Jobs

Well it really rained this morning in the city.  There were men employed to come and get the washing machine which is going to stay at a friend's house.  Mum had also cleared the cupboards out, and had some bags of stuff for the charity shop. V they said they would be here at 9am, but still not here at 11.30am.  At midday the real estate agent bought a couple round.  Mum sat outside as the rain finally cleared.

Finally at 1.30pm they arrived.  Mum wished she took a photo of the guy carrying the washing machine down 3 flights of stairs on his shoulder. They only took 10 minutes to load up so mum is pleased to have more space.

She went for a walk, as she had been inside all weekend.  Now dinner is cooking and packing is going ahead.

What a week!!

  3. Good for your mum for the donations and paring down before the move. It's a great time to do that! Our biped is so pared down now that she's struggling to find things to donate!

    Best of luck with the move; we'll hope for a change in your forecast and that skies are sunny. We hope all goes well and goes smoothly.

  4. Once, when I moved from a ground floor apartment to a top floor, a man carried my deep-freeze on his back up the stairs. I think a successful carry must have to do with balance and weight-distribution. But it's still not something I'd like to try.

  5. Goodness your mum bean has been furry busy! We can't imagine anyone carrying a washing machine by himself...or a freezer either as John wrote.

    Hope the rain clears and you get some sunshine.
