Glamming up the Hallway

By
Even though the bathroom is the next "official" project on, you all know Dustin can't sit still for that long. So, in the meantime we are also figuring out the fixing up of the hallway.


We've added a down light near the door (there was no light there before, inside or out!) as well as one outside too. It so glorious and bright and modern.


I know you can't really see the ugly glass, old fashioned fixture but there are 3 of them and we're replacing them all eventually! I made sure of it by picking up the new lights on sale over the weekend.

The wallpaper removal test was started (as seen on the left) but it's going to be such a mission and we'd still have to get the walls skim coated so we'll just replace the whole lot of wall linings.

Just another thing to keep us going in the top-to-bottom revamping of the house.

Taranaki Rugby!

Some photos from the game on Saturday afternoon. The wind caused a few wayward kicks and the torrential downpour mid-game made the ball slip all over the place but then the sun came out and Taranaki won! They were playing Canterbury who are now behind them by one place in the rankings. We had fun and managed to walk there and back without catching any of the rain. The steam-breathing drivable mascot I don't think the photo does justice to just how much it was raining! Line out Go the 'Naki! (They are the yellow and black team.)

Not for the squeamish

By
Well the long hours of work and planning and helping friends demo sheds and paper shuffling and biking and cooking and eating and cleaning have caught up with us and Dustin has relinquished his right to tell his story from last week. **Note, the pictures are gross so beware if you are a little faint seeing blood... So, last Friday I had worked the early shift and was back at home on a call with a virtual assisting client, so naturally my mobile was on silent, and as soon as I hung up, the home phone rang. (This is a phone that only people who have had a part in giving birth to one of us tend to use... that and wrong numbers, we get a surprising number of wrong numbers...) Anyways when Dustin's voice was on the other end the confusion began. "Hi, I'm at the hospital. Come here now." "What happened??" "I'm fine. Just come up here." (Wheels spinning in my head...) "Are you sure? I think it will take me too long to bike because I...
