Anticipation.

I haven't heard from Fredrik yet today, and I hate sitting and waiting for information.. grr..! :))

He's supposed to call the realtor in Åmål and push her to push the house owners to be out by the beginning of May.
The realtor told us that they aren't very interested in finishing very much before we move in .. but they will finish the downstairs bathroom. The rest is a bit of painting here and there, so no big deal with that.

And Fredrik wants to redo the flooring in.. most of the house. But I think we will just do the baby's room for now. :) The room will probably look just like the room we redid here, but maybe a slightly darker green. :) The intention was a sage-ish color, but it just didn't end up that way.

But someone did call yesterday and was very interested in our radhus. He said his wife was sick, so he'd call back today and try to figure out when they can come see the house. We told them that time is an issue (because of realtor-paper-signing) and that we'd like to do it without the realtor. So, we'll see if he calls back and if anything happens.

And a little update on the baby-name-situation ... Fredrik was very annoyed and disappointed.. :/ He said "We have to change them now."
But then he decided that he likes them both so much anyways (Freja and Emma), that we will keep them both. :) (He can be very, very picky sometimes.) :/ :))
Haven't decided on which, or maybe to use Emma as a middle name.. But we like Lovisa, too..
But I think we are still pretty stuck on Sebastian. :))

We did well yesterday with packing. We packed lots of books and completely cleaned out the shed. We packed everything that we are taking with us from in there, and we are leaving a box of stuff for the new owners, if they want it.

And we've decided we're not taking the piano .. a little disappointed about that, but it is extremely heavy (and a bit out of tune). And one of his workmates, Tommy, wants a piano, but his girlfriend always complains about apartment space, so we'll see if they take it or not. :)

And we have some things we have to get rid of.. :/ And I am no good with helping to carry anything (I feel very useless at this point) .. and we don't want to put any of this junk in our BMW, and it scarely enough won't fit in his work car ... so, he has a work mate, Daniel, (the one I always make brownies for) that has horses and a horse trailer, so we are thinking that maybe he can come help Fredrik carry stuff and we can load it into a horse trailer and take it like that.. (it is big stuff, like the standing drier that was here when we moved in, and the old clothes-line that we replaced a little while ago.. So, we'll see if we can organize that somehow. It wouldn't be a problem of getting a trailer from work for Fredrik's work car, but that I can't help carry is the bigger problem.. :/

Took the cutest picture of Caesar today when he was yawning ... but I can't share it because I don't have any cords for my cellphone .. but I sent it to Fredrik and he should be able to put it on the computer, so I'll have to put it on here.

Hmm.. that is all for now..
Need to work on school work.. :/ blah..
