hand in glove {renov #5}





23/08/10 - many hands have been inside these gloves, rushed through my mind this morning, early morning, as i was awaiting the electrician man to whizz me 'round the house for the position of all those light switches and buttons. in the meantime we are down to five and a half chimneys that need to come down still. there's light, at the end of the tunnel, they say. there. i just switched that a one on!




in between labour, laughter and rhyme, l. and i poured over the newly born russels. no, not at my place.



l. grafting, me taking the picture in the sudden realisation i had not been taking pictures of the stages.... sorry for the extreme poor quality. we're down to cell phone images here.



although the picture doesn't actually belong to the grafting saturday, it could have! this one is a fruity cherry beer... on the rocks! funny thirst-quencher that. we drank it in the runner up to our grafting saturday... and never got drunk!☻

  2. Five and a half chimneys to go? Whew!

    I love those pups! Jack Russells are adorable. Does one get to come home with you after the renovation? ; )

  3. It would take a lot of gloved hands to accomplish your renovation, that is a lot of chimneys. Best Wishes!

  5. The comment section in your previous post reads "service unavailable". I was going to write that I've never found as much as a spool of thread in a thrift store here, let alone yarn! Perhaps Italians use up all their yarns:)? Your renovation looks like a lot of work, but a lot easier I'm sure now that you have light:)! Why must the chimneys come down?
