We're so bloody close to having a fully refurbished kitchen.
It's driving me nuts. I keep wandering around, drinking too much tea and telling Stu I love him - like that'll make him paint faster. I am dying to unwrap the new lights and blind and shelves. But there's nowhere safe to put them. The whole house (and workshop) is bursting with boxes. I just know that we will both feel so good once the kitchen has been completed. We've been in this house for a whole six months. Six months of chaos and dust. (If you've not been following it hasn't taken six months to do the kitchen. We had to wait for a complete re-wire and new plumbing / heating.) Of course - once the kitchen is done there's the rest of the house. But at least we'll be able to enjoy the calm in one room. And Stu will get the long-promised macaroons (we have far too many eggs and we're both sick of omelettes, scrambled egg and egg-fried rice). Next steps... So jumping ahead a couple of days - next on Stu's agenda is the attic bedroom. Which needs completely boarding out and skimming. That's before paint and carpet and furniture. So because that bedroom is next - I've ordered the bathroom tiles. And found the shower tray I want. And been agonising about the sink and taps.
