Well, today was an extremely busy day for us. As I mentioned before the new carpet was laid down and a new replacement refrigerator was delivered. This all sound very simple but the peripheral work involved is enormous.
First we had to clean out the living room including furniture and small things for the carpet people. They moved a few things but the majority was our job. That's when I realized how much stuff was there. But we did it well. The carpet came, the old one was removed and the new one was laid down. Naturally in the process tons and tons of dust was generated that we had to clean up afterwards.
Shortly before the carpet arrived the new fridge was also delivered. Again, why should things go easy when they can be complicated?
It turned out that the fridge was just a tad wider than the door. Even a shoehorn couldn't help that thing through. But my girlfriend had the common sense and came up with a solution. We removed the doors and that way it fitted through. But that was more work that we had to do.
Finally we pushed it to its place moved the food over from the old one and took the old fridge out to the hallway for the handyman to remove it. Now it stands in its glory, filled to the top with good stuff.
Then started cleaning the apartment before putting everything back in its place. Now that we are done everything look very nice. The fact that we are both dead tired is par for the course.
I still have to lay the kitchen floor!
