Done and Done
So I’ll have some pics up in the morning of out finished house, after living on the floor in the dining room for 2 weeks it’s going to feel great to get into one of our faux leather beds and “snuggle”. Enjoy our night people.
If I'd Known
Oh well hindsight is a great beauty!… If I had known I would have been double crossed this probably would never have happened….
But I guess it did, and that’s life…. I’ll show you tommorow what I means.
It's here
Yep the desk chair is here, it requires some assembly but it all looks straight forward.
This is my old chair (except in grey), not terribly comfy but it has served it’s purpose well. Anyway off to work soon, back to the daily grind. Then back home to assemble the new chair plus possibly an ottoman bed, no rest for the wicked I guess.
New Chair Morning
Lots todo tommorow, including building this new chair that’s bound to come in bits. Must say I was planning to get a new office chair as my old one is well past it’s sell by date, since the wife got me one for those beds then it saves me the hassle of picking one out.
Also todo : paint bathroom, give hall 2nd coat of pain + do skirtings.
So after...
Much griping and moaning the wfe showed me the two beds we will be getting, one for the guest room and one for our room. Neither really tickle my fancy and I was hoping to get one with a TV built in… But now that’s over I should hopefully get my new chair soon!
It's Done
After trying to sweeten the misses so I could get a bed with a TV built in (like the ones on cribs), it turned out that wasn’t going to happen! Infact I have no say on either bed as they are both ordered! I’ll post up some pics probably tommorow.
how did she convince me? She told me this was on it’s way.
The Big Bed Debate
Well the wife has picked out a bed for the spare room, but my ideas of a TV built in to the bed for our room isn’t going well. Guess it may take something to sweeten her mind.

Got a Rug + Bits n Bobs
So finally got the home office almost setup, desk, computers etc all done and got my rug, which is great. Next up I have to paint the spare bedroom and then order a bed… not looking forward to this one
Colours, Colours, Colours!
After hunting around for a while I decided it on a colour for the rug in the office, I want the cherry red of this cone, If I can’t find one online tonight I’ll have to pop out and see if I can find one the old fashioned way!

Bedroom into Office
1st room I am going to begin with is the home office, the misses is going to deal with the living room whilst I do this. There’s plenty natural light and the walls are white which is fine, maybe just get a whiteboard up on one.
Think I will need a big rug as laminate flooring can be sticky and the touch on bear feet is strange.
But I have by far the easy job, mainly just aesthetics and...

Getting some tips →
I kind of know where I want to go but it’s aways going to look good to me as it’s my home so it’s always good to get some ideas and tid bits of advice from elsewhere, plus with 3 bedrooms (one is going to be a study), I don’t know what to do with the spare one yet!
If anyone has some ideas feel free to share!
