LET'S FREAKING WELL DO IT

 


I said to Stew last night, while we seemed to be busy all day yesterday, NONE of the things to do at the house got done!

YES, we found a chair for the bathroom, and a shower caddy, but they were not actually on the list.

So this morning we are going to endeavour to get a few of those things done.

Which are:

- Lift our headboard up a bit.

-  Put the curtain hold backs on the window frames.

- Get the weather vane's pole cemented into the pot.

- Attach the blue glass 'totem pole' to the fence.

- Hang the boat house hook thingee in the bathroom.

- Fold up the huge tarpaulin, and get it into a garden bag for disposal.

- Attach the big, square metal 'clock' to the brick wall, by the front door.

See?  Not that much to do.  In reality, if we get even half of that done I'll be happy.

We will be going out for lunch, it's pretty much a standard weekend thing for us now.  It's something we really enjoy.  Just like a date in a way.  It's nice.


Oh yeah, at some stage today I gotta shave me legs.  I'd win any contest for longest shin hair right about now. Ain't pretty. Not at all. 😂😅😉

ABOVE:  It's 10.30 and Stew is bemoaning the fact that ANY JOB I give him is not straight forward!  The headboard raising is turning out to be a bit of a mission.
But, I'm sure he will win in the end.

ABOVE: It is a cold, foggy, ikkk day.  Best to be inside for sure.

ABOVE: In between doing housework, I'm sewing.  My new sewing space is working well I must say.

    I 100% understand and relate. If I run errands that don’t actually pan out, it really depresses me. I like to be productive. Love your very specific list for today.

  4. How are you actually going to DO this cement project? Do you use that just add water concrete? do you have to mix it? This seems messy.

    1. We are using bags of 'ready mix', where you just add water and stir. It's not messy at all.
