The List

As One mentioned yesterday, the list is alive and well. Plenty of progress has been made, mainly because its a fun list rather than a list of jobs that need to be done which aren't so much fun.

Yesterday it was a trip to no other store than....David Jones

The lovely Maureen helped out to no end and away with sheets, doona, doona cover, matress protector, towels, pillow cases we walked.

So the remaining items on the list are the BBQ, headboard, stereo, floorboards and a carport!

Shelving (finally)

One has been contemplating, for quite some time, how best to store cookbooks and miscellaneous kitchen paraphanalia.

Shelving was the preferred option however finding a simple shelf is quite the ordeal. Battling the crowds in various storage warehouses and shops in the scorching heat led to these little fellas.

Now its just a decision about what to put and where...

Blind-tastic!

Today one got blindtastic and the new blinds were installed in the living and dining rooms. They look pretty terrific and are a 55mm wider style of horizontal blind which look terrific if one says so himself.

One thinks the pictures speak for themselves so that is all.

It comes around but once a year

So this weekend, like many others one was quite excited by the prospect of a long weekend! And like many home owners, one made a special trip to the big Bunnings in Innaloo, some call it a cultural experiment, some call it taking one's life into one's own hands, but I call it escaping the grand final!

So we hit up Bunnings, got a towel rail and a hand towel holder.

And so now the Bathroom looks a little like this:

Picture (Window) Perfect

So since this weekend got off to a cracking start one has been quite productive and here's some proof:

After:

Beautiful glossy, white window frames! They've hit one's bedroom and coming soon to a kitchen, bathroom and living room in a flat of one's own.

One step at a time

Tonight I met Jeff the tiler. Jeff is coming to tile my splashback on either Friday or Monday. Very exciting!
