So it was totally pouring with rain on Saturday night when we passed, but this is what we saw as this week's progress:
(Obviously I wasn't getting out the car and getting knee deep into mud!)
Haven't heard from the supervisor as to what's been done this week, but I can see the walls have been smoothed out ready for painting, so that's a good start :)
I can't wait to see my kitchen finished. The house we're in now, although it works really well, has so much less storage space in the kitchen, so I'm really looking forward to my slow-close drawers!
I bought new saucepans this week FINALLY as we've been needing them for so long - don't know why I"m writing this part but gee it makes a difference to your cooking when you don't need to use oil in your teflon saucepans! And they're very sexy.
Mick is still trying to convince ME that we need the new coffee machine ... I think it's a waste of money - I'd rather not get it and use the one we have. And put that money towards a new fridge as the double door fridge I currently have is the last remaining whitegood from the relationship I had with the boys' dad... we want to get new ones but not straight away.
I think the architraves will be around the windows, which means that very soon I will have to think about window colours... oh dear, now i've forgotten about the colors of the carpets and tiles, and the walls, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO PICK!! Oh dear.
Perhaps I should just go wtih brown and be done with it ... but what if it's the wrong shade?? The house we're in now was so easy, all the shades matched perfectly - I'm really a bit concerned with this one as our paint colour that we wanted wasn't available and it's a totally different tone to the one that we have here ... and that's just really thrown me. I'm out of my comfort zone cos of the paint colour ... and I didn't want a brighter wall as such, I like the deep colour we have here - but I couldn't get one because the stupid builders wouldn't allow it ...
Oh well I may have to feature wall our rooms anyway. (Don't tell hubby but I have every intention of doing that anyway!)
My dork husband is checking out the slow-close cupboards to make sure that they are not slammable ...

The laundry cabinets - I'm excited about these :)
