monkey business {renov # 14}


red chenet, salt and white bread

as you may well be aware, having bread, salt and wine in the house on the very first night you sleep in it, is a bringer of good luck. as you may well know, 'cos i've been bangin' on about it like a mad woman, we have moved house. i will not let you in on any details about the hunting down of the desired objects on that very late first night i wanted to rest my head on a crumpled cushion. but, finding the items i did, and carefully balancing them on a wooden plank on the wash basin in the bathroom i did too! so, that's settled. we're off to good luck.

temporary sleeping area in son's bedroom
ever since, i've been whizzing 'round the house like a fairy. sons pops in now and then, and is happy to move his stuff from dad's (only two doors down) soon enough. let's hope he makes it before schools starts again. in the meantime there's plenty of still lives popping up in most peculiar places. a little tour so far?

last but not least, these softies suddenly burst out the woodwork, merrily supervising the whole business of towing, tearing and unwrapping. son was surprised to bump into them, as he would be ... boys will be boys. ☻
