Joys of a Sofa

I have had the most awesome day EVER!!!
It didn't start that way, I had a row with Three Mobile, balled my eyes out on how I had no money, then came the good parts! I bumped into my neighbor Jaz in town, and she cheered me up, A LOT!! We went food shopping and had a good laugh! Then I popped up to my friends Gemma's to grab the sofa, it was so funny, we couldnt work out how to get the sofa out of her flat, it was easy until we got to the stairs, we said it reminded us of Friends the TV show, and me and Gemma kept saying "Pivert, Pivert, PIVERT" then burst out laughing when it got stuck in the stairs, and said a hobo could live under it lol.
Her neighbour helped us get it down the stairs, then we got it across the road, we managed to get it into my block of flats and to the stairs, I started lifting it up, then Chris pushed it quicker than I thought, so I fell up the stairs and dropped the sofa, and it started sliding back down. I was laughing too much to pick the sofa back up, it looked like the sofa was chasing after him!! By the time I managed to pick it up again, we got it up, then it got stuck again, which set me into laughter again! My stairway is not tiny, but its awkward lol! We eventually managed to get it into the flat, then came our next problem, getting it through my living room door! My hallway is tiny and a lot more awkward! We tried everything we could think of, and all Chris could say is; "Get some lube!"
We laughed so much about that, because he kept saying it, it just got funnier each time!! We had to give up for the day as the sofa was just too big to fit through my living room door, so me and Chris went and got something to eat, as I was not able to enter my kitchen lol. Once we came back, we where doing what we usually do, and sit and chat about anything and everything, then he randomly come out with "I just thought of somthing we haven't tried!"
I just looked at him funny and was willing to try anything to get the massive sofa through the door at that point, so I listened what he suggested, and we did it, until it got stuck again! he got his wish of lube though! We got some washing up liquid, and put it on the fabric, it started to go through again, until it got stuck again, and thought about taking the door off its hindges to see if it would help, so I went to Jaz and asked her for one, so she come down, and we didn't need a screwdriver after all!! with the three of us we managed to get it through like a bar of soap!! We where so happy when the sofa was finally in the living room, we jumped on the sofa to celebrate!

I have decided though, if I decide to move, or get a new sofa, there is no way in hell that sofa will be able to leave in one piece, so we will tear it apart and use it for a bonfire!! Though I do plan to use that sofa for a good year or two before we do anything like that!!
I am increadably happy now, I have my sofa, soon I will be getting some shelves for my books and DVD's, plus a wardrobe, 2 tables and a computer desk!! Even my carpet will be fitted next week!! So things are moving along, and soon this flat will be my perfect little home :D

Told you there will be a happy blog soon ;)
Much love xx
