Better weather is on his way...

Better weather is on his way... 

The weather forecast forspelled 20 degrees and dry weather on Sunday and Monday, I don't have much with Dutch weather forecast forspelling, usually they forspelled it wrong, so I will see. Hopefully they forspelled it right. Today the weather was nice aswell, here and there a cloud but the sun was powerfull with 15 degrees, it felt nice. I have nothing planned yet these coming days, most people in Holland are excited about up coming Monday, Queens day! There will be flea markets, normal markets, festivals, concerts, etc, etc. mostly everyone and everything is dressed and decorated in orange. Orange is our national color.

So yeah, nothing planned yet, though I would love to decorate my house a bit more. For example curtains, new, better plants, a few vases, etc. Such things aren't free, I wish, lol. Guess I have to save money for these things, but painting the shower and buy a second duvet case, (hope that's the right word) is on my agenda this weekend, sigh, damn money. I don't buy things cause I'm bored or just like that, I'm buying things cause it's needed. It's the way it is, I have to take it easy with my money. Today I had some mail aswell, the rent is going up. It's not that much, but still. The rent is going up every year though, it's normal.

"The Dutch cabinet has approved  that housing associations a rent increase to 5 percent may impose on tenants with a gross income of more than 43,000 euros. The purpose of the measure to tenants with higher incomes to stimulate their social housing to leave. That should release more cheap houses for people on low incomes."

I received a letter aswell from my corporation with the writing above, I have a social house too cause I have a low income. It makes sense though, it's to give the people with a low income a better chance for a house. Social house's are for people with a low income and that should stay like that. Though I'm in doubts, I have a low income yes, but is it low enough for my social house? Or do I have a high income now, to high for a social house? Is it that why my rent is going up? Confusing! I will ask for information upcoming week to find out what's going on with this letter.

I had a dentist appointment aswell today, she filled my nearly broken filling, so my whole tooth is fixed now. This tooth has had a root-canal treatment, and a new filling. No pain at all, last week the dentist did a part of the fixing aswell, and I had pain afterwards for a few days. "That was normal, it was the healing what caused the pain,"the dentist told me. She's a nice person, I can ask her anything about my teeth, and she's good. October I will have the next appointment. She will inform me by email.
