I had a gorgeous weekend with Andi! I hope you all had as wonderful a time as I did... or are even still having, as most of my readers live in the States! And because of this... for the first time in my life I am going to say... HAPPY 4th of JULY! ... *gasps* ooo that was weird... especially considering it's the 5th of July... that's right... in the real world it is!
Aside from absolutely freezing my butt off at Andi's gorgeous but poorly heated house I had a great time thinking up ideas for our to-be home.
Aside from absolutely freezing my butt off at Andi's gorgeous but poorly heated house I had a great time thinking up ideas for our to-be home.
According to the council our shed/garage has to be made up of the same stuff as the house. We're thinking of a 2 car garage with a little back room for Andi's stuff my painting studio hehe. Problem-solving in his sleep, Andi dreamed up a scheme, to get a frame from one of those big manly sheds and use timber (or whatever we decide to build the house with) to make the walls. Great idea right!
Anyway as it always goes, this plan will probably change about a billion times before we get around to doing anything. So this may or may not happen. But I just love being able to plan and decide everything for the place. I never once thought my first home with my guy would be one we planned ourselves.
What a lovely weekend you had. And isn't planning fun? Changing your mind often is necessary till you get just what you want.

ReplyDeleteKirsty dear, thank you for visiting with me! How nice to receive visitors from all over the world. You enjoyed yourself as well, I see....you are setting up your nest, I see; we love our little home and we are adding on to it this summer. Talk about nesting, we are having a blast getting the final pieces of furniture to make our cottage an even more wonderful place to lay our heads.
ReplyDeleteDo come by again! Anita

ReplyDeleteHi Kristy! It's much better to do all your thinking and planning now, and take your time with it too, rather than make hasty decisions and have to change things up later. I speak from experience!...Your painting below is just lovely! ;) Paulette
