what can happen in a weekend
• new kitchen cabinets installed
• remove old kitchen
• move the entire household into new room
• totally strip gyprock from existing house

give me a new set of feet and
a new husband (i think he is a little worst for wear)
aah nothing that a good sleep won't cure.

i ended up with a light earthy grey porcelain tile and a very speedy tiler, i couldn't be more happy!! and now that job is done, this week is about setting up camp in our new room so we can get started on the original part of the house - which will be completely gutted.
we cut a new access into the new room, the kitchen sink used to be here but will soon be the new hall way.

parents authentic 60's copper one
that i have been eying off for some time...
