Moving
So I finally called my parents tonight about my phone, and they're convinced I have the insurance details. I'm sure that they didn't actually send it to me. Unfortunately, the file that it's in if I have it, is packed, and it's quite remarkable the number of boxes I have marked filing. Filing includes anythingn from random scraps of paper, old uni notes, hardcopy writing of mine, t-col stuff, and so on. I don't think I'm going to find it until I unpack, which fortunately, isn't too far away.
Bought a vaccum-cleaner and took some things up to the flat today. When I say things, I mean a few books (since I've been working my way through the Vorkosigan series completely out of order) and most of my framed pictures. Garden Verses still has to go up, and most of the posters, but I'm getting sorted and feel relatively under control. I imagine I'm going to end up with a box labelled 'stuff' which is all those bits and pieces I haven't packed yet because they're either small and bitsy or I think I might need them.
We have had electrians here today. There are now lights in that work easily in the hallway (both sets) and an outside light. It is most impressive, and really, the place does seem rather dingy with them all on. They weren't able to wire within the walls, so there are white plastic casings covering the wires. They stand out somewhat against the blue of the walls. The electricians weren't exactly sure why the wiring still worked, since it fell apart in their hands.
I'm rather glad I'm moving. I'm under control with the packing, aside from the stuff, and things seem to be going well.

If you want to volunteer to drive me, my cat in a carrier, and probably minor random things up to Pembroke Rd. after the movers are through here, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
