What a wasted day I have had.
I was up early doors getting the place ready for the activities which were supposed to be happening today.
So here I am at 3.00 in the afternoon with the following things I have been waiting for.
Builder to start clearing away the rubbish made over the last 6 weeks of construction. (This has been half completed so brownie points for him)
The decorator was coming to put a second coat of emulsions on the dining room walls, no show yet. The decorator turned up at 4 o'clock better late than never haha.
The carpet fitter was coming to fit the new dining room carpet, no show yet. He also arrived at 4 o'clock.
The LVT fitter was coming to prep floor in the kitchen, no show yet. at 4.30 they turned up to check that the floor was prepped correctly and will start in the morning.
Howdens were coming to deliver the freebie larder unit, no show yet. At 4.35 they turned up with all the cabinets and accompanying paraphernalia
This morning whilst the builder was cleaning up outside I took the opportunity to have a peek in the garage to see where the blackbirds had decided to build their nest. As it turns out it is between the rung of a ladder in the eves of the garage so it will not be disturbed.
This afternoon whilst waiting on the trades to rock up I have made some chocolate orange cupcakes which is the first bit of baking in the new space. It is ages since I baked so was quite pleased with the effort. So I was super popular with the trades as I made coffee and tea and passed around the cupcakes.
