Day 638 Bugger!

7th May 2019

House renovation day 9

I settled down to lay the floor in the main bedroom whilst Kelli shot off to paint, paint and more paint. The second bedroom, the bathroom cabinets, and living space skirtings all got done as I was bashing flooring strips into position.

We had the wind taken out of our sails with the news that Painted Farmgirl was closing at the end of the month. There was no explanation, just some dates when things should be removed. This place has formed the backbone to our monthly income, although Facebook Market has take over as our main selling vehicle. There have been a few signs of instability over the past months, but as the place has been in business for ten years this has been shrugged off as general market conditions. However not to be discouraged, Kelli was straight on the phone checking for spaces in other places.

Damian sent me a picture of the Jag with it’s new number plate after being sold. I had a twinge of sadness, but now somebody else will have fun with it.
