So disappointed.

After several days try to get hold of the firm that is doing my bathroom I did get contact yesterday. Finally everything left was going to be done, well almost everything. The edges around the window can’t be done until I have painted it. I started to work with it last Saturday.

Imagine my huge disappointment when I came home to this …




I can’t imagine he was thinking. Did he really think that I would accept to have a black edge by the toilet instead of having it like all the other walls? To have an edge that would gather dirt and be hard to keep clean?

I really just want them to get out of my life. I want my key back and to know that now I can get my home back in order.

Saturday 8 January

I have an idea of how I’m going to keep this blog more alive that I have done for the past year. I have decided that I around the same date each month shall take a few photos along the walk that Stella and I take normally during the weekend mornings. These photos were taken yesterday morning between 8.15 am to 11.00 am. Had I taken them today they would have looked differently since there has been a change in the weather. Yesterday it was -2C, today at 7 am it was 2C a different of 4 degrees. I have tried to find spots that will change during the year.



Agnes von Krusenstjernas allé. I thought when I moved here that it was build for the tram that went to Boulongen Park but I was wrong. It was build to be a road for the people following the coffin on its way to the grave.


I took this photo of the graveyard just to show how much snow we have.


This is taken från Gustavs Bro. It's one of four candy stops Stella has during the 2½ hour walk.

This is one of the spots that creates a problem during spring.


I just couldn't resist showing you a tracking Stella. Right now she has caught the scent of something.


During the summer these field will held one of the riding schools horses or a farmers cows.


The forrest.

Stella again.

This will another problem spot later on.

Back in the park.





The last one and it is at the begining and end. Carl Mille's Angel Musicians in Stadsträdgården.

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.
