bright side of the road....

waaahaaay. what a crazy few weeks. little kids with the lurgee. big kids with the lurgee but keeping on. job transitions. belly babies growing. thunder storms. rain for days and now a quiet blue-skied sun-shiney winters day has come to wash all the stress away.
As much as i like to think of myself as a season camelion...finding the good in all weather patterns...by the 4th day of rain in a row i am not the nicest person to be around.
So in ode to this gorgeous sun-speckled, leaf-glittering, blue-quilted-sky day... i shall start my list of things to do before the baby is born. and because on days like these nothing seems impossible.

these are the last of the season roses before the big CHOMP!

1. paint our bedroom. there is only so much i can take of this country blue and wooden room. i can imagine when it was done there was a lot of dried flowers and boat shoes involved.



2. finish building our chook house. although Lars now thinks it should be a kunekune house... of course he does. but chooks it shall be. i have visions of big fat happy hens clucking happily in the summertime. and glorious eggs.

3. organise babies room. if this doesn't get crossed off the list in time i am in trouble.

4. tile the bathroom. along with the farmhouse blue in the master bedroom...the bright sparks that had this house carpeted the bathroom. they were either very very very careful bathers...or maybe they didn't bathe at all. carpet + bathroom + kidlets = soggy.

5. finally get blinds for the girls room. blankets nailed are up are not really all that chic.



6. sell at least three paintings. this is the challenge for me. i haven't finished a painting all year. but hopefully now with both girls at morning montessori next term....TIME FOR ME TO CREATE!!

7. use an eyecream. serious.
