Renovation project - Something feels strange

Renovation project - Something feels strange

The water heater did not work last night and our hot water is running out, we can turn it on manually but this is more expensive to do during the day as we have opted for cheaper rate electricity during the night.

We Skype with Andy and explain that the water heater did not work, it was simply a case of changing two wires around, so fingers crossed for tonight.

John sets about installing more heaters in the house, we are actually going to be warm soon in each room!

We spend the evening watching TV and I have this strange sensation, something does not feel right in the house, I can't work out what it is.

I am left feeling a bit uneasy until I realise that I took my second fleece off earlier in the day, I am sat here in a t shirt and only one jumper!

I am warm!!!!

The strange feeling is sitting here normally, not wearing two fleeces and a body warmer and my woolly hat, it has been so long since I have felt warm, I had forgotten what it felt like.

This is no longer a strange feeling, it is nice, it is normal, it means we are starting to get somewhere on the house.


It is time for a celebration!

  3. Hi, thanks Jenny I've just read your blog from beginning to end over the last couple of days, and loved all of it. It's giving us itchy feet to do another old house renovation, we just have to finish this new build project first. We find finishing is the hardest part of everything. Thanks again, looking forward to the next post.
