So I had to work today and Richo was left to busy himself with our list of jobs to do…
I called in after work to measure up a space in the bathroom to put a vintage cupboard I have found and just love!! Anyway…. I was surprised to see he had done the vanity!! I can’t even tell you how happy I am with it. It has been a vision in my head for so long and finally it’s real!! Just had to share a peek…. It’s not finished but I think this week is going to be the most transforming!!

Another couple of weeks has passed and we are making steady progress at #theshed. The kitchen cabinets are almost all done and in place and the benchtops have been measured up! I am so happy with the design and can’t wait to show you the finished result!!

Doesn’t look very exciting right now but it will!!
ALL the floor tiles are finally done with just a bit of grouting to go. Richo has done such a good job with them, they look absolutely amazing and flow beautifully all the way through the house. Bathroom is waterproofed and the wall tiles have started in there… And the beginning of the vanity!

I should also note that we now have a proper toilet inside – there were a few hiccups with this but sorted out by our award winning apprentice plumber, Travis, without me having to worry about anything.
This weekend I have done lots of tidying up jobs and of course my amazing mum has helped me paint!
My boy Charlie and our friend Jamie have almost finished the front steps. Just the finishing touches to go.

It just gets better & better 😉 Before you know it we will be moving in!!!!!

I think it’s been a hard week this week … For me anyway. There just seems to have been a lot of “side steps” and mess and not much in the way of progress. Richo & I have been very busy though and although it may not look like much has changed this week we are all set now for lots of changes next week. I think also when things feel a little messy around me my stress levels go up which makes me feel worse.

Lucky for me though I had my “A team” on hand helping this weekend with my big list of jobs that needed doing and everything got done!!

My mum and dad even got stuck into the yard and did a massive tidy up so now it almost looks like a proper house!

Steve got stuck into the kitchen cabinets and they are just about all done now. It looks so lovely. I will be able to get the stone people in to measure up this week now!

Next week will be HUGE! The garage door will be fitted, kitchen finished off, and we will make a good start on the bathroom. Maybe even lay the timber floors upstairs! I will have to juggle it in around work this week which will be tricky.
Anyway… We have finished the week really well … And that is definite PROGRESS!!

Today I am struggling. I am tired and dirty. I need to get my hair done and my eyebrows sorted out. I feel nothing like me!
I am surrounded by mess and chaos and mountains of work to be done and I feel totally overwhelmed. I feel like it’s never going to end….
But it is. And it will be worth every bit of effort. Tomorrow will feel better I’m sure 😉
