My walls are in a bit of a catch-22 at the moment. Technically, my walls are not in any catch-22 since they are firstly inanimate objects and secondly they are walls and they support things (roofs, plaster, pictures etc), so remaining standing and supporting things are pretty much all they need to do; I am [...]

I can finally close the book on the G-Plan sofa that started its time in my life as a roadside pick up that Mr and Mrs Rule-Britannia encouraged and assisted me to collect (all hail Mr Rule-Britannia’s trailer, for it is made of awesome), the atomic styled G-Plan sofa is now ensconced in my abode.

I keep forgetting to tally your votes and report the outcome of giving you the vote. In the matter of restoring/turning the following freecycled items into stylish chairs to grace my abode: They have good bones – being 60s parker style chairs…but the varnish needs to be stripped off and they need to be re-upholstered.

The ebay horizon

I have been sorting out a little more of my study – completing another of the tasks that I have never quite gotten to, In particular, I have gone through a giant box that was filled with items I meant to (eventually) sell on ebay. This sort of industriousness kills two birds with one stone [...]

Having waved my magic rose glass over my living room, it was time to send out for another bottle of wine and start on the study/office. At the risk of seeming incredibly whiny (and repeating myself), the study/office looked like it was on the receiving end of an explosion in a junk factory: And by [...]
Expedelicious

I still had boxes of books for the living area, including all my recipe books, plus the office/study hadn’t improved from this: I had a small metre to wheel my chair [...]

I can’t believe how caught up on home furniture and storage at the moment – admittedly I do have a box problem, but seriously!!!!! …although I may have an excuse as I think I may be developing an allergy to carboad boxes. Maybe not an actual “makes me sneezy” and/or a “cart me off to [...]

Yesterday during my lunch I bought a desk from Freedom for my study, so I am one step closer to having the study step up. So I set it up last night, in addition to cleaning the futon base, mattress, vacuuming the sofa and the mattress on my bed, making my bed and putting two [...]
