Half Term (Finally)

I still don't have internet at home, so unforunately, posts will continue to be few and far between for a little while longer. However, today is the last day of half term so I get a week off (well, where I work I have to book it off, and I've only booked three days off because I don't automatically get time off like flippin school teaches do!). Hooray!

I really really wanted to get things sorted at home during this time. I am just starting to paint a corner cabinet, and I think it's going to look good. I discovered if you just thing "oh sod, it" and paint primer on a surface before you've properly removed the varnish, it doesn't work so I've got to go back to sanding a bit longer, but it's quite enjoyable.

Instead, Mum has booked a cottage in Cornwall for myself, my partner, my brother and his fiance and herself. It should be nice, although it's a hell of a drive from the midlands. The weather isn't looking too promising but I can always burrow away and drink wine with a sea view instead of going for walks. I can handle that. So although I won't be posting for a while, and won't be taking photos of my wonderful new house, I will add some gorgeous photos of Cornwall (or wine and a sofa) when I get back. Hopefully we will have tv and internet then!

So that's the latest. I don't usually do 'this is the latest' posts, I like to have a topic or some sort of issue, but I wanted to explain my absence. I'll get back to normal posting in a few weeks, and will upload some how-to, or how-not-to paint furniture and before and after pictures when the internet is set up. Exciting times! I love being a bit handy.

Really need to get cracking on the Psychology work for my course when the internet starts. It's getting late to begin! Hope I can get it all done in time!

Hope all is well in your own little worlds. And if you have already had your half term... haha! Mine is just beginning!
