshing quite well, then.

Eh, if not I can take the couch or set out some pillows on the floor. Is all good.

Can has bed ordered! :D It'll be here by the end of the week, so we should be sorted! ^_^ *glomps happily*

Yay bed! ^_^ *happy snugs* And the internets?

I dunno about the internets yet - will probably come home to a scowling fish and find out that BT didn't turn up for the second day running. :/
