changes

Seem to be coming out of the darker space that has been a bit consuming of late. With regard to moving here is some news about what we have been up to. Work has been happening on the house! the attic room has been split into two rooms, rather splendid they are too and the occupants, Jem and Sam, seem really pleased to have some personal space back again. All of the downstairs floors and all thirty six stairs and hall and landings have had their floors stripped. Norah and I spent a couple of days removing laminate flooring from the downstairs, and the very manky smelly carpet from the hall and stairs has gone, the floors, back to their original glory look amazing, we are so pleased with them. The garden is looking wonderful, full of flowers, post coming about the garden, it was a lot of work but so worth it. The extra bathroom has gone and a wall has been relocated to make a bedroom for Callum and a study for me, which I am very excited about. I have been missing my books and bits and pieces, it will be so nice to have them out again, I plan on having both rooms decorated and finished in a couple of weeks! We have opened up the fireplace in the back room and bought a fantastic tiled one from ebay, how I love ebay. Installed a shower in the bathroom and removed one from what is now the utility room. Our two rooms downstairs had french doors connecting them, these are now gone and the ceilings are now flat, I am not a fan of artex! We have also had tons of plumbing work done, radiators moved and installed, plus lots of random electrical jobs! Wardrobes are due to be made and fitted in our bedroom next week, hurray no more cardboard boxes and hardly any clothes, and I am really hoping the budget stretches to a new kitchen, Im on the look out for old kitchen cupboards, watching one on ebay, have the plans, just hope I have the means lol! Please excuse my lack of punctuation, my laptop has died and I am using an old Scandanavian one from Adrians work, the keys dont do what the keys say they should do! On a happy note Miss N turned 3! three! I cant believe she has been in my life so long, She is amazing! I will post about her birthday and include some photos soon.
