Back Verandah

After a very long wait, since they put in the raised concrete floor, the glass frame and carpet has been laid. This week I look forward to them putting the blinds back up. The vertical blinds will have to be shortened and I am hoping that is something I can do with Joy when she comes down.

While Paul and I were out this morning we went to Spotlight and found the actual parts which we needed to replace in the blinds. I had been trying to manufacture a quick fix with modelling glue. It is so satisfying to have the real thing to put in. One had previously been tied up with wire.

I am pleased the back verandah will be ready in time for Barry and Joy and the girls visit at the end of the month because I enjoy sleeping out there although they don’t want me to move from my bedroom. I find it is easier to put the two girls in my bedroom.

Breakfast at McDonalds

Paul took me out to McDonalds early so that we could come back and fix up the wireless card in the computer which was dropping its signal. At this stage it looks as though by shifting it into the slot that the dial-up modem used, has fixed the problem. We keep trusting.
