Moving Day and Illness

So we have officially moved as of last Saturday. We're in our new little maisonette (an apartment built purposefully as an apartment rather than a house converted into one/two) and it's awesomely close to the hospital, NHS Walk-In Centre AND our general practitioner's offices. Like walking distance. Which is great bcz the bus system is nowhere near as well oiled as London's buses. I will never complain about London buses again!

But on the Friday before, I ended up getting a rather nasty throat infection (I am amazed that it hasn't turned to Strep throat bcz it FEELS exactly like it) and haven't quite gotten over it a week later. In fact, my voice is only just coming back since losing it on Sunday evening. So that sucks. That and not having the energy to go to the town centre to buy things we still need for the place like a cheap sofa and a chest of drawers (we got an unfurnished place and have no furniture lol) Luckily, the place had a futon sofa/bed that is surprisingly comfortable to sleep on so we'll be using that for the forseeable future.

There is still so much to get for the baby. We've yet to buy a pushchair (which we need immediately) or a cot (which can wait a little since he'll be sleeping in a moses basket for the first month or 3. And it would be great to get a little kid's chest of drawers or wardrobe for his stuff. And does he have stuff! Our cup certainly runneth over with baby items!
