NEW WEEK....

 

Today I am going to start working on a couple of new Braid Runners.

NOT because I need any, but because I need something to keep me distracted.

And I do love making them still... so it's a win win really.

ABOVE:  I have laid out these two, using the gorgeous Teal/Blue/Green combinations.

I've sold quite a few in this combination lately, so having a couple more won't go amiss.

And that is about all I have for now... I'll pop back later.

11 am.

And it's been a very busy morning.

I didn't tell you before, because I didn't want to get stressed out.

But we had a building inspection done today.

First thing worth noting, the builders (husband and wife) had done the inspection on our Cambridge home, and remembered me.  I'm hard to forget, let's get real!

They did the inspection and only found a door that was a bit sticky, and is a super easy fix.  And we need to put some waterproof sealant along the back of both new vanities. Something we hadn't done as I'd intended putting tiles along the back, but never did. Again, a super easy fix, will take us all of 5 minutes!

The buyer (the wife) came around too.  Which was bloody neat as I got to show her how to use the induction cooktop, which she absolutely LOVES.  Also the double oven, which she also loves.  Plus we went through and I pointed out lots of other things she needed to know.

Here's something hysterical to tell you.  The lady builder saw my runners and said she would love one for her beach house.  So I hauled out one of the large fish runners.  She bought it on the spot!!!

So I kept it on the kitchen bench while they kept doing their inspection.

The buyer saw the fish runner, and immediately said "I want one of those too!"  So as luck would have it, I had one left.  She bought it on the spot too!   

OH she has also bought the queen size bed in our front bedroom!  One less thing I have to try and sell before we leave here.

She wanted to buy our blue leather lounge suite too, but I had to tell her we were keeping that. lol

I love selling shit without even having to leave home!!!  

I cannot tell you how RELIEVED I am that the house passed it's inspection.  It has been stressing me out for so long now.

ABOVE:  Our buyer insisted on a photo with me and the runner.  She also did a 10 minute video of the house to send home to her parents.  They are very excited about the house as well.

I am so happy that our buyers are in love with our home. They truly appreciate and love all that we have done to make it special. 

I am almost 100% certain this home sale will go unconditional on Friday now.

Maybe I can stop stress eating now!

3 pm:  Gosh today has flown by already.  After lunch I went to Chartwell Square and bought some more summer length tights... I have pretty much killed the two pair I've been wearing all summer!

I also got some new t-shirts, cos again, I'd killed most of my current ones, one way or another.

Note to self, DON'T paint in ya good shirts!

After that, I visited Lacy and her little kitty cat for a while.

ABOVE: As you can see, both are thriving and happy.

Now that I'm home again, I'm going to try and just relax for a while.  I have been SO stressed out lately, it's a wonder I'm not totally grey haired as a result.  Thank god for hair dye eh?  😂

ABOVE:  Happy to say I actually got some work done today.  I really love this colour combo.  This one is a really good size for a coffee table.

I'm going to make another one very similar to it tomorrow.

8.52 pm:  Time to sign off for the day.  What a day it's been, so positive for a change.  Hopefully by Friday we will have a SOLD sign on our billboard out the front!

I'm praying for a decent night's sleep tonight, cos OMG I've not been sleeping well at all.

Catch ya tomorrow.
