Drama Queen

I am just seeing if this still works and is still live and, most importantly, if anyone swings past.

I feel like I need to get a lot of shit out of my head somewhere, and I think that this may well be the place.

Especially if no-one visits and no-one reads it!

No Real Direction

I don't really know what to do with this space of mine in the internet world.

I post on FB and I post on Twitter and I don't seem to make time to post here.

I think that part of it is because I am not sure who, if anyone, actually reads this blog.

I wanted to post my DIY exploits but then I worried about who was reading them and whether I wanted possibly complete strangers seeing into my home!!!!

So I am a lost cause, no real direction and not really sure if it worth while keeping this going.

Of course, I could change it totally, but what too?!

Ranting.

I feel the need to get things out of my head so I have decided to start using this as my ranting place.

It doesn't bother me that not many people will read it, I just feel the need to empty my head so that I can clear space for the important stuff.

I am also hoping to get some focus back and just feel calmer and more peaceful.

Sometimes it will just read as me having a jolly good moan, but it is good to get it out there.

It's been years since I have written daily but I think it will be very therapeutic.

A fellow blogger does a day summary of various categories and I asked if I could utilise that idea.

I have thought about my daily summary which will appear at the end of my posts like so....

Today's summary.

TV - Bedlam
Tea - 6 cups
Coffee - 4 cups
Food - lots of chocolate Halloween treats, vegetable lattice slice, fish with new potatos and veg, slow roasted tomato soup.
Grumpy level - medium to high. It was a bad work day.
Achieved - resolving the bad work day.

Bathroom blind.

I finished my diy weekend on a high finally putting up my blind.

Alchove 1.

Today's mission. Clear this alchove, remove shelves, strip wallpaper and mark up for the new shelves.

My time starts now.....

Sealed fireplace surround.

I removed the frame and started from scratch.

Now the frame is level with the wall.

I plan to paper to the edge and put a mdf frame around it.

I am very chuffed with my work tonight.

Fireplace surround.

The fireplace before I attempt to tidy it up.

Wallpaper

I am intending to have this wallpaper on my chimney breast.

I feel in love with the sample, so I have ordered it ready for action!

I just hope that I am good at wallpaper hanging.

Project Lounge.

The next DIY project is my lounge.

I am armed with a steamer wallpaper stripper.

I love it and it was worth every penny.

I have started stripping.

I also found this note written on the wall.
