I'm Back!

Hello Everyone,

Firstly, sorry about being so quiet. There has been so much going on in the last couple of years, I just can't believe it has been so long!

I moved in with my partner back in March of 2014, the house is very much a work in progress so all of my jewellery and beads have been stuck in boxes for quite a while.

The house is making progress, although you wouldn't be convinced if you looked at it!
We now have double glazing, gas central heating, sorted the roof out, new electrics throughout and a brand new en-suite shower room.... The rest is being worked on as we speak!

In January we are hoping to get our two chimneys repaired, order our log burner which I am so excited about! We are also going to start getting some of the rooms plastered which will be great as we have bare bricks in pretty much every room at the moment, which leaves everywhere really dusty.

We have also been really busy working on the garden, and getting a veg patch up and running. During the summer and autumn we had quite a lot of produce which is so satisfying. Luckily we live next door to some allotments so we quite often shout over the wall to see if we are doing things right!





Then, just to fill in any remaining spare time we have I decided I wanted to have a workshop built at the top of the garden. 

We did decide that as there is so much other stuff happening at the moment we would not build it ourselves as we were going to, but we would demolish an old brick built shed that was already up there, dig the footings and lay the concrete slab.
