I wish i could say it was done and everything was getting back into order but I can’t. Yesterday when I came home I thought, no I had planed to get everything unpacked. I even skipped yoga for it.

But

When I started to clean up I found a leaking line, loose tiles, a “long” hole along the window and doorway and so on. And to top the electricity for the washing machine (I don’t have one but perhaps future owners will) was gone. My stress level was high before but now. Let just say that I didn’t sleep much last night.

Anyway this is how it looks

I can see the finishing line

Almost there, almost ... I think that in my 101 post I'll be able to say All done constractors - now it's my turn.

Ok, I can now see that my bathrobe can't be hanged where I had planed, nor can my scale be placed there I had planed for it and I can see that the towelhangers can't be placed where I had planed. I guess that over night I have to deside if I should let them drill holes for the hangers or not.

So much better

I got them to redo the tiles and look what a different. I can’t get the walls the way I wanted it but I sure did get the floor I wanted.

Before:


After!!!!!!

At home in the mess

I have spent the day cleaning up what I can. Kitchen, bedroom and livingroom have been dusted, vacuumed and mopped. 10 loads of cloths and other textiles have passed the washing mashines. I have swept the hall to get rid of as much as possible. I guess it’s just me left now.

I plan to go to Petra’s place and have a shower before going to the cinema. I have changed my mined of what I’m going to see, so instead off Russel Crowe I’m going to see a new Swedish movie.

By the way this is how it looks in the bathroom right now. I’m a bit disappointed about the floor. I had ordered the joints to be dark but as you can see they are not. Guess who will be on the phone at 7 am on Monday.

Wall

After several days with nothing happing the guy turned up yesterday. I had to leave work in a haste to show him how I wanted things. He had held my drawing the wrong way. Later he called and told me that my measurements were wrong since he had to start from the middle. This meant that my drawing was wrong and I told him that he could do the tiles the way he thought looked best. Today I went up to have a look. I’m not sure what to say. Perhaps it will be better when the shower is up.

Anyway this is how it looks right now.

He is still standing and it’s snowing

Now I am worried

A quick visit at home to water my plants and to check out the bathroom.
Monday the man in charge said they would start the tiling on Thursday, Tuesday it was Friday so today I got worried when I saw the walls. Will they be ready on Friday when I’m moving back home.

And when I do I’ll have some serious cleaning to do. This is how my hall looks today.

Any way … He is still here!

First update

I have been up twice since they started on Monday. It’s a mess at home. My hallway is filled with stuff. I could hardly make my way to the bathroom. My poor plant that I couldn’t move was in a mess, I pushed it back into the pot and dirt and can only hope that it will survive this adventure.

On Tuesday the bathroom looked like this …

Yesterday I went strait to my yoga class and then home to Petra without passing my flat. Today it had advanced to this state.

After work tomorrow I’m first going to check into the hotel and then head home to my brother’s to take care of my niece and nephew for the evening. New photos will be up during the weekend.

Something else that has been up for the first week is the strawgoat.

Now it just need to survive another 22 days until it's Christmas.
