I did a big sample area of the "ocean calm" paint and it looks OK. So I bought more and will continue tomorrow. I did quite a few little bits of painting today, and I cleaned up so well no-one has noticed I have done anything. I fitted the IKEA wall storage thing in thing one's bedroom for him to hang his clothes on, and it's OK. I have another one, which was meant to be wall storage by the desk, but now I'm tempted to use it in other places. I'm probably going to get too many of these things and overdo it.
I fitted a third smart Nest smoke alarm and made a chilli too today, and took thing two to the park after school. He does sometimes ask when I pick him up from school if we can go to the park, and I always have to say no to get back to work. Today I could do it, and a few more days this week too, so that was nice. Was a bit too cold for it really, cold and foggy, but it's technically Spring so we will go out and we will have fun.
Pleased to see in Homebase they had a big Dremel section, I wonder what extra fittings I can get for mine? I will have to have a browse another time. Maybe I'll get the router attachment 1 2 and make a proper mess of our dining table...
The blind still worked at bed time, which is a bonus.
I say bed time but they have just put Lord Of The Rings on so no-one's going to bed for days...
