For the most part. I slept about 14 hours in total yesterday (including naps), and while I felt better today, not entirely well. Still, on avait des choses à faire...

[livejournal.com profile] querrelle was off at 08h45 to pick up the truck. Winnie, Ron, and Jeannette showed up at 09h30 to start shifting stuff downstairs. [livejournal.com profile] querrelle had taken apart all that needed to be unIkead last night, which turned out to be wicked clever. [livejournal.com profile] toneyvr works Saturdays, but he helped me yesterday arvo with shifting the telly over. So our friends stepped up in a major way.

We got everything into the one truckload, so it took about 90 minutes to load it up, and 45 or so to unload it. We bought the boys lunch as thanks, then [livejournal.com profile] querrelle took the truck back. I went back to grab some more stuff from the old place (odd dishes, some hanging clothes, some food), and [livejournal.com profile] querrelle arrived and did some too. Then it was back to the new place to re-assemble furniture (bed, bookshelves, dining table) and put bits away. The 2nd bedroom/office is still piled with books, CDs and boxes, but the rest of the place is looking great: the bedroom suite fits perfectly.

But I'm knackered. and still have no appetite from whatver ails my stomach. Looking forward to a nice hot bath and DVD night with my one true love.

In my own move I forgot to congratulate you on your new home. Welcome home!

Congrats on the new home - that's fabulous!! May it provide many years of fun and happiness (which I have no doubt it will).

Now get better soon so you can properly celebrate the relocation!!

HA! No. I was coming in from a night of debauchery. I only noticed later that I forgot to record Francine who was a guest on a show about Swiss music in the 70s (featuring Krokus and the Pepe Leonhardt Band). That's ok. I really only watch those things by accident anyway. I happened to notice because I was looking for something to watch tonight - and I was on the wrong page of the TV guide.

Glad you're shifted in. Hope your guts get better soon. I know how debilitating it can be, trust me.

You are so much smarter than your neice.

I wasn't even finished packing on moving day, and we were shifting stuff from old houses to new house from 8am to 4am!

Didn't help that the new roommate's old house was an hour's drive away. (Times four trips.)

Anyway, congratulations on your organized move! Much love.

Honestly, not so hot.

I did have a fabulous visit with Nanny - she asked to see Dave's picture and told me he was okay, but I should take him for what he's worth and move on to the next one. Play the field, she told me!
