Santa is bringing me an early Christmas present and I couldn't be more thrilled. He's giving me a clean house, privacy and peace of mind. Yes, Gunnar is moving out!
I had finally had it the other day and told him he needed to move out. I've been putting my life on hold for him for too long and I can no longer handle it. He left and didn't return home or speak to me for a few days. Fine by me. I finally spoke to him today and he's no longer mad at me and he's excited to get his own place. Sometime this week he and his friend Aaron are moving into a three bedroom house about a mile from me.
I'm excited! Not just for me but for him as well. And I'm so excited that it's taking all my willpower to not go out and buy him a bunch of stuff. I'm making mental notes of what he will be needing though. And it's an excuse to get me some new stuff.
He needs furniture and what perfect timing. Jeff just bought a new sofa so Gunnar will take his old one. I recently got a new TV stand from Jeff's friends so I will pass on my old Ikea one to Gunnar. He has dishes but needs some drinking glasses. Mine don't match my dishes so I will pack up my old ones and go get some new, prettier ones for myself. I will pass on my old towels and get me some new, fluffy ones that better match my bathroom.
Life seems to be breezing along once again. I've been at my job since, I think, the 15th of November. I'm liking it more and more each day. I'm so busy that the days and weeks are flying by. The commute isn't so bad. Yet. It's so cold and windy here today. I'm not looking forward to driving to work in the snow or ice. They are cool about what time I arrive so I figure on those mornings when it's nasty outside I will try to leave the house a little bit earlier and just take my time getting there.
Not much else to report. Jeff and I are doing fine. I'm getting excited to have him off and home for Christmas this year. I am going to splurge and get a real Christmas tree this year as a special treat for him.
Life is looking up. History has shown that when things are going well something always happens to spoil it. I'm just hoping that I don't get that phone call from Kjersti telling me she's moving home. Gunnar does have a spare room though so maybe he can put her up for awhile.

I haven't been by for a while as life has been pretty hectic. However, pleased that when I came back today everything seems to be looking great at your end of the world :))
