Had problems with the foundation of Casa Collett a few years back, got it taken care of. The problem was, the previous occupants of the house put the dry wall up with the uneven foundation, so when it was jacked up, some of the walls came down. The problem with fixing those walls is I have so much stuff (sad to say one room looked like someone dropped a comic shop in it) that I couldn't get to the walls to tear down what was left and put up new walls.
Recently the floor gave out along one of the interior walls, causing it to go down at an angle. My dad and I tried to jack it back up and put blocks under it, but the problem was that the slats for the floors weren't going back into the beam.
Yesterday, he came over with someone who said they could fix it, but needed space next to that wall cleaned out by this weekend. Fortunately, the wife was off yesterday and got a lot of the books stacked up in front of the bookshelves before I got home. Even coming off a typical hard Monday, I managed to get the computer stuff and desk moved in the Archive Room (the aforementioned comic shop dump :{ ) and started getting some of the stuff away from the other wall. Also cleaned out the bookshelves and CDs and junk in the living room. It was more than I planned, as I was wanting to get the groundwork down to get everything put someplace. The incentive is to get as much done as possible by Friday my next day off, because 1) what isn't done by then needs to be done that day, and 2) I'd still like to see Batman Begins.
Well, it could be worse. Nothing is damaged, I don't have to pay for it fortunately, but there's still a lot of work to go. After fixing the floor, I need to look at getting the rest of the Archive Room cleaned out. Then see about putting up walls and painting them. Next comes getting bookshelves to put those stacks of books in and fixing up the room. After that's done comes fixing up the living room walls. I do not look forward to having to move the Entertainment Center and items therein. Hopefully we can do it before the annual New Earth Festival in late September which is the big event that for years we had to get things cleaned up for the company coming in. And that should help with the heating bills this winter. But it's so overwhelming, that's why it hasn't been done before.
