Morning!
I had a really bad nights sleep last night - decided to leave my door open so the cats could come in - not doing that again! Periodically one of them would jump on the bed and wake me up by walking over me and at 5am mercky decided to come and sit on my head and purr so loudly! She then decided to paddy-paw on my face and lick my eyelids and my lip!!
My eyes are stinging today, I guess because I didn't get much sleep! I am sat here with a dilemma about what to do today. I should really be getting the tiles out of the bathroom as I now know that they are not asbestos...or continue to strip the wall paper in the bedroom. However, I am also wondering if I should go for a run before it gets too hot but its already 10.22....I could also spend the day getting the house clean and tidy ready for the weekend....oohhh what to do.....
I could go and get ready for a run....do a shortish one....then get some work done in the house - and finish early enough to get the house tidy ready for Andy coming home. That sounds like a plan.....
six hours later
So, I went for a run - 7.4km so not so short...here it is:
So my average time was 6.58 min/km which is quite good for me. Just before I went for a run Mercky decided to try and climb up my leg...as soon as I looked down, my leg was bleeding! I have little cuts all over my legs as their claws are like little razor blades!!
Anyway, I got back home, and got the quote back from the plumbing/electrics for the annex - I had put £3,500 in the budget, hoping it would be less and it has come back as £6,200. We don't have £6,200...so that was bad news. Then I got a call about the asbestos testing we got done the other day on the tiles in bathroom. He just wanted to check that I'd understood the results. As it happens, I hadn't because I thought that it said it was not asbestos - but it was!! So - that was bad news too....got to figure out how to get rid of it now!
So, rather than work on the house, I decided to dye my hair and then go out into the garden for a bit. Its so gorgeous, we are so fortunate to have such an amazing house and garden. Big cat Itsy joined me in the garden...
Underneath the Indian Bean Tree (which incidentally, doesn't grow beans and is not from India)
Big Cat (as opposed to one of the kittens) Itsy:

Me messing about sending snapchats to Lissa:
So...now I await Andy's return. He's caught in traffic so he will probably be a bit stressed and tired. Hopefully getting back to our awesome house and having the weekend ahead will make him feel better! I am going to go and sit in the garden and give him a call....
