So, the bathroom may have come to a halt with the main man on his holidays, but there has been progress in other areas.
Thanks to loads of people helping out, including my mum and dad, and a friend who came for half a day's painting in exchange for 6 eggs, 3 tomato plants, and some beer, it is starting to come together and look as though it may possibly get finished one day.
The floor is down in the new bit
The bench top and sink are in (washing machine and tumble dryer will go under here)
The new toilet and handbasin is fitted (but not yet connected)
The old toilet has been removed, plumbing all sealed off and hidden away.
Plans for next week are for the painter to do the woodwork in the new bit and treat the doors. Then he will smarten up the old loo, which is aspiring to become a cloakroom very soon. I will be busy making flat pack shelving up for the new study and moving things in. Hopefully by the end of next week I'll have a functioning new study and new cloakroom...
... then I'll be able to get started on the nursery, which really isn't such a huge task, more about clearing a space and getting all the baby stuff in one room so that I can see what I have and what I need.
Feeling so much better about it all now.
The end is in sight!
