Rubix cube
Have you ever thought that a renovation project is like a rubix cube – you know how it’s supposed to look when it’s done and you kinda know what you are supposed to do to get there, but as soon as you make the first move, in what is obviously the correct way, suddenly all the other sides go to hell and everything is all over the place – and – gasp – for a moment you think you have totally screwed up and you should never have even started in the first place – well I am sure no one else has ever had this feeling – but I confess I have….several times lately, when the whole wall came off in the bathroom, when they told me the laminate for the kitchen was discontinued and the new stuff not only doesn’t match, it doesn’t even fit with the old laminate. When the new lock on the door won’t work and I had to slide thru a 5inch space to get back in, when I bought a new vanity online and it has two sinks that won’t fit the plumbing – I won’t go on- but you get the feeling. Where is that supportive shoulder when you really need it? My Rubix cube has mixed up colours – yes colours has a u for you Americans 🙂
I am consoling myself with my score on tile – 26cents and 35cents a sq ft – my bathrooms will be tiled and my problem with the laminate solved – I hope. Pictures to come when it is all laid – feeling pretty pleased with myself – I still can’t believer luck finding these close out lots on a July 4th special 75% off wow – it’s nice tile- feeling pretty happy with my scavenging skills.
It has been suggested I need a few more photos of me – I hope you notice a few more means one – I am not good at selfies and I never allow anyone to take my photo so…. Well maybe I might find one when I am not melting in 90+F heat …. Watch this space
