Getting the nursery ready

I checked the weather forecast yesterday and it said heavy rain so I took Dewey 2 out of retirement, much to the chagrin of Dewey 1. This morning though, the sun was shining. It was a perfect autumnal setting for a nice commute to Richmond. However I decided that my knees needed a rest and only went as far as Waterloo. I got into work at a very respectable 7.45am.

This weekend was another mammoth DIY-fest. Jake was again despatched to Granny’s house while I started work on Jake’s old room, soon to be Mia’s new room.

Chores completed:

  • Installed new bulb for the outside security light
  • Cleared out the room
  • Removed the blackout blind
  • Sanded all woodwork
  • Sugarsoaped the walls
  • Filled holes
  • Vacuumed and dusted
  • Painted walls

I made a start on the skirting boards but then my boy arrived so I stopped :-). Jake arrived from Granny’s very happy and brandishing a really flash-looking light sabre. He had been to the fun-fair and also to see the fireworks at Littlehampton.

This week I shall really try to do an hour each night. I think I should be able to finish the skirting tonight.
