Another day of hauling and carrying. You know some people go to the gym to use the stair-master. We have it for free. Moving from an apartment with a spiral staircase, and then down two more flights of stairs is tough going, and then adding that to walking the items up the stairs at the new house,....well you get the picture. Buns of steel....
The good news is that we have all of the components ready to assemble inside the wardrobes. We have also transported most of our clothes. Talking of clothes. I have never really considered moths. Sure I have turned my nose up at he smell of mothballs. Well today was a real surprise. I found six of my jackets eaten through. Now for those that know me, this could be considered a good thing. My jackets are long in the tooth.
It is really time to start planning a house warming party. On Dec. 15th last year we had an open barn party where many people came to see the original house, and peruse the plans. It was a bitterly cold day, well below freezing. This year we can offer them a warm house, and even warmer jacuzzi. The major hurdle is to decide on a theme for the event. Suggestions please....
An interesting piece of local gossip came our way today. The recently married daughter from our neighbour and her husband have purchased the house behind ours. They originally wanted to purchase our house, but we beat them to it, and the air turned frigid when they saw us celebrating our purchase on the day of signing. We hope things warm back up. Anyway. Congratulations to Este and Marco.
Some of the vital tasks this week are as follows:-
1. Seal the great wall
2. Paint the underside of the stairs
3. Relocate and position the satellite dish, whilst the scaffolding is in place
4. Establish the office
5. Keep on moving.....
