Bathroom: done! – update II
Even though I promised to take some pictures of the finishied bathroom, I didn’t get around to do so.
Instead, I really promise to do so tonight, and will leave you with the backposting of some pics of the bathroom while it’s being worked on.
Milestone: 150!
Yes, you’ve read it well: this is my 150th blogpost!
I’ve just consumed my celebratory cup of coffee and will swiftly proceed with an equally festive candybar.
Oh yes, the happy times.
Bathroom: done!
Yesterday, the workmen have finished the bathroom as far as they could. We’re really happy with the way the room has turned out even though it’s not finished yet!
Due to the fact that some things have been ordered but could not be delivered in time, a few bits and pieces were not installed, and the workmen have to come back to install those items too. Unfortunately, the time for the items to be delivered is estimated today to be 2 weeks at least, so it’ll be quite some time before the bathroom will be finished.
Luckily, we do not live there yet, so there is no need for us to brush our teeth or take a shower in our own bathroom just yet.
I forgot to make some photo’s yesterday, I hope to do so tonight or otherwise tomorrow.
I am kind of disappointed by my fatigue right now, so I’m not the most energetic person this week.
BTW: I would really like to thank Timmey for helping us out with painting last Saturday. Here’s some pics of him avoiding me.
BTW: Claudia: you’re still welcome to help out! You’re also welcome to visit us some time soon, when we’re done decorating to drink some tea and coffee.
Weekly update house, part 1
Here we go, it has been a full week and a lot has happened over the past 7 days.
We’ve been painting frantically to get as much done as possible to be ready when the furniture arrives.
So far, I can proudly announce thet nothing is completed!
Just kidding, we’ve got a lot of the walls painted and all but 2 ceilings, so we’ve made huge progress on those parts. Also, nearly all doors and posts are finished, there’s only the finishing touches to do there together with some odd ones left out.
BTW: no more orange on the blog
BTW2: I hope to post some more pics soon!
The painting has begun
Day 2 began with massive loads of painting.
After finishing the ceilings on most floors (only 3 small ones to go!) it was time to start rolling some colour on the walls.
With great help from both my and my girlfriend’s parents, we’ve made a huge difference. See for yourself!

More is to come!
