15th March 2018
I was supposed to collect two radiators from The House of Radiators, but unfortunately they had not arrived. This was not convenient as I had dusted myself off especially for the trip.
The highlight of the day was placing the order for the bathroom furniture, now the countdown to mid April has begun.
By the time I got back to the house the bathroom ceiling had been removed to reveal the condition of the joists. Only one was affected by rot, so not as serious as I thought.
The bathroom joist is just an example of the rot that seems to be happening around the world. Listening to the news on the radio whilst I’m working, makes me want to distance myself from everything. I just get on with building a cocoon to hide away.
On a lighter note, Kelli is finding some really good things to up-cycle, and make her space look inspiring. Even though I am not there to take any credit, she finds some great things, although I do try to take credit for those as well.
She has roped in her father to help with the woodwork repairs, where “Bondo” won’t work.
We give him the line that we needed a real craftsman to do the work, but we couldn’t find one, so we gave it to him. It’s an old joke, but always gets a chuckle. He replied by sending me a bill for twenty seven dollars.
