Yeah so the bad back turned out to be a bad back not just a sleeping funny thing. It's was still hurting on monday but has gone nowy. Many apologies to Keef, Jamie and Mutt for not making it out on Friday night. I wrapped myself in a duvet and lay on the sofa motionless, watching fight club with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fuzzygoth. didn't sleep much.
Saturday involved more lifting (or pointing at things needing lifting), fishtank relocation. trips in_pyromancer_'s van, the wearing of protective clothing and some extremely ick carpet lifting. the foam backing on 2 of the 3 carpets had entirely disintigrated leaving piles of dust a centimeter deep in places. managed to just make it to the tip in time. had to remove some railings so fuzzy and al could get the fridge freezer out of the cellar - it's now sitting forlornly in the garden waiting for someone to pick it up. got back to the new house (via a van full of my plant pots including the belfast sink - yay!) and feasted on pizza and sweet sweet boozes.
Sunday was back to the house for more - al bravely helped clear under the kitchen sink where, amongst other horrors, a completely rusted through baking tray lurked. we managed to clear the top 2 floors apart from my pc (set up in the spare room with the monitor on a garden chair and me sitting on the floor - we don't have internet at the new place yet :P)
the past 2 nights have been spent there throwing out the last scraps of stuff (by scraps I mean the 9+ bin bags around my bins which are now full to busting despite being emptied on monday), scrubbing, vacuuming, mopping, touching up scratches in the living room paintwork (I figure he's more likely to keep the magnificent decor if it's not got scrapes) and transporting stuff to the new house. he's viewing at 11am today so send good vibes at that time. or turn around and stand outside looking menacing.
tonight brings a trip to IKEA (woo IKEA!) with Jack to buy exciting stuff for the new house - some communual stuff as there's no storage anywhere (yay! booze corner!), a computer desk for my cave and a rather nice 4x4 expedit unit for my bedroom. then I can get on with the job of sorting the new house out - as it's rammed full of boxes of shite from the old place. aaaaand relax...
