wouldn't it be good.... (remember the song?). what a long time ago. i'm humming it today, because i know that before long all will be good. not that things aren't good anyway. it's been raining (too) hard, it's true, but kitten is keeping me company in my lap. i greeted my sweet central heating specialist, trying not to grow too desperate over the fact the builders managed to roof up while forsaking the exhaust pipe for the central heating boiler! oh glory, they will be hearing from me. and they will be drilling that hole too. blast!
little update : all is well that ends well. had a good ♥-to-♥ chat to my favourite builder. he's finishing up as we speak. next week the kitchen window and doors to the garden are arriving. my central heating will be finished before long.... it's getting there, i tell you, it's getting there. and so. i think the time may be at hand to post a preliminary before/after? i know everybody loves before/afters. so do i. thank you for having a look at just a few curlicues. feel free to click on images!

ReplyDeleteglad the heating problem is fixed!!!
Your space is going to be great when it's finished. I can tell - good bones!
ReplyDeleteOh hug your sweet kitten for me :^)
what a wonderful adventure! can't wait to see the finished space - but probably not as eager as you are :) that kitten makes everything better.
ReplyDeleteOh it's good to see things are moving along. Heat is nice, no? Cute kitten!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling kitty! He looks like he has a lot of personality, too : )
ReplyDeleteWith the cute kitten, I like to see the tale of work in progress...
ReplyDeletebravo bravo! you will be so thrilled when it is done and feel such a sense of satisfaction i think. meanwhile..... a little kitten to help keep the heart rate and blood pressure down when the builders get a little "ahead of themselves". loved your colorful corner view!
ReplyDeleteKittens make everything OK.
