HAPPY THANKSGIVING.....

....to all my American friends....I hope you all have a wonderful day.


Sorry to have been MIA for so long...silly me thought I'd be back to blogging a week after we'd moved in....now I am rolling around in laughter at the thought of my naivety :-)

We have been working none stop to try and get this place sorted...forget the fun things like hanging art or setting up our workrooms. So far it has been dealing with leaks, replacing faucets, showers, waste disposal units and the like.


Oh and dealing with an ex- landlady who pays no attention to the law and has withheld a chunk of our security deposit...guess we'll be seeing her in court shortly.

I have spent the last 3 weeks doing nothing but scrubbing the kitchen cupboards to within an inch of their life and priming, painting, and lining the interiors. It has taken this long because they were so gross and whatever they are made of required a minimum of 4 coats of paint. I am about halfway there now and I don't' even want to think of what we'll do with the exteriors.


Once the cupboards are clean enough to put things into, then I'll think about my workroom.


I know I promised pics and you'll get them soon. I'll likely start a new house blog to keep as a journal...just need to think of a name for it :-)


Anyhow, thought I'd fly by to wish you all a great Thanksgiving.
