As the days go by.......

As the days go by..... 

I feel calmer as the days go by, it seems most of the things fall in place now, slowly though, bit by bit. Sure it's hectic and I try to plan as much as I can, but it seems when I have a plan it always changes cause of silly situations. Today at work Paula called me to tell me that the money has arrived, but, (there's a but again, lol) the money stood on the Humanitas bank account on not on my own. (ING) Since I have been at Humanitas I have two bank accounts, I have ING and Humanitas's account. The Humanitas account was specially to take care of my money and my montly money. In that way I wouldn't spend my money just like that, paying my guilts and saving my money for when I would left Humanitas was there goal. Anyway, the loan money has to go to my own account and that takes a day said Paula. Well alright, I'm happy the money arrived. 

Mark (who will help me) and his girlfriend confirmed with me last night, Mark told me, "When the money is there, then give me a sign and were off." Nice, of him, but (another but) something happened today. Mark and his girlfriend Margareth are living aswell at Humanitas, Margareth had two appointments last week in the office, (the usually once a week  meeting with a counselor for every resident) but she didn't go, and that's sure not a thing to do at Humanitas. Second, Margareth went out to another city for a long weekend at her friends house, but she didn't inform this at the office. Humanitas wasn't happy, and Margareth had a 'time out' for two days. Meaning she can't get in the building for two days.  Mark wasn't happy with it aswell, but still I didn't had to worry about my laminate, he told me

When Margareth came back after two days she had a meeting with a staff member from Humanitas and her counselor. The meeting was about if she could stay at Humanitas or if she had to go, in other words, homeless. Yeah Humanitas is though lately, there are more people who perhaps have to go for silly reasons. I'm so glad I have a house. After the meeting Margareth's eyes were red from crying, she has to go. And she sure wasn't happy with that, and Mark wasn't either ofcource. The silly thing is Mark can stay but Margareth has to go, seperated like Margareth said. Margareth is a really nice girl, most of the residents call her Mother Humanitas, she's always there for another, she offers help everywhere. And now she has to go. 

I felt bad for her, and hugged her a few times. I left Mark for a bit though just to have a 'his' time, to let him calm down. I won't talk or mention anything about' Ikea,' besides he told me after Margareth's news that he wasn't sure that he will come with me to Ikea and help with the laminate. I told him, "That's alright and understandable, we will see." Sure it sucks, but there were more people offering help so, I'm good. But still, sigh! One guy at work offered help with laying the laminate, and two of my Bosses at work offered me to drive with me to Ikea. The offers are nice but it's not what I had planned, slowly I'm getting used to new plan.

Tomorrow is a day off work, I was planning to buy the laminate tomorrow when the money is there. And then lay it the next day, Mark told me that If he was able to help out he will help Thursday eve.' Mark is working Tursday and so do I, but I asked a day off. I can't ask him to take a day of for me, that's to much. So my plan was to go to Ikea tomorrow and then lay the laminate Tursday eve.' If Mark isn't able to help out, I will go to Ikea prolly Thursday with my Boss from Reha, and then discuss things with Henkie (from Humanitas) and Rob (from Reah) when were going to laythe laminate. I have the time untill next Monday, it would be better If I move over Thursday or Friday though, cause everyday extra after Thursday costs me money. 


I said I took a day off from work this comming Thursday, but I will work in the morning. Cause I can't ask anyone aswell to take a day off for me at work. Working on Thursday means I can prolly ask if the Boss can drive to Ikea with me, and I can arrange a few tools aswell what will come in handy with the laying. Plus I can discuss whit Rob and Henk when they have time for me. A bit of a hectic week but I'm good and calmer. I even went this morning early to my new house before I went to work, I had a few boxes with clothing, I thought I can bring it there already, lol talking about excitment. A little note, I saw early in the morning (when I was on my way to the house) some Arabic people walking to the little mosque. That's normal though but this time there were so many. 


There were more Men then Womenwalking, a fewf men  I saw walking with there sons. Two little boys were so cute to see with there tiny grey suites with a ty. It was interesting to see, and I know now why there were so many Arabic/Islamatic people, it's the sugarfest today as we call it here. It's the end of the Ramadan, "Happy Eid"! We have tons of Turkish and Egyptians living here, I guess they like the city. Anyway, I'm happy how things are going with the moving , I can slowly take it easy a bit. I'm relaxing while I'm writting this post, I will be much more relaxed when I have it all behind me. It sure takes alot off energy out of me, But I can be proud, I did most of it all by myself.
