It’s taken over a week of hard work (not to mention the odd injury) but the girls new bedroom is complete! We still want to add or change a few things, but it will stay as it is for a few months, until we can afford to do anything else – both our free time …
Yesterday was an exciting day for us… our new sofa & armchair arrived! Yes, at 28 years old (not quite 29… yet! Nine days to go…), I am now at an age where a sofa delivery is the absolute height of excitement. Our last sofas were less than 5 years old, but were getting very …
