WOYWW 236 I'M GETTING THERE BUT BE WARNED...............

Centre table under construction

The place has been turned upside down, inside out and round and round, yep the space is a bomb site.  De De came and helped out the other day and nearly passed out in front of me, yep the furniture had got up and multiplied overnight, I don't know how that happened!  I really must talk to Ikea about that, they really are doing themselves a financial injustice.  We worked and worked and she slaved and slaved.  The main room was torn apart, old furniture was bashed up and all our enemies are now bruised, coz we took it out on the furniture and it was all their fault. LOL

My hand with blister forming too

De De's Hands blister forming on left hand

New table took some assembling we ended up with blood sore hands with blisters on, gosh I didn't even know I had one until it was stinging like the hell had beaten down on my hands and life was getting unbearable.

Total mess

We were working so hard that we didn't eat lunch until after 3.30 pm, De was wilting away in front of me, at one stage I thought she was going to eat the new furniture.  Her appetite these days has had to undergo a massive change and timber is now on the list of consumable foods. She can't have wheat or gluten so timber seems an average alternative, only joking girlfriend. We did have a beautiful gluten free healthy late lunch. To tell you the truth, De had two helpings because she woofed the first one down in one gulp, told you furniture was an alternative and with it breeding, I honestly think she had her eyes on it too.  LOL

George doing inspection 

With one main table across the window assembled and in place, with many changes in where which cupboard should go and the construction of new stuff we really did make inroads.  Still have S..t everywhere, yep, including a vacuum cleaner. The rest of the house looks like a bomb site but hey it's getting there with the help of BF, she is a honey and my DD she is a blessing.

George my dads cat is visiting for a few days and decided to give his inspection of the room, he was not impressed with the mess and couldn't push it off the desk onto the floor to give himself space to sleep.  I think the only thing in the room that has not changed is LLJ bunting that was hung before the change around, mind you it is staying right where it is too.

Still loads of work to do to get things put away and sorted but hey I will get there.  De is over again tomorrow so heavens only knows what will be accomplished then.  Hey I am sure we could conquer the world if we set our minds to it.

Yoda hiding under table and not happy

I don't think Yoda is too happy with what is happening around the house.  He has started being a naughty boy again and he is unsettled and sticking close to mum.    I didn't consider that this might affect him in this way, just goes to show how disturbing his life must of been before.  He will be fine I am sure in time.

Room getting there still needs more sorting

So below is a shot of the room from a different angle and nothing like it is going to be when finished, I have been working my buns off to try and get things done, but a few curve balls have been thrown at me.  I have had Christmas hampers to be packed at the charity group and then they needed distribution, so trekking back and forwards from there everyday before the business day starts and staying until closing. I have not been having the full time necessary to get the office sorted. Oh and if you are wondering no I did not pack or lift one of them, I supervised it all LOL.

Loads of other stuff had to be sorted, DD had enrollment today and fees had to be done for next year at Uni, that took longer than necessary but hey I don't care she is in and has her student pass/Id her supplies are ordered, so we are happy here.  With all of that accomplished, the office can wait another few days to be finished.


Sorry about the long post, really don't know how to write a short one considering all I have accomplished this week.  To all that visit I thank you so much, I will return the honor.  To Julia who hosts the WOYWW blog desk hop, thank you.  Want to know more about it then go here.

I got told to post this week regardless because you all wanted to see what I was up to.  I nearly didn't because of time, but De convinced me to make time.  Next week on Tuesday I turn 50 so I want my office completed by then.

Hugs to you all and thanks for looking and happy crafting.

Eliza & Yoda
