That looks phenomenal. Is that for the Skye house?

lucielle

Yes its for Skye.  Didn't get chance to do anymore buying yesterday.  Still waiting for a sales person to contact me re a cabinet I requested info on.
Went to DS1s last night armed with a chinese takeaway.  Its his birthday on Saturday (my babys going to be 26!!!!  How did that happen?)  went last night because DD2 is away for 2 weeks night lambing and leaves today.  Managed to lose 1/4LB not great but considering last night I'll take it.

Managed to get the Skye house painted for £1800 we provide the paint, which is up there.  Can't wait for it to be done.

Absolutely shattered and heading for bed.  In work for 5.30 this morning and posted 270 parcels including what I got done on Saturday.

Trying to keep the momentum going for the bathroom and bought these tonight

Waiting for some answers to some questions on the bath and loos.

It wasn't until yesterday that I remembered today was a bank holiday.  Steady day at work and too manic.  Having a takeaway for tea so no need to cook.
Sink and towel rail have been delivered.  Bath is arriving at the shop tomorrow and we'll bring it home on the trailer.  Still to arrive is the loo and bath taps.  we've decided to buy the shower, floor tiles, wet wall, lights and underfloor heating when we're up there.
House is currently getting a coat of paint and is looking so much better.  Really glad we decided to get it done.

4 more payments to go on the working family tax and then its paid off.

Good news on the tax credits.
That will fly in.
Bathroom taking shape & good news on the painting

Bathroom items look absolutely fabulous. You are setting a beautifully high standard with those purchases. Definite wow factor.

lucielle

Thanks SH.  The bath has been delivered as well.  Just talking to some people up north and they said as long as we inform the local police we're going up to do maintenance we should be ok to drop it off.  Trying to plan when we can get it up there as we're in our busy season at work.  Still waiting to have the loo delivered.

OH is off for his jab today, going to a Nightingale centre, different from where I went.  Might nab a cheeky KFC on the way home

Hope DH is feeling okay after the jab. If you go up with the bathroom stuff you'll get to see the french doors too.

He was pretty rough for a couple of days.  I went into work on Bank Holiday Monday to get some parcels away and I'm glad I did.  By the time the post was collected on Tuesday night we'd packed and posted 575 since it was collected on Thursday night.  Then we parcelled up another 95 to try and get on top of it.  Tuesday was a long day and I was glad to see my bed.

The loo has been delivered so hoping to go up a week today.  I'm praying we can get it all in the pick-up then we don't have to take the trailer.  I'm useless at driving with the trailer on (it is 16 foot) so it would mean OH did all the driving.
