Kevin and I spoke to each other again last night...as we often do. He rang me at work around 11am and of course my shitty signal dropped. So the call was disconnected. So it was down to the old text message.
"Ring me at lunch babes x" I sent. So He rings at 12.40pm. Not being one to say much, he just proceeded to tell me that he will get the keys a week tomorrow for another flat (not the one he originally went for) as this one is fully carpeted, has a bath and a shower and gas central heating and an electric fire.
All it needs is a few licks of paint and a bit of tidying up and thats going to be just perfect! I can't wait to start helping him move into it. I have already aquired my mum and dad's old settee (if you've ever watched Gimme Gimme Gimme with Kathy Burke and James Dreyfuss, then it's similar to the one in their flat!! Very 70's!) and if I can find them, their nest of tables on loan until Kevin can get his own.
I've also managed to drag out some cutlery and kitchen utensils as well as a few plates and mugs. Hopefully Mark and his mom will be able to dig out some stuff for him too.
I really can't wait!!!! Roll on next friday!!!!!

Another I Want Installment
I Want Wednesday. This week is a list of some of the things I'd Like to buy for Kevin's new Flat!
Firstly Some Bathroom essentials.
I'd love for him to let me put one of these in.
Next would be one of these towel rails.
Firstly Some Bathroom essentials.
Next this cute little toothbrush and toothpaste holder, which also doubles as a cup.
Lastly this shelf to go above the sink. Note how it has a hint of girly pink to it...haha.
Next up is Kitchen items. I've already swiped cutlery and a few other little bits from my mom, as she chucked out a load of things when they were replaced.
These are really cute.
I thought this set was really cute.

Kev's flat - An Update.
I must apologise for neglecting you for the past week.
It has been something of a very busy and somewhat hectic week.
First of all, I'd like to share my good news, well I say my good news but it more Kevin's good news really. I have been hoping, praying that he would get a flat and finally be able to move out of his mom's. Well two Wednesday's ago, I had been happily texting him and subtly asked if he had heard anything. He calmy replied with "They rang me about the one behind the Turf." Then he said he was going to tell me on Saturday! How dare he make me wait until Saturday! I was soooooo excited, So excited that I ran downstairs and told my mom....So now he has to wait until Monday when he will hopefully get those MAGIC keys and we can finally get to spend more time together rather than just seeing each once a week.....
I am really happy that he has got the one behind the Turf...It looked lovely from the outside and it's a ground floor flat too and it's supposed to have a Garden at the back. But it's a shared Garden, but hey who cares? I am looking forward to Summer and BBQ's and having friends round and staying up drinking until late with some soft subtle music....It's not too far from the View if we want to go out for a drink or two. It's just five minutes from his mom's and his brother's. So at least when I'm not there he can go round to his mom's or Mark's.
I just can't wait until he gets those keys and we can start moving his stuff in. I've already got some cushions for him, we have a small fridge and a small oven and cooker, and a spare microwave at work. My mom has said that he can have the old curtains out of the dining room and our old settee (that's if it's not too big!) for his living room. I've just found some cutlery that I might ask him about. So really all he'll need then for the kitchen is some salt and pepper pots, a few plates and bowls, some glasses and mugs and a few pots and pans! I am going to root through all mom's old stuff tonight to see what I can find for him. I know his mom and Mark will chip in with stuff too! I just wanna make my own contributions too and if I can get some hand me downs and stuff then all the cheaper!
