LET IT RAIN

 

The day I've been waiting for ... my bathroom gets some colour.  Did I tell you what colour I chose?

MIGHT BE PALE BLUE.  Like seriously, is anyone even surprised? 😂😄😉

ABOVE:  I'm sure you are all sick to death of seeing my freakin 'almost' bathroom!  But tough titties... I like documenting the progress.

That's how it looked when the painter left yesterday.  Give it a few hours and we might have another photo... with COLOUR!

That dark thing on the wall is a set-in-the-wall cupboard, and it has two mirrored doors that go on the front.  Very old fashioned, but we love it.  They are so handy above the vanity.

So what am I doing today, besides watching the painter do his thing?

Five eighths of F all really.  I can hardly move in the house right now, which is really frustrating.  I need to get sewing asap, I have Scrappy Doll orders for the next Tamahere Market.  Luckily, it's still two weeks away, so I should be able to get some made in another week or so.... ONCE the sheds are assembled, and all that shed shit is out of my sewing space.  Here's hoping Stew can get them made Saturday or Sunday.

At the pub last night, I commented on a friend's GORGEOUS LONG FINGERNAILS.  She told me she takes Centrum Women 50+, and Berrocca every day, and she attributes that to having strong nails and hair that grows fast.

Well my hair grows fast, but me nails are hopeless. Soft and crack at the slightest knock.  So I'm gunna go and get me some Centrum and Berrocca.

And that is my grand plan for ... a couple of hours at least. 

Catch ya later.

8.45 am: waiting for the painter to arrive, so I can let him in.  Then I can go out and about.  Waiting......

And the man arrived, and I can now hear him rolling on the paint.  I am not going to look until it's finished.  

I spent some time tidying up and covering up things out the back, so they don't get wet.

  

ABOVE: it's a bit of a bugger having NOWHERE to store all the taller things now our shed is gone.

But oh well, up against our brick wall will have to suffice.  Shame it doesn't look as nice as our lovely wood shed.

ABOVE:  I am now sorting out all my mosaic tiles and glass domes... they were starting to be a right mess in the bottom of me mosaic box.  And the only place I have to do it?  On top of boxes. 😖😕😒

I am backtracking on getting those supplements for now.  I'm worried I will overdose myself with Magnesium or something else.  I already take a Multi-Vitamin and Magnesium daily.  I will ask my Doctor next time I see him if I should take anything else.

Better safe than sorry.

Lacy and Keera called in to visit.  We ended up going to Chartwell Square for a wander and lunch.

It was super busy there, but Lacy coped so well and didn't have an anxiety attack.

Once we arrived home, the painter had finished in the bathroom.  He had to put three coats of the blue on, as it is so light in colour, the sealer was showing through.

ABOVE:  I am very pleased with it, I didn't want a bright/loud blue in such a little room.  Once the white vanity and shower are in, and the black accents as well, I think it will all come together nicely.

The girls have gone home now, and it's back to just me and Coco.  We now have 3 days off having people here doing stuff.

We had a huge downpour this afternoon... so glad we have cancelled attending the Morrinsville Market tomorrow.

We can just enjoy the weekend, doing odd jobs instead.

8.52 pm:  Well... another Friday night in doors, watching telly.  Keeping warm.  Looking forward to bed.  Another day tomorrow, when we can actually SLEEP IN.

That will be bliss.
