Snow again today. I set out to get the train into work, but turned back halfway to the station. It was just to scary driving. Everytime I touched the brakes I skidded. So now, I am working from home again, and just praying that it STOPS snowing soon. Actually, its looking more hopeful. Earlier, it was settling and looking set to continue. Now, it is still snowing, but melting when it lands, and I THINK it looks like the stuff already down is thawing. I can see patches of green at least. So, despite the forecast, that it will get worse over next few days, I am hopeful that normal life may resume soon. Preferably tomorrow! I really could not face being snowed in again.
This weekend I have ordered a new bathroom. I am amazed! That I have actually managed to choose something, and that I have taken the irretrevable step of paying the deposit. I now need to wait for the fitters to contact me, to arrange a date to put it all in. I am hoping for before easter, but rather expecting it to be after. I dread the thought of the process. The house full of workmen ( bound to be men I fear) making much mess and noise, and being without bathing facilities for several days. But it must be done, and I hope it wilol be worth it. Not only that, but I have more or less chosen what I want in the kitchen, and am now awaiting the quote on that. Hopefully, I will order that as soon as the bathroom is in, with a view to having it fitted in june or july.......that will be a nightmare too. Still, I am determined to do these things. Even if it does make me feel as tho I may have a panic attack. Breathe in.....breathe out.......

You are sounding like Kate Winslet - breathe!! Well done on getting the bathroom ordered, now you just need to concentrate on how lovely it will be when it is done. Ditto the kitchen. You are very welcome to come here for a bath or shower while it is being done. I have two bathrooms so no problem on that score.
ReplyDeleteThe snow didn't settle round here at all so hopefully you will be ok tomorrow.
Oh, good for you on getting started on your renovation! I'm still just TALKING and DREAMING about mine. Try not to panic: short-term pain (all the mess and disruption) for long-term gain (brand new bathroom and kitchen). It certainly will all be fabulous in the end!
ReplyDeleteargh! It just ate my comment. Anyhoo. Hope you didn't get snowed in, and that your renovations go smoothly. If they don't, come to our house. Several days with small children will make you long for the sound of power drills severing your mains water supply, and all will be well.xx
ReplyDeleteMore snow here today so probably more with you too? Even I have had enough of it now!
ReplyDeleteWell done re the bathroom. Excellent news.
