Finding somewhere to live

One of the worst things about splitting up when you live together is that you have to find somewhere new to live; you have to go back to your old house to move all of your things, and you have to be really nice to your new landlady to get her to let you move in your cats whom your ex despises and wont keep at the house they've lived in for 3 years.

That's after trawling the internet, estate agents and friends to find somewhere to live in the first place.

I've managed to get accomodation for one of my cats at my mum's, he likes to spend all day outside and sleeps at night; the other one sleeps all day and harrasses people at night, so my mum won't have him.

I'm not looking forward to ringing around all the usual places to change my address again.... AND now I have to buy all the household things again, you know, bed, vaccuum, sofas, cutlery, pans, tv. I already owned most of this stuff, but seeing as I'm being forced to leave my six year old son I can't leave him with a single chair to sit on.

Not Fun.
