After all the weekend happenings, Roy has sorted the car insurance and we owe A LOT less then we thought, and we are getting a courtesy car sooner than we thought, and the Lexus drop off has been moved up, so I should have it by the end of the week. ;D

Finding that the local launderette has a drop-off service! 

in future, if you ever see a sign that says 'service wash'... that's what that is!  :)

We thought my boyfriend wouldn't be able to visit the week before I move and fly back with me due to it being too expensive and too much of a hassle to be on the same flights. But yesterday we had a look and found it for under 400 pounds (a major deal when it takes 3 separate flights to get from Pasco, WA to Manchester, UK)! So he booked it and I get to have him here in the states for an entire week and then we're flying back to England together. I'm so excited!

New UP - waking up late this morning but still in time to get ready for work.  He he!  That's what I get for dancing all night I suppose!

Sleeping really well last night.  We also celebrated my FIL's birthday last night with chocolate cake.
