Whatever happened to Sunday being a day of rest? Did it count people that are renovating their homes when that plan was made? Paul and I are both well and truly sick of doing stuff in the house for what seems like forever. We look forward to the day we have a lounge and a lounge suite and can relax in front of the TV and just do nothing. And actually even when we had a completed house we never realy did that, but we can dream, right?
Today it was the grinding down of the concrete to get the floor ready for the tiles. We haven’t got much furniture and what we do have was under drop sheets. I didn’t imagine that much dust and it is everywhere. The kids and I evacuated outside and watched through the windows. Which was pretty much useless because the dust was so thick we couldn’t see in. Paul eventually opened the windows which created clouds of dust piling outside. It was so bad the neighbour came over to see if we were on fire.
But at least now we are ready for floor coverings. And after that comes a fireplace. Which is so good since this is the kind of weather we had in Pukekohe yesterday.
The kids played in the hail for an hour or two. It ended up in a large hail fight with the neighbour. We all loved it. The thunder and lightening and occasional torrential downpour was a great setting for where Paul & I went in the evening also. A friend was hosting a murder party so we found our best going-out-to-a-murder-party attire and off we went.
I was a mad dentist, we also have a cannibal, a fortune teller and poor Paul was Roger & Hammerstein. We were all given our roles before we went and can I say it was the BEST fun ever. And just for the record, despite the fact that I was accused several time of being a ruthless nasty deceitful killer, it wasn’t neccessarily me. :o)
I woke this morning (reluctantly, lol) to the BasicGrey newletter in my inbox. I had a layout in there, I’ll post it here so you can see it a little larger. It’s called two, three, four and it is using 2 scoops. Lucky two scoops has that teal colour. One day I’ll find a new fav but for now I’m incredibly happy with the teal. Surprisingly enough I’m working on a layout now that doesn’t use blue. Who would have thought?
Laters.
