It has to get worse to get better. The builders are back and our house is upside down. We don't have a living area. ALL our belongings are squashed into three bedrooms and there is dust and mess EVERYWHERE. There is an Aussie called Bruce (snigger! snigger!) with a jack hammer who is milling through floor tiles that used to be our entrance hall. There is Simon the builder who is plastering (or as they say over here: rendering) the TV lounge walls. There is Mark, Simon's helper, who is digging foundations for the new entrance hall and there is Travis the plumber restoring gas and water to my kitchen.
I am hiding out in Adam's/our bedroom sourcing doors and windows online and contemplating adding a shot of whiskey to my third, yes third, cup of coffee.
I think I may go and lie on Hugo's bed for a while and look at his wall and dream about an exotic holiday somewhere far away...

Oh my! It's all happening there! :) Great that you're taking 'before' photos so that you can compare later when it's looking gorgeous. xo
ReplyDeleteRenovations are always so hard - hang in there, it will soon be done. Hopefully will be more sorted before John and Viv arrive otherwise it will be chaos.
