Son has decided that he will move into Trevor’s flat. So today he set the wheels in motion by coming with us into town and going to see the letting agent – she handles both his and our tenancies. Agent was somewhat put out; but we fully expected this, as she always appears to be put out by having to attend to tenants’ needs. Anyway, she told Son that he would have to serve out a full two months’ notice before he could switch tenancies – unless he could find somebody who could move into his house straight away.
And Son remembered that Pauline and John had told him that the carpet-fitter who was putting new carpets into Trevor’s flat had mentioned that he had a son who was looking to rent a house locally. The carpet-fitter had a workplace a few streets away, so off we went, hoping to catch him. At the workplace, an assistant told us that Carpet-Fitter was in hospital with heart problems. But Carpet-Fitter’s wife was working in her shop around the corner. So Son dashed in there; her son was still looking for a house, she confirmed, and she would pass on the message.
So it looks like Son will be joining this little community very soon.
Today was one of my bad days. I’m starting to work out that my ill-health is linked to stress – any kind of stress, including poor sleep.
Last night, I couldn’t sleep much – too many worries going on, too much to think about. Last week, after having to empty out my change jar just to to be able to buy some basic shopping, I decided that I was well and truly sick of being poor. So I’ve been looking hard at ways of making money from websites and affiliated ads, making plans, putting various wheels into motion. So sleep and relaxation have ben hard to comeby – I want this project to succeed.
Anyway, today, it rebounded on me, and I’ve been dreadfully tired and breathless again. But, I’m very hopeful that my project will start making me money eventually.
