kribbanHave moved.
First post.
I don't really like talking about it much, but the movers were very good. They moved everything in 5 1/2 hrs and it cost 5410 SEK. Malin got our desks up with our computers and internet running, and I managed to put the TV up and find the cables, DVD and VCR in the mass of boxes stacked to the ceiling in my new room. I got it up and running a minute before Law and Order: CI started.
We didn't sleep at all the night before. We were up packing until 3 am and then slept three hours together before we had to get up. The movers arrived 7 am sharp.
I hate the kitchen. I still feel vulnerable about it. I don't want to put my things on the shelves. :-(
It doesn't feel clean. There's a smell. We can get the oven and stove replaced for free but it may take six months they said. :-( I don't want to cook any thing on it...
They say if we want to get the horrible stuff I mentioned earlier fixed we have to do the carpentry ourselves.
Ansd there's a hole we might get fixed. As to the missing shelves the carpenter said that's something you have to accept when you live in a 20 year old flat!
I hate the kitchen. The floor there feels so dirty. And it's broken. And the cup boards are awful. It all smells and feels icky.
And the old tenants forgot to empty their storage room! So we have loads of their stuff in there!
There's a weird view outside my computer window. We'll try to buy blinds to put in it.
Malin is being really nice to me. I didn't sleep that well though we were in bed together for over ten hours. Malin snored but it was really nice to hold her. We're being very cuddly.
We've cleaned out the old apartment yesterday. It feels so weird to see it empty like that. Eerie. There is still stuff left to do there. I will go and do that today and Malin will carry stuff down to the storage room.
I really love that apartment. :`( Most of all I loved the kitchen. It was so cozy and clean and wonderful. I really need a great kitchen. We lived there for five years, can you believe that? My entire college education. So many memories. *cries*
I don't feel relaxed at all here. I kept thinking of the kitchen last night... I got a sort of attack of depression last night. It all felt so eerie and desolate and dirty.
Malin didn't buy a new floor so hers is shitty. Bleh... I'm so glad I bought a new floor for my room.
My room is spotless. The wallpaper is great, the floor is great, the ceiling is great - everything looks crisp and stylish and brand new. The hallway is also great. New floor and wall paper. Also, the living room in which I am writing this is perfect. The wooden floor was polished and filed and the terractotta wall paper looks really good. And of course the whole bath room us brand new.
We moved Douglas. :-(
We had him locked up in the bath room as we moved house and then later in the day we stuffed him in his cage and carried him over. He fought like crazy but calmed down as we let him out in the new flat. He ran away last night and we were terrified he had ran out of the apartment when I had opened the door! We called for him and bribed him with food but it was dead quiet. We searched for him everywhere. Finally we found him sitting behind some furniture in the dark of my room. He was aboslutely quiet. He got out sometime later in the night but then he disappeared again. He's being very asocial and silent. :-(
I feel rather vulnerable and weird. Not bad exactly, just weird. I've told Malin I want her to go into the kitchen for me.
I couldn't find my copy of GoF last night. And I haven't any printed out slash either, so I couldn't get any distraction. I need Gandalf and Frodo. FPF just seems "safer" than RPF right now, somehow. You know, the diversion of fantasy worlds.
I will go and buy breakfast now. Tomorrow at 2 am I am going to church and later we're having waffles with cream and jam since it's the Waffle/Virgin Mary day. Maybe we'll also get waffles at church?
Take care of yourselves.
