We got a new Fridge/Freezer. It’s very nice all brushed stainless and really fits in with the kitchen. Something I said has obviously pricked Dave, because since then he has connected the oven properly, even going to buy the right screws to fit the socket to the wall, he would usually leave that hanging and changed a cupboard that we bought back in September to one that is the right size. Now he has started to nag me about the things I have hoarded and getting rid of them. I did list most of it on ebay last week and have sold some. The rest has gone on to freecycle and will hopefully be collected today or tomorrow.
I have to get it shifted as it is taking up space in Charlotte’s bedroom, and she is back from school this weekend. I am really looking forward to having her home, and planning my shopping with her favourite foods in mind. I bought a lovely leg of lamb yesterday and had my first organic delivery today, so that is going to make a wonderful Easter dinner, which we’ll have on Monday, as we’re traveling all of the weekend.
You’ll know from my posts that I love to read Zen Habits, and today I’m trying to keep in mind, that Dave is already perfect in every way. I am so not bothered about his doing DIY usually, and don’t mind the unfinished things, but with my daughter bringing a friend home and her parents are coming to pick her up, I really want the place to look nice. I have to remember we are nice people, we are welcoming her to our home which is clean, tidy and warm, we have good food and nice family times, and it really does not matter that our floor is a messy mix of carpet and tiles, most of which are split.
