I hafta move. We knew this was coming when we moved in. Hoped it would be later, rather than sooner. We were told about 2 weeks into the semester that now is the time, but also told there was no rush. I didn't want to move during the semester. But now, the building I'm in has changed hands and people are making noises again. I'd postpone it until after Christmas if I could, but that's gonna be a busy time with Bunny's visit and then my trip to Canada in early January - so the week before Christmas, when most of my classes are finished, seems to be the best time.
Not a very far move, just up the street from the townhouse we're in to a 2-storey apartment. They want all the FTs in one building so we are 'easier to look after.' Actually, the FAO has obtained the apartment block and some other dept. has taken over the townhouse block I'm in. It's a downgrade in size (new place has 2 baths, 2 bedrooms and a study) but should be an improvement over the leaky ceiling and resultant mold we get here during the rainy season. I'm not upset about moving, in fact am quite looking forward to the new place. But - I've accumulated lotsa stuff in my time here and I don't relish the packing and unpacking that's involved. Sigh.
