17.04.2013 -7 months flat out its time to Pass out!!!

this is some sort of dog theme park!!!
Scott is still stuck in his Balaton sleeping pattern, he decided to get up at 5:30 in the morning, probably he didnt know what he was doing, because he looked half asleep with his grab anything to wear morning face, but I was still asleep not being able to say a word.  He took the dogs to the dog run, which is famous for its busy social dog network and a has a great variety of dog run games, tricks and ladders and its huge, so the dogs love it, and also Scott met a couple of the locals, who, he said were really nice. After his return, I kind of had to explain it to him, that it is only 6 in the morning, so he passed out again, and we woke up at around 9, and we had a lot of things ahead of us for today.
have you seen this shoplifter please call the police!!!
The first on the list was to sort out the hot water, which we still haven't had, but luckily the landlord was already on the case, and she sent someone over within about 10 minutes:). Are we being watched?? At least, he fixed the boiler and now the flat is in perfect working order, so we could continue are big to-do list of the day. We have really thought about stuff in the past few days, and decided that we should sort out everything for us to be actually able to rent a bar if we fell in love with one straight away. From the registration of Scott in Budapest, to normal internet and our bank account, we have lots to do before we get into the posotion where we can view bars in a professional way. We realised that we need to be very organised in order to run a successful business, to set up such a big project and have our home office. This is the riskiest part of the project, since we have to find the pefect location and property for what we have in mind.
the one shop where you always grab a cheap hotdog!!
and steal their big blue bags hahaha
So, we made our way down to the bank to open up a joint account for us. The ladys been very helpful, and she told us a lot about setting up a company account later and our options, but we have to register ourselves to the new flat before we can do that. We rescheduled the meeting with her for tomorrow afternoon and found out, that we have to go to the Office of Immigration with Scott to get him registered. So...basically Scott is looking forward joining a line of expats in the morning to be officially a citizen:)) because at the moment Scott is an immigrant, but it would help our plan a lot if they let him stay in the country:)! We will see!
We had an idea to go to IKEA quick today and get everything essential that we need for the flat. We try not to repeat ourselves by buying so much stuff that we dont need like in Vienna. Got some nice things for us and went to arrange the UPC contract so we can have unlimited internet and TV as well! 
They are coming around tomorrow to set it up for us. I have never seen Scott so quiet like he is since we came to Hungary. It is still a bit weird, that I have to deal with all the paperwork, and Scotts favourite sentence is: I trust you, where do I have to sign? So, without knowing he already has quite a lot of stuff under his name haha.
scott looking way too english today!
We got good news as well this morning, I phoned the best letting agency in Vienna, to ask them about the flat we left, because we are expecting Scotts deposit back as soon as the new tenants are moving in. It turns out, that someone is interested, and they get an answer from them today or tomorrow, so fingers crossed, that would be a nice added bonus!
All we wanted to do after this busy day is to finally have a bath...lets just say that the hygienic level got quite low in the past day without hot water, but we still had to wait for the landlord to sign our registration form. So, at last she left and we cannot explain how much better we feel after the shower. It hit us today, how much work we have done the past few months, so we are going to sort all the paperwork out this week and then have a break on the weekend, otherwise we are going to go crazy...
Probably we will go out on Saturday somewhere and have a nice dinner with my family, also my sister is coming home today, so we have to catch up with her in the next days. So hopefully tomorrow is our last busy day, we feel more organised now, and cant wait for next week to get into the bar viewings! 
It really starts to feel like summer in Budapest, got very hot in the last week, we feel, even though we had to leave Vienna early, it actually worked out in our favour, as we couldnt imagine ourselves running around now as we have been, when we were working. This looks like a pefect time to open up our business during the summer. 
Wish us luck:)!
