Spring Snow

This morning Rosanna was the only one in our house to be excited by the snow.

 Although it looked very pretty, we really could have done with out it today.

We were waiting for deliveries and had a home ed group to get to.

 Instead we had a crafty day at home, a table full of tissue paper, glue, paint, wool... and toilet rolls!

 The kitchen is now empty and plastered.

This time last year we we were having work done on the attic. 

It was so hot I had to give the workman cold drinks with ice cubes.

 

Freezing cold day and we had the door open to help the plaster dry!

This time next week, we'll have our lovely new kitchen :)

First day of Spring and Kitchen Renovations...

  March "comes in like a lion, out like a lamb", according to a saying which dates back to the 17th century. And yesterday, the first day of Spring definitely came in like a lion, with wintery snow showers for most of the day.

 Yesterday also saw the start of our new kitchen, out with the old!

 

 It's been a steady decline over the past few months, as originally we thought we'd have the new kitchen fitted before Christmas.

Bye-bye to the old oven, which struggles to ignite!

We'd all grown rather fond of the new floor covering, which started it's life as a table cloth and then did a good job covering the floor once the tiles had been removed.

We are currently living without a sink, oven, hob or fridge...
Happy days, as you can well imagine!
