paperwork
I’m not a huge fan of paperwork. But I can stand it.
In vast contrast to her sister, my wife cannot stand paperwork, and finds herself quickly stressed by it all. Which is kinda sucky, because in taking out a mortgage, there is a seeming plethora of it. And just when you think that you’ve got it all pretty much covered, two giant envelopes show up from ANZ with a couple of theses to read through, and about 43 pages to sign.
Let’s not forget that at the same time, Debbie is trying to get her surname officially changed. So that also brings with it its own bundle of paperwork and confusion and government departments.
Oh the joy of it all!
I wrote up a to-do list on Friday evening, because I found myself getting quite worried about all the things that needed doing, and was worrying myself into a frenzy that they wouldn’t get done. But now that I have them on paper, sorted by date they need to be completed by, I feel a bit more in control. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot to do… but at least now I can see that I only have to do a certain amount of things this week :)
Oh, and we still have to pack.
3 weeks and 5 days!
