I am not sure whether it is blues because of the rain or I am having a flare up of an ailment but today was declared a pyjama day where I have literally done nothing except the basic tidy around and just read lovely blogs all day :) I had quite a weekend you know which began around friday-ish the night before I did not sleep as I had found this swelling on my cats belly and he already has a metal leg due to a very nasty car accident so I very much keep an eye on this cat called Buddy. After about just 2 hours sleep that night due to worrying I phoned the emergency vet and raced down there for the appointment with my youngest daughter Lily in tow, we waited anxiously only to find out that the cat has just got podgy lately can you imagine the shame ha ha! the vet saw the funny side of it and so did I once I had caught up on lost sleep.
Anyway about these blues I was a bit worried today that my getting my house together was not happening as quick as I wanted I am not your usual very neat and tidy blogger here due too lots of children,a rabbit, a dog, the now four cats, numerous health problems and a bit (lot) of disorganisation on my part. I was a little down and dreary until a friend said to me today, you are a single parent of 6 with a zoo who can sew,knit,cook,crochet,paint, tile and wallpaper so I thought with a smile she is right and Rome was not built in a day and I have changed the once very ashamed of bathroom to the I love the bathroom :) and I tiled the floor myself even solved the dreaded cistern part with confidence so bye bye blues and hello self sufficiency.
There is the charming cat in question who decided he wanted to get in the camera act I am almost certain he is grinning at me like the spoilt cat he is.I am loving them spotty towels I picked up from Primark yesterday.
I do love to have a nice toilet roll for the weekend we have plain white all week but on a Friday I have started this happy bog roll theme it keeps the kids amused anyway :)
Ideally I would love to live in a cottagey beach house but unfortunately it's smoggy London for us but hey ho we can have a bit of beach in our bathroom.
Another beachy happiness for our new bathroom.
I love these storage baskets to keep all our potions out of sight and mind and that's it really I may have not done much but one room is finished so not so bad one room done and five more to go ..... now I will stop feeling guilty and blue and go grab those crochet needles.

what a beautiful job you have done with the tiling and decorating.. your bathroom looks lovely! i like the colouful touches too and the 'weekend loo roll' made me smile :) i might adopt that idea here.
ReplyDeletei am glad buddy was ok and has recovered well from his accident. he's a sweetie =^.^=

many thanks for your visit :)
ReplyDeletelet's hope that our blogs will have the chance to blossom this time.
how is your decorating coming along? you are very clever. i don't know the first thing about tiling. i've tried wallpapering in the past but it was a disaster! haha.
hope you are having a fabulous weekend xx
