Lunch With A Friend

I met up with a dear friend today for a spot of shop-wandering and lunch together. 
For my lunch, I had a hot milk chocolate drink and a bacon, cheese and onion toasted sandwich. 

Then, this afternoon, son whisked me off to his favourite hardware shop to buy interior house paint.
The house has a couple of walls that need repainting and I'm also going to have my bedroom freshened up.

I don't have to do any of the painting myself - that is what I have sons for!
My choice was for a creamy yellow with a pale blue feature wall (the photo colour isn't entirely accurate).

Our whole home is in quite an upheaval - but by the end of the year it should feel like a new house. 
I'm looking forward to that!

  1. Oh Margaret - my son doesn't 'do' practical stuff, but SIL is amazing - and I heard today that we will have shelves and a hanging rack in our wardrobes before Christmas - after 12 months of making-do, that will be wonderful.

  2. My son hates DIY - he is cross that he didn't watch or join in when his Dad did stuff - especially with the car.

  3. It sounds like you had a good day out and now I'm looking forward to seeing the paint on your bedroom walls. That's a great photo of the Dunedin Railway Station on your header. Did you take it yourself?

  6. The end results always win out on the mess created whilst decorating.

  8. You always have the most beautiful header pictures. Lunch sounds good! We need to paint a couple of rooms, and I just dread even starting. Seems like everything in the house gets turned upside down. :) But so pretty when the job is done.
