DIY and other miscellaneous blues...

Hi folks...the time has come when I really should be getting my DIY head on again but I can't seem to gee my ginger in that department...after a week and a bit of handing over the reins to my hunky joiners with the house filled with the sounds of hammering clattering and lots of chatter...they've gone and it's so quiet but before I descend into a doom and gloom rant...I have to say I'm loving my new flooring...



but there's still oodles to do before I feel I'm no longer living on a building site...6 doors...frames and what feels like miles of skirting boards to paint...better stock up on the masking tape then...along with a crafty list of War & Peace proportions...right this minute I'm thinking I may just join my Furry Partner at that clinic he's thinking of booking himself into.
I know Rome wasn't built in a day and there's light at the end of every tunnel but I can't help but be sorely tempted to go down the "does anybody know a good painter and decorator" route and the "tearing my hair out" technology saga reared it's head again...I think the fault lies with Mr BT and a "may be on the way out" Home Hub...all seems to be well after resetting it...for the moment that is but I'm taking no chances...I'm off to speak to the nice man at BT about a replacement...mind you the thought of moving units in the cubbyhole to connect up a new one isn't exactly filling me with joy either but enough of the Moaning Minnie tales of woe...time to put my happy "all's well with the world" face on...forget about DIY...technology and crafty lists and go kick up my heels with the Friday girls...now there's a thought...I wonder if they would be up for a painting party in exchange for a free lunch.
Have fun whatever you've got planned and I'll see you all tomorrow
Hugs Kath xxx
