Yes we are still diy-ing
By "we" I obviously mean my good husband
I haven't just sat around doing nothing though... I have acted as a weight, I've carried, made tea, and made coffee, provided lots of witty comments, stuck felt pads onto our furniture and I even cut a piece of underlay. I'm extraordinarily helpful.

~ I was very very sad to have finished one of the best books I've ever read.
~ I watched Lolita. Jeremy Irons is absolutely compelling even as Humbert.
~ England won the second Ashes test match at Lords! And I was there! Fantastic!By "we" I obviously mean my good husband

~ Mr B had to do an intensive cricket-refresher-session with me over the weekend to prepare for Lords. I now know what a Michelle is {Michelle Pfeiffer is cockney rhyming slang for "five for"!}
~ I fell from a 17.3 hand chesnut beauty called Rowan in the Great Park! I have a blue elbow and blue knee! Really could have done without that, especially when called upon to co-lift heavy furniture.
~ I met up with friends, had breakfast out, got a little sunshine on my arms and took my new toy out for a play
~ We've decided to go for the green/grey colour!! It didn't come up well in the photo below - in reality it's lovely, neutral and fresh.
Coming soon

Green gray sounds good...my pc doesn't have the best resolution if you know what I mean...I'm a Pc not a Mac!

P.s. Thank you!
When we moved I was 9 months pregnant. Needless to say I did a lot of "supervising." Can't wait to see the pics!
ReplyDeleteoooo i love diy! my boyfriend is so NOT the home-improvement type, so when the time comes for us to get a home, i have a feeling that those responsibilities will rest on me (or someone hired...)
ReplyDeleteanyway, good luck with the rest of your home makeover, i can't wait to see the finished product!
You fell from a 17.3 hand horse?! What a fall! Do you ride often? What do you do?
ReplyDeleteI ride, too. I train for 3-day Eventing, I love to jump, but also trail ride through the Arizona desert. I love horses!
