Reorganising your life in a week

So the excitement of arriving in Sydney was great, but the task to setup a life was greater.

We had in all necessity sorted the flat however did need to sign on the dotted line, this was to occur on Monday 20th February in the mean time the task list grew...and grew...

  1. Get tax file numbers
  2. Change driving licenses
  3. Apply for a credit card
  4. Go to see the bank to get draft for the rental bond
  5. Find a sofa, 
  6. Find a mattress
  7. Find a bed
  8. Find white goods, research white goods
  9. Organise gas and electric
  10. Buy kitchen utensils, pots and pans
  11. Buy crockery...
All while Sarah continued the job hunt and James prepared to start the new job in 10 days.....

Needless to say its the 21st February today, James starts work in 7 days and we're still not sorted!

The new list as of today:
  1. Got tax file numbers supply them to employers
  2. Change driving licenses - still not done
  3. Apply for a credit card - declined as we have no credit history!!!
  4. Go to see the bank to get draft for the rental bond - Done
  5. Arrange delivery of the new sofa
  6. Arrange delivery of the new Mattress
  7. Find a bed - still not done
  8. Find white goods, research white goods - still not done
  9. Buy crockery...- still not done
As you can see some items have gone, some remain and some have changed but its still a long list so sorry for no exciting blogs!
