Update
Stumbling along. Trying to work more hours, thus pay check will cover bills. Can't sort out new tenant til reno complete and building inspection done.
My craft room/office is mostly done, shelves are up, walls painted and laminate floor down. A fabric store is closing in nearby big town, major discounts, so I've bought fabric to make window coverings. Most necessary as the window face south and east.
The other part of the renovations will be completed as my funds allow. To pass inspection, the drywall must be completed and primed. The outside walls need siding. As the weather is good now, we will be getting the siding done, it has to be painted first due to being on the second floor, (first floor in UK) scaffolding will be involved. On the wet days, dear brother will finish the remaining drywall.
I've been doing some sewing, it's nice to have room to leave in progress items on the table til can get back to them. My fabric, notions etc are all accessible without having to hunt thru umpteen boxes.
Must get my work paperwork sorted in the morning. I tidied all my nursing supplies, cleared the car this evening. Still need to tidy the kitchen and put the dishwasher on before bed.
Listening to Three Men in a Boat, to Say Nothing of the Dog. Most amusing. Found it after reading references to it by Connie Willis' in his book, To Say Nothing of the Dog, which I loved.
Happy Birthday to Bronze Ribbons, Mesulin, and Dreamy Dragon.
