LYNISE: the man at the tile shop told me we had to get ALL THE PAINT OFF to ensure the tiles adhered properly and didn't fall off in the future.
Here's a couple of photos of the progress:
ABOVE: taken last night... so the lighting/colour isn't perfect, but you get the drift.
Steve has said on more than one occasion how nice it looks... so I'm pleased cos he didn't think we even needed a splashback.
I think he's proud of how it looks...he easily did most of the work involved.
Ignore the blue numbers, they will come off sometime today when we get some mineral turps.
Grouting will be done tonight...
TODAY: well as I did bugger all blog reading yesterday after planning to.. I shall try to do some today!
Well... after I've had a sleep in that is!
ONWARD...
I got up early, fed the dogs, blogged, took some nurofen for my shoulder which was killing me and went back to bed!
AND I got to sleep in until 10.15 which was just lovely.
Back into housework now... Stew is going to re-hang my new mirror so it's safer on the wall... I was scared shitless it was going to come crashing down!
LYNDA: yes there was a cutting mistake by THEM... but by the time we got to the top we were over it... I'd already been back to Takanini THREE times yesterday afternoon to get tiles cut to fit as obviously they had done it all wrong .... I was sick to death of it.
I am sick this afternoon... really sore tummy and headache to kill. Going to lie down.
End of Day: feeling a bit better now... think I had a migraine headache.... havn't had one of those in ages. Hope I don't get another in in ages either.
I spent hours today getting my fake nails off... I think next time I ever do that I'll just go and get them taken off professionally cos it was an awful job soaking them in acetone. My nails are ruined of course... so I've put some OPI All in One polish on them to strengthen them until they have grown out again.
Looking forward to tomorrow, it's supposed to be a lovely day weather wise... and fingers crossed everything is as it's supposed to be when we get up to Whitianga.
nite nite
