    Hi bella, how are you?

    So I finally got motivated and have the first colour coat on the bathroom walls. Will def need another one so will do that tomorrow morning - need another tin of paint first (was hoping would only need 1!). The edges are nowhere near as good as they should be but it's my best and is so much cheaper doing it myself! Then it's the wood to do... the worst and most fiddly bit of the whole room but will be worth it when it's done.

    Dressed in cleaner clothes now and put the dinner on - having a freezer meal today of chicken chargrills, potato lattices, peas and sweetcorn. Smells yummy can't wait!
    Life is all about the journey.

    *phew* I'm all caught up with comps (first time in 2 weeks!) & have managed to spend some time on Iwanna's advent thread, adding all the comps to my new Advent bookmark :D Oh boy! This is going to be one heck of a morning tomorrow morning :rotfl:

    No decs up here yet... will be putting them up tomorrow though and looking forward to it. OH has hoovered and dusted and cleaned the glass etc so I don't have to do that first... although I have had to promise I'll do the painting first! Ha ha!

    pp - your decoration photos on fb are so cool! I've also never seen anything like that Mickey door decoration before - it's brilliant! :) Aren't you scared it will get nicked? I'd hate to have something that gorgeous & then have it nicked!

    Was at a church thing in Royal Tunbridge Wells a few weeks back & some theiving beggar stole the gold Mickey ears from my car aerial! Now it had been on there for about 2 years, my manager bought it back from US for me as a pressie, car has been parked in some really dodgy places over the last 2 years BUT it gets nicked in a multi story car par in a quite nice area - go figure! :confused:

    Thing is the gold Mickey was how I used to find the car in the car park, it became the personality of my car ITMS, so I had to hunt around & found/bought a replacement for it on eBay :rotfl: now I'm scared to put it back on in case it gets nicked again :D
