We had the grandkids (of the human kind) over last Friday
evening. Granddad is clever in that a
swim/splash in the tiny pool counts as a bath after dinner, so cleansed they
were and loved it being done.
Then on SaturdayI got word that my latest new toy arrived and we
desperately needed to make space for this but first I had to go shopping. Our
local quilting guild (I am not affiliated) has a quarterly meeting and I do
support one of the vendors from another city.
So I placed my order for Best Press and quickly went to fetch it and
while there got some serrated scissors by Apliquick too.
Back home hubby and my son, who just came to fetch the
grand kids, moved furniture from one guestroom to another (or totally out of the
house) like crazy and I had to start washing all the bedding. Then ripping the carpet from the floor
followed and it was interesting to see the manufactured date on the back of the
carpet. 19 July 1983. This carpet is 8
years older than my daughter and it wore well.
After discovering a huge crack in the sub-floor hubby fixed
it and smoothed it with self-levelling screed.
Ha! I sound so intelligent using daily technical terms used in our
flooring business.
Then he fitted luxury vinyl tiles in a colour I absolutely
adore. A mix of greys and brown so
anything goes.
Time to put my quilt art up the wall.
Finally home but still boxed and the dealer was rather
strict and we were told not to even attempt to set it up ourselves, but after
convincing him that my hubby is really good, we got the go-ahead.
A week later and I have my new toy assembled in a newly created play-area and I am ready for my first lesson on Monday.
