Computer love
Greetings all. For those who don't live in Wellington and have thus not heard me keening (:P), my computer got a bad virus a few weeks back and has been out of action for a painfully long time. I ended up having to just back up data and reinstall Windows, and start again. I thought I was going to have to buy Vista for a while there - noooo! - but

How do you feel about that, by the way? I know if my parents sold my (well, yeah, it's theirs, shh) house I'd be mega upset. But then, that was also your dad's house, y'know?
I'm sure there was a lot of deliberation in regards to finances and life situations and all that stuff - the new house is maybe closer to your mum's work or friends or in a better situation or price range...But at the core of it all, how does it make you feel?
Oh, and where's David at these days?

Basically, the house was mine and David's, but not really yet, you know? But Mum was paying the mortgage and rates and everything, without having any claim to the house, and it was way to expensive for her. So, she moved out after we'd both moved out, and we decided to sell it.
I'm not as worried about losing the house itself as I am about losing a) a place to keep all my stuff for the future and b) a place to go home to easily - because while I'm totally welcome at Mum's, for now her place is small and it's not very feasible long-term. I'm spending more of my time in Wellington now anyway but, you know, it's just nice to have somewhere?
Anyway, emotions are all caught up in it, but over the years since Dad died attachment has lessened, as it has with a lot of stuff in Auckland (I still love the people <3). I worked through it, I'm over it - more or less. Heh.
