I'm still not moving, but this week saw lots going on. Monday my conservatory roof needed attention and as the men arrived at 8 am I had to set my alarm and get up early, something I hate is that alarm! They did a good job and now it should be ok! Grandson has been bringing boxes and stuff to store at mine since September as they did not know when the move date would be as there were 8 properties in the chain. They couldn't get a removal van so on the day before moving day he hired a huge van for 4 days and brought nearly all their stuff to me, they spent the night on the mattress in their old home together with the cat. Didn't get new keys until 3pm then all systems go. son inlaw and grand daughter both helped and it was mostly moved that evening. My daughter missed out on the fun as she was in charge at a voting station and did not get home until 11 pm when everyone else was shattered so was she as it is a very long day . Next day we took a car full round to the new house and inspected it. Cat was fine with a few Dreamies and there is so much storage space in this house I was impressed.My knees did not like the 2 staircases to the master bedroom as I have lived in a bungalow for over 40 years and have what us oldies call bungalow knees!!
Now all their stuff has gone.I can see my spare bedroom, my utility room and half of my conservatory. It has been worth it as they now have a lovely home they have worked hard to get and I can see the floor and bed in all my rooms. Just getting every thing back to normal now . stopping now as I need a coffee Have a good day and smile, it's sunny, Val and Poppy xx
I shall have to try and avoid bungalow knees!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear your family are settled and I can understand the tiredness after doing Voting duty - I could never worked out how tiring sitting down all day was!
