The kitchen is currently a site - a real sight a building site very soon. Today we had the logs delivered and they take up the best part of the garage. The motorbike is now in the shed with the wooden kitchen units and fireplaces (where else?) The Rayburn is coming next Wednesday and it too will go into the garage until Jon organises some pals to come round with various muscles, trolleys and devices and they bring it into the kitchen, onto it's plinth. We will then wait for it to be commissioned ie plumbed into the central heating system and then the kitchen re-fit will happen. Not sure how and in what order, but the plastering and electrics will have to be done first.
The weather is set to change so it just might be a good time to concentrate on a couple of garden projects - not much else I can do in the house - but the garden ideas I want to implement should be fun - Watch this space!
And yes I bet one day I will hear you yelling, "Yea! It's finally finished!" all the way over here across the pond.
ReplyDeleteThanks for covering for me today. Holidays do confuse me as what day of the week it is.
good luck with all this. I'm exhausted just THINKING about it all.

Enjoy your gardening, Denise!
ReplyDeleteFun indeed, once the rain has stopped - the forecast is terrible tonight. Good luck with the Rayburn project - it sounds terrifying but these men know what they are doing. Make you self a cup of coffee (or something stronger) and go and sit in the shed if it is raining - come in when it is all done.
ReplyDeleteSo much work Denise. Bravo to doing this all yourselves. I can't wait to see the final product.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your garden in the meantime.
Good luck.
ReplyDeletewell for right now you can't do anything in the kitchen so.... the garden sound just about right !
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
You have my sympathy LOL

ReplyDeleteYou mentioned 'various muscles'.

You're going to have to have a grand party to christian the new Rayburn! What do you plan on cooking? I'm salivating just at the thought of it! lol
ReplyDeletesmooth sailings.
ReplyDeletelovely wood logs.
have fun today.
wow! all's well that ends, aye?
ReplyDeleteWish you wonderful time ahead.
ReplyDeleteI'm not particularly fond of gardening but it ranks lots higher than kitchening. :) I like that Raeburn will be settled upon a plinth!
ReplyDeleteI think that a bunch of men battling with a Rayburn would make me want to retreat to the garden, muscles or no muscles ;)
ReplyDeleteHope it all goes smoothly for you! Mo
What do you need firewood for in the middle of Summer? Send them down here. We had hail and gale winds today.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'll bet you can't wait for it all to be over!
ReplyDeleteYou're so patient Denise - I'd be tearing my hair out by now!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your gardening. x
It's all very exciting, Denise. How do you keep sane amidst the turmoil?
ReplyDeleteGoodluck on the renovation, we have one coming up too.
ReplyDeleteI actually had to google to know what a Rayburn is ! I had never heard of it. Seems real practical !
ReplyDeleteOh Denise! I do hate major reconstructions in my living space! When we had the kitchen done I took off for a couple of days. I really like all my 'stuff' in their proper places. Change is not my thing.
ReplyDeleteYe God's woman, do you two never rest?? Sheesh, it's all happening, isn't it? Good luck hon, can't wait to see the finished result.
ReplyDeleteExciting - and more exciting as time goes by:-)
