Well it's nearly Friday, another week gone. The days are just rushing past now!!
It's been quite a busy few days, for us. We are finally going to have our floor done. Yipee!!! for the past two days we have been taking up the old floor, didn't think there was that many blocks!!! So much dust and the smell in unbelievable. Smells like a building site. Tomorrow they are coming to board all the floor out, and on Monday they are going to fit the new carpet. BEIGE. Yuck!!! Sorry I have nothing against beige, if you like beige, but it's just not me. I would have liked something a bit more colourful. This is one of the things I don't like about living in rented accomodation. No choice. Well he did sort of give us a choice. Gold or beige. :(
Anyway it will be done before Christmas and we will have time to put the tree up, and the decorations. :) The timing will be tight, but we'll manage. At the moment we have furniture all over the place. The kitchen is unworkable in at the moment, but as long as we can get to the cooker on Christmas day we'll be fine. Ho Ho Ho.
Last week I had a bed on the landing, now I have a bookcase and the glass top off the dining table.

They are doing a Christmas play at Adam's school. This year they are doing The Grumpy Goat, and Adam's class are doing the Polar Express. They don't seem to do the Jesus story anymore, the baby in the manger, the three wise men. It's a shame really.
Adam is going to be one of Santa's helpers. An Elf. I bought him a costume on Monday. I didn't really need to buy one, we could have dressed him ourselves, but he wanted a "proper costume". I showed him what I had bought, and he looked at me as if I had gone mad. His words were " but I'm not an elf" My words " What do ya mean you're not an Elf" or words to that effect. It seems they had changed his part. I was down that school the next morning. Needlesss to say Adam is still going to be an Elf.!!!!!! Enough said

Still no snow for us here. Just very windy and rainy and wet and muddy.
Keith may have a job by Monday, he went for an interview yesterday and they will let him know by Monday. So fingers crossed.
It will be a hard day tomorrow, as Laura has to go back to the hospital for a scan. I am sure it will bring everything back to our minds. I am sure her body has recovered but her mind and heart, and mine will take longer to recover.
Well that's all I have for now. Have a great Thursday.

I need new carpet in my front room. It's a pretty lime green. I like to keep that color, but can't find it anywhere!

I wish my floors could be redone!
hope the job comes through!

How nice to have your floor & new carpeting by Christmas, beige isn't too bad. I would not choose that for myself but I think it is a good color to work with as far as other decorating goes. I hope the interview goes well, sending positve thoughts your way.

Firstly, what a glorious picture of the sky! I think that your beige carpet looks very nice and great to have it done in time for Christmas. It was freezing here last night, heavy frost just like yours.
