I just got a notification from my phone to say that my screen time was down to 46 minutes a day last week so it reduced by 73% which is amazing:
I am not working out again as I am still moving garages but I have just had a mini workout pushing my motorbike up a hill to the new garage as it has a locked on brake so does not roll very well at all! I managed to muscle it up there but it was a struggle!
I have just ordered a ground anchor to lock the motorbike to and some ground bolts to bolt the bike rack to the floor so that I can lock the bikes to it when they aren’t being used so I will pick them up later today so that I can get the bikes all sorted in the new garage and the motorbike secured too.
I am now getting back to moving garages as I need to get it done today as I am back to work tomorrow so need to get it done as I have to return the keys tomorrow lunchtime and I have to get all the recycling in the car by 3pm to get to the tip by 15:30 as I have booked the 15:30-15:45 slot today.
So I have done better than I thought and I have got everything out of the old garage and into the new one and also put all of the stuff for the Recycling centre in the car as well. I just have the empty boxes to move and then I need to sort out the garage properly as I only have one set of shelves in there at the moment and I need a couple more to get the garage organised! I am just sorting this out and then I will get the garage organised. I also want to move the shelves out of my coat cupboard and the spare parts bins that are on them into the garage as well to free up space in the coat cupboard as it is full to bursting at the moment.
It is looking like there may be enough free space in the garage after it is organised to work on bikes so I will take the work-stand out there too to get that out of the way. The link pliers will arrive this afternoon between 15:30 and 18:30 so this evening I can finish off building the GT ready to ride tomorrow. As well as sort the lounge so that I can get the smart trainer setup and use that in the morning too! I am currently trying to find the paintbrushes that I bought so that I can paint the chest of draws that will be in the lounge to put the TV on I know that I put them in one of the boxes that went into the garage but I can’t remember which box so they may be lost forever in the garage 🤣
In the end I bought a new set of cheap brushes from the cheap shop as I had to go to the post office to pay some money in anyway so I was walking past the shop. At lunch time I took a break from moving garages and gave the chest of draws a coat of paint using the new brushes and the matt grey paint that I bought before xmas to paint my chest of draws from my bedroom with. I am using the draws from the garage as a test before painting the chest of draws from my bedroom but they are looking pretty good so I am going to do the set from the bedroom this weekend then I can get everything finished in the flat.
After I had painted the chest of draws I cracked on with the garage move and got everything that needed moving except the empty boxes into the new garage and then filled the car with the stuff that I was taking to the tip and then I swept out the garage before it was time to go to the tip. I got in and out of the tip really quickly as I arrived 5 minutes early so I got out again by my appointment time of 15:30 and headed to Screwfix and picked up the anchor for the motorbike chain that I had ordered earlier. I then went home and parked the car in front of the old garage and did 3 car loads of empty boxes and then went back and got my dad’s sack trucks as they were dumped in the old garage as they have a broken wheel so are no use in their current state. The sack trucks are still in the car as I am going to my parents house on Friday so I will drop it off then.
I am currently waiting for the Amazon driver to deliver my link pliers so that I can finish setting up the GT so that I can take it for a test ride in the morning. Once that is done I am going to take a well earned rest until 21:00 when I will give the chest of draws their final coat of paint and then go to sleep.
I have managed to do over 10000 steps today and its only 17:30 so I have been super active today.
