HEADBOARD

 

THIS MORNING OUR NEW HEADBOARD IS ARRIVING.  And I still have not painted behind our bed.  I had hoped to have it done before the headboard arrived.  But oh well, it's not a big problem in the grand scheme of things.

The Gib Stop man is coming back after lunch to do a second coat of plaster.  Then I presume tomorrow he will come and sand it all.  After that, I can paint the room.

So, it looks like we won't have a functioning bathroom until next week at the earliest.  It isn't too bad not having a bathroom, but only due to being able to use the community centre here for our showers.

This morning I am going to put poly filla in the holes in our bedroom wall, and the lounge.  First step in re-painting the interior of the house.

ABOVE: The village maintenance men wasted no time in starting to take the shed apart!

They got the roof off late yesterday, and are coming back today to take the rest apart.  They are going to use it in their 'workshop' area, and are very happy to have it.

I'm just relieved the damn shed saga is over, and we can move on from it.

Right, I'm getting up and heading out to the mall.  I need to pick up me prescription and a few bits 'n' bobs.

Oh dear, another day where I forgot to update earlier.

So, I went out and managed to get my prescription, and some Hold Backs for the curtains.

I couldn't believe how expensive they were!

ABOVE:  I got the last 4 sets at Spotlight.  I would have liked 4 black sets, but oh well.  I will get Stew to instal them on the weekend.

On my way home, I called in to visit with Bex and the kids.  It's school holidays, so the boys were home.

ABOVE:  I cannot believe how spoilt Marley is!  There she is, all wrapped up in a baby blanket, on Archer's lap.

The gib stop man arrived early, so I had to hot foot it home earlier than expected.

He's now done for the day, coming back tomorrow to sand it all.

Dang, I just remembered I need to buy some new paint brushes.  I'll do that tomorrow I think.  

I have people here taking the shed apart...

ABOVE: And there ya go, the Village now has a beautiful wooden shed.

And in a few days our new Keter sheds will arrive, and most of the shed stuff can get the hell out of my 'sewing room', AKA the garage. 😌😊

ABOVE:  my ever changing view in the lounge.  *sigh*

Is the end in sight?  I bloody hope so.

It is now 2.10 pm, and I feel wrung out.  There's a few 'things' going on in the background that I'm not going to talk about on here... just know my stress levels are almost maxed out.  

I can't wait until all that's going on is over.

I had several months with not ONE headache.

Now?

Had one every day for about a week.

At least the shed issue is DONE and OVER WITH.

I'm so glad today is over.

It's been a right shitty day to be honest.

Too much going on for my brain.

I have just felt like crying on and off all day.

Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day.
