Jun. 29th, 2002 02:02 pmI am feeling rather stressed atm about housing and jobs and money. Have to sort out a place for me and G by the time he has to leave his current place (August). I will have to leave my place September. He has no job yet, and his housing benefit will stop once he moves in with me. I will have no job from September, and can't look for anything permanent because I'm hoping for an OU position (which won't start until next February, and which I won't hear about until December). Moreover, we're getting married at the start of December. It's all quite challenging.
Yesterday we went to look at a place on Thornton Road. It's a bit far out (just beyond the city limit, in fact), though not particularly more so than G's current place (it has far less in the way of local amenities, though). The place itself seemed fine to me, but G didn't like it because it reminded him of somewhere he lived before. On Tuesday we're going to see another place on Mill Road, which would be substantially more convenient. Now I'm worrying that someone else will take it before we have the chance.
Tomorrow we're going to see G's parents again; on Monday we're going to Shire Hall to give notice of intention to marry (which costs a good deal, incidentally); on Tuesday, after we see the flat, G is going to chat to people at Kelly's about jobs.
I really should stop worrying; it won't help at all. Going to barbecue shortly; that'll be nice.
