Before Moving Anything Into Your New Home

Before moving any of your belongings into your new home, it's important to make sure that everything is as it should be. You may have had a list of repairs you expected—or this may be the first time you've seen the house empty. 


Take some time to go around with a notepad and check all of the sockets for obvious signs of wear and tear; look for damage that you might be otherwise liable for.

Ensure that cupboards are empty, free of damp, mold or bad smells, and keep a close note of what where the electricity, water and gas valves are. While doing this, get a feel for where you can place any furniture, how to get it up any stairs or even just into the house. Whether hiring a moving company, or doing it yourself, planning ahead can make a big difference.

Note any damage or concerns that need to be discussed—it's important to have these notes before moving anything in so that you can get the problems remedied as soon as possible.

If you're renting from a landlord, he'll give you a list of any fittings, fixtures and furniture to be left as-is—it's very common nowadays for landlords to leave 'white goods'—kitchen appliances, such as the fridge, freezer, washing machine and cooker. 

If renting, your landlord should also give you contact details, emergency repair numbers and any paperwork pertaining to these emergency repairs that you may need. You may also want to get bank details or arrange rent collection. Once final paperwork is signed, you can start making your new place your own.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
