While we were away our bathroom was being renovated - a real blessing...but what a MESS! The bathroom is ALMOST completed flooring and a few other bits to be done in the next week or so.
While the work on the bathroom was going on a problem in the girls' room was being dealt with - damp and mold in one of the walls. This required the plaster board being pulled off and drying out the brick wall. (The source of the damp was discovered and dealt with via the bathroom renovation) It was a big wall and it was very wet! The builder is coming in soon to seal and replaster the wall. Which will then need redecorating as well.
AND THEN...School started back!
