WARDROBE

 Today Steve is coming over after breakfast to work on making my new 'wardrobe' in the spare bedroom.

We did some tentative planning last night.  

We are using a shelving/wardrobe system from Mitre 10.

It's called ELFA.

ABOVE:  What I love about this wardrobe system is it's versatility, and the many options you can choose.

I think we are gunna have fun getting it set up!

ABOVE: In the little bedroom I've got almost all my clothes!

I have taken all my clothes out of our walk in wardrobe, and dumped them on the floor in here.

Then there's what's still in my suitcases.  I've not bothered to even try to unpack all that yet.

It's gunna take me days to sort it all out. 

But once it's done, I should have a really good; all in the one room; wardrobe!

I really can't wait.

The last time I had something like this was in our home in Palmerston North, when I took over an entire bedroom for my 'wardrobe'.

I'm not quite doing that this time, I'm just using HALF a bedroom.  😊😉

So Steve and I will be going out to get all the bits 'n' bobs we need.

Then I will leave him to it.

Bex and I are going out later on for a 'girly hour or two'.  Just checking out a couple of shops.

I think you could say I'm making up for being locked up in a Hotel for two weeks!

The freedom has gone to my head.

 ONWARD...

12 noon:

And lots has been accomplished today.

Steve and I went to Mitre 10...

ABOVE:  And there he is, sussing out what we needed.  They had everything we wanted, so that was excellent.

ABOVE:  Another job done.  We gave Steve and Bex our very large BBQ setting, as it was far too big for our outdoor area.

ABOVE:  Bex cleaning up this area. We have kept a couple of the BBQ chairs for here. At some point in time we will get a small outdoor setting for this area.

5.36 pm:  AND... it's done!

It was a fairly straight forward job for Steve, it didn't even take him that long.

ABOVE:  Making a start...

ABOVE:  And there ya have it.  3 hours of sorting out all my clothes, putting some in a bag for the Op Shop, and putting all my winter jackets/sweatshirts and so on in the 'actual' wardrobe in this room.

Something tells me I really should not go clothes shopping for a very long time!

Some of those clothes have been sitting in a suitcase in my wardrobe for a LONG time... waiting for me to lose some weight so I'd fit them again.

And a lot of them do, JUST.  There's also a few that I need to lose another 10 kilos to fit, but it will happen.

I'm determined.

I am now utterly exhausted!  I have been so idle the past few weeks, apart from walking, it's catching up with me.

Time to relax, have a nice dinner (we are having chinese takeaways) and put me feet up.

8.33 pm:  Dinner was wonderful.  After dinner I continued unpacking my luggage.

Now?  Can't go any more, done in!

Catch ya tomorrow.
