Busy week.

Had a rest on Tuesday, wanted to save my energy for the Wednesday.
Handyman from Hubby came late about 10am while he had said 9am. At least he did not leave me in the lurch. The job was done within the hour.



This is all left of the pergola




When all the rafters were down, I could fill in the holes with putty. It was quick dry and painted it once.

Have to do it a couple of times. In the front I had sunshade hanging, got that down too. Have decided not to put up the sunshade again.



On wednesdaynight Alice came home and on thursdayafternoon I brought her to her home, helped her to move to another room. They get a new housemate and she gets a bigger room. Dusted and vacuumed the old room. Afterwards I had to bring her to TESSIE. This will be her last year.

On Thursday James came and put in the new laundry tub what a difference. The tiles came off when he got the old tub out.







Had thought to get away with the old tiles but see have to get new ones. Will wait with this till the handbasin in the bathroom is also changed. There is a delivery time of 3 weeks. Have time to look around for tiles and a tiler.

In the meantime have to get a skip(bin) to clean up all the rubbish around the house now. Have a lot of old electronics, which are not working, TVs, VCRs, radio, washing machines, old car parts, the timber of the pergola, the laundry tub, old toilet etc,etc.

Received this week 2 new siggies.

Carina Norberg of Finland.



Margun Vatshelle from Norway.



Have not done a lot of quilting, have joined the knittingyahoogroup and started to knit a bit. Can now learn to read the english pattern as they are given in two languages, english and netherlands.

Have now done two rows on my 365challenge quilt. The first row is stitched have now to do the second one.
