Jan. 24th, 2015 02:33 pmThe new stairs, landing and bedroom carpet is down and looking fantastic. It's so soft and springy to walk on and has that lovely carpet thing where when you hoover stripes are left behind. It's worth every penny, and man, the fitters worked for their money to get it down, especially on the staircase. Corey and James had unscrewed the stair-lift the night before, but when the fitters came they found they still couldn't get the carpet under the track, so the stair-lift ended up propped on bricks at the bottom and a tool-chest at the top as the fitter carefully fitted each tread so it was perfect.
In all it took them about 3 hours which was excellent going considering the issues they had. Then once they left all the furniture needed to be taken back into the bedroom. It all got done that afternoon, but by the night it felt like every bone and muscle in my body was aching. I was so ready for a hot bath.
Anyway, some pictures behind ( here )
We also had new lino put down in the downstairs toilet but I'll spare you that picture.
To bring the doctor's thing to an end. I realised I couldn't make the appointment they'd given me so went down to change it in person. As it was dinner time, between the morning and afternoon sessions, there was only the receptionist there, no one actually waiting to see a doctor. While talking to the receptionist one of my doctors came to the desk and looked at the results there and then. Seems both blood tests were borderline under-active but not enough she wants to prescribe anything yet, so it's just a case of going back in three months to be tested again. Now why the couldn't say that on the phone I don't know. But yeah, everything is fine for that it seems.
