Things happen, life fills up the days

Since I last wrote life has been rather hectic, but we have managed to do some work, and change the IKEA cabinet a bit - more narrow drawers and a splendid black tile to go on the top.  Can't believe that it took almost three weeks to eventually get it together how we wanted.  Anyway, working well for us now.

now with right configuration of drawers

Also, I have cut the curtains, need to make them up next, so hope to do some of that today.

Over the past week and the weekend we have put up the white corners, and infilled above the small windows which had been lowered, leaving a gap above them.  They now have insulation and a metal plate well secured with Puraflex 25.  We also used this to put up the white corners and seal them.

Another step nearer to completion.  We are just waiting for some timber to be sized correctly and we can put up the corner posts to each of the big windows, kitchen, bedroom and sitting room.  Maybe the actual building will be complete by the end of this month!!!!!!

Delays due to illness have put us back on the level entrance which we are having at the kitchen door.  Investigating some other people who might be able to do it for us.  That also means the paving for the garden and front door entrance is delayed too.  Hopefully we can get this underway soon.

The IKEA cabinet finished today, 2nd August!!!!!

Well, the cabinet is finally complete and about to be attached to the wall!!!!  A few minor adjustments to the "kit" and some head scratching over the images, but it is now done - just the swearing as we attach it to the wall, and then, yippee, somewhere to put the cutlery.

Phew.

I have also been cutting the curtains and making a pattern for a cover for the new chair..... so not been slacking.
