I call my girlfriend Hinges because she's something to adore. Bad humour I know but I'm tired after the week's work and now its back to the bedroom renovation.
I've now undercoated and have to top coat before we have new carpet laid in two weeks.
Sue is helping with preparing the doors and then painting them - great job Sue.
Somewhere in my sub-concious this song by Steve and the Board came to mind with the work Sue was doing and I have to say that she really is someone to adore.

It's going to be a busy weekend.
I'm sure Sue must feel wonderfully appreciated, and I'm equally sure she appreciates you in return.
ReplyDeleteLaughed at the door joke. I'm a renovator from 'way back but can't do the work any more, and my husband doesn't see the need. So I watch the Home and Garden Channel and admire other women's husbands' skill with power tools and building supplies!

Kay,
DeleteSue also finds certain jobs difficult with her RA but cooking is still a doable passion for her.
Just think how nice it will be when you can sit back relax and enjoy it all when finished :-) Enjoy the weekend even if you are working at home. Diane
ReplyDeleteThird try at proving I am not a robot!!!!!
Diane,
DeleteI'm noy sure that renovating or redecorating is ever finished but while I'm enjoying the results I'll keep progressing. As for being a Robot - isn't it a pain but we need to keep these spammers at bay.
The house will look so good, you might not want to move!
ReplyDeleteNadege - that may well be on the cards but we've been here 30 years and are empty nesters until December when both boys arrive back from overseas.
DeleteSomething smaller or even built to meet our retirement years would be nice.
I agree with you and am in the same boat! My son just left last week for college (Seattle). I have 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms in an almost 2,000 square foot home and I am all by myself now. I might stay here for few more years but at one point, will definitively scale down. I have no idea where I will move to. That is the big question. I could stay in Manhattan Beach but find a smaller place or move out of town, out of state. We shall see!
