French Bread Day

Did you know? Did anybody know? French bread day. How bizarre.

Any way awe love French bread here so I think I may have to make some fresh homemade  soup when I get in from work and buy a couple of loaves of soft French bread.

 That's dinner sorted 

Happy International Day of Happiness

Well in honour of  International Day of Happiness I am going to try and be happy and positive all day.

This is what was done yesterday. Day 20 of the build.

Today they are getting on with building the conservatory

I need this today as I am feeling quite down with the house looking a mess. I know it will be worth it in the end, but the end seems far away. And because I work full time I seem to spend all my free time cleaning and trying to keep on top of this dust.

This is what I was saying to Geoff yesterday. But secretly i'm fed up of it.

24 year anniversary 

Today we have lived in our home for 24 years. My god I sit here and wonder where the years have gone, Our children were babies when we moved in.

I love this house most of the time. I like the feeling of space. Every room feels spacious with the high ceilings.

But at this minute it feels cold, drafty, dirty. dusty an cluttered.

This is my current view. All my plants are in here to save them choking on the dust.

I know we have to crack eggs to make an omelet, but I think we have enough now.


This is what they did yesterday. I know it doesn't look a lot but they don't stop all day long.

Steels in

Supporting wall for the steel built where the kitchen/dining room door used to be. this is now the back wall of my pantry.

Garden room wall starting to get built. Using the old war bricks.

Geoff has been snowed in as well today. We will probably strip the paper off the walls in the dining room.
