ONE REALLY BIG JOB DONE

 

Yesterday I wanted to make a start on the 'Heart Wall' in our bedroom.

But there was a big job that needed doing, before I could get on with the heart wall.

ABOVE:  I needed to sand the two places on that back wall, where we had taken a light and light switch out.

Lacy helped me haul the mattress, bedside drawers, etc, out of the room, giving me room to work.

The sanding went really well with my little orbital sander.

ABOVE:  There's the 'BEFORE' photos of that wall.

Once it's a bit lighter in our room, I will take the AFTER photos, so I can show you what colour I used, and how it looks now.

I am doing two walls in colour, and two in white.  I will do the two white walls once I've finished the coloured walls.  

Stew's job for today is to instal the drop down clothes line.  It's going to be much better to use than racks, and where we are putting it gets plenty of sunshine.

While he does that, I will get some washing on, then finish the second wall of colour in our bedroom.  

ABOVE: This one was taken last night, when the lighting wasn't that good.  The next one was taken this morning.

ABOVE: And there it is... and we are both very happy with the colour.

I'm not going to finish the second wall today after all.  My arms are really sore.  It can wait for another day, I've got plenty of time to do it.

ABOVE:  I loathe asking him to do anything.  He hates jobs.  And they are always more complicated than one expects.  But there he is, putting together the clothes line.  And the washing is in the dryer, as it's an iffy day weather wise, so I can't even use the clothes line today. 😖😕😓

ABOVE: We have paused for lunch. Gone to a new Kebab shop a couple of suburbs over from home. Stews been here once already, and said it was OK. So now I get to try it as well. 

ABOVE:  WOW!  That Kebab was even BETTER than our usual one.  Solid 10 outta 10.  We could not fault it.  I could not finish mine, or the chips.  Very, very filling.

After lunch, I took Stew to look at 'something' I had my eye on.  

ABOVE:  I bought it.  Now all we have to do is figure out where to put it!

It will be delivered in a few days time.

Late this afternoon Stew finished installing the clothes line, and I promptly hung stuff on it.

I'll show you tomorrow.

Now, we have just sussed out possible locations for the new water feature.  We will consider them all over the next few days.

End of the day... just been watching docos on YouTube... time to sign off for today.

Catch ya tomorrow.
