Despite being dog-tired I had an awful night’s sleep last night, the reason being that it was so hot in the caravan. When it’s that hot it makes all your insect bites itch despite being treated with hydrocortisone cream, even the old ones from days before, and with the caravan being so close to the trees and my grass not being cut, I’ve got plenty on my legs, around the knee area especially.<\/p>\n

So I started a bit later this morning but despite that, although I’d like to have done more, I still managed to achieve my main aim for today, which was to finish the ceilings in the bathroom and separate toilet. This meant that bar the woodwork in both rooms and the bathroom shower screen, which should arrive any day now, both rooms would be effectively finished.<\/p>\n

First the bathroom.<\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Now the little separate toilet.<\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"null\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

I love both rooms and am so happy to at last see some spots in place in the ceilings. Some needed a bit of enlargement of the holes that the electrician drilled but now I know what to expect it’s no big deal if I have to do the same for more of them when the time comes.<\/p>\n

Whereas all of the others in the house are all white, the pair of spots in the little toilet have chrome bezels. I didn’t particularly want that, in fact I’d have preferred them all to be white, but when I found I’d under-counted and had to order more, the white ones were not available.<\/p>\n

So a good result for the day which means that I can go straight onto masking up the living room and corridor ready for undercoat spraying of the walls and ceiling in those areas. When I’ve done that I’ll be able to top coat the living room and corridor ceiling and the kitchen ceiling and kitchen walls that will be painted rather than tiled. That will be a huge leap forward and with a fair wind, I reckon I might get there by the end of the week-end \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
