Progress, however small, has been made at the ‘glorified shed’!
The former
workshop’s office is undergoing its transformation to become a bathroom. As
I’ve previously reported, outside drainage has been installed, electrics
attended to and insulation commenced. And now, not only are the walls being
insulated, but are about to be plasterboarded too!
Even more
exciting we have a floor, not just the uneven, shoddy excuse for a floor that
was there when we arrived, but a smooth, even proper floor. With work
progressing I can now at last look forward to a bathroom suite being installed
in the not too distant future.
For months,
we’ve traipsed across to my mother-in-law’s in all weathers to grab a shower.
How amazing it will be to step into a bathroom that we can call our own!
For the
same number of months I have pored over pictures of baths, shower cubicles,
vanity units and the like, even sticking all my favourites into my coveted
scrapbook – my dream home on paper! Soon I will be shopping for these items for
real!
Now this
may sound like I’m getting somewhat overexcited about the whole thing, but
believe me, when you’ve lived for eight months with no bathroom to call your
own, this is a major event.
Of course,
once the bathroom’s completed, there is still the kitchen, dining area, lounge
area, bedrooms...
Well, let’s
just say, our rural home is very much a work in progress!
