Clean underwear

Ha!  You probably think that we have had a major disaster!  The analogy for today is that of clean new underwear.  No one sees it but it adds great feelings of support, and freshness.  It does not need to be sexy.

Believe me, the mess we entailed in our downstairs bathroom was a result of this.  It went on for three days and  there were times when I did think clean underwear would be in order.  We needed serious plumbing in order to have the ensuite where it is.   Next step will be to cut off the electricity, therefore no cooking or sewing.  Oh dear, I have to spend the day shopping.

The weather this week has been on and off sunshine and showers.  On Friday J and Ronnie were up on the roof putting on fascias and preparing the roof for the roofing guys.  We started out beautiful and sunny, warm, then a real dump of rain which the boys valiantly worked through in order to make the roof waterproof again.  Because we are not getting a good run of dry, we are unable to get the decking on which impedes the installation of the patio doors.

Notice the tree in bloom, just barely.  This is the tree in the back yard.  The supporting beams for the back patio are just in front of it.

We have had some discussion about being certifiably crazy.  There is only one wall in the entire house that has been untouched.  J is pleased with the progress.  The week ahead will continue rainy, sunny, windy etc. so we will probably work away at the underpinnings.
