My motivation has got up and left....

Builder’s cancelled

Builder’s cancelled

June 21, 2022 Kate2 Comments

Hate when we get up super early to have the builders in and they have cancelled. It isn't the carpenters fault but that of Mumbles Construction as the building materials have not been ordered.

I'd like to say that everything has been so good I simply haven't had the time to blog, but that would be a lie.

Is that a drip I hear?

March 2, 2022 Kate4 Comments

I'm slow to anger. It takes ages for me to get into a huge simmering-red-faced-hate stage, and truth be told, I'm still not there yet. Could be that it has more to do with the length of time that this has been going on, but I am annoyed. No, actually a little beyond annoyed. Our… Continue reading Is that a drip I hear?

Let there be light

March 1, 2022March 1, 2022 KateLeave a comment

How difficult is it to buy lighting? Turns out... Very. Not only do me and R have slightly different ideas but the space is not exactly what we envisioned. That is of course the builders problem. He has made it oddly... Let us just say that for some reason the walls are twice as thick… Continue reading Let there be light

Teaching…

January 20, 2022January 21, 2022 Kate2 Comments

I'm taking the plunge and going for a post with the university. Only a teaching assistant, but if the hours are there it will give me some experience. Do I want to teach? Now that is the question... it is one I have fought with for a while. I guess in my ideal I would… Continue reading Teaching…

Long over due

January 20, 2022 Kate4 Comments

I've not been too well. And I find if I am sick then I can't write. Anything to do with covid? I hear you cry. Randomly... No, I haven't had covid. Instead this is a long term problem that is caught up with me being a maturing female (46 now), which is annoying and, thanks… Continue reading Long over due

Busy today

April 13, 2021April 13, 2021 KateLeave a comment

Although not as busy as it could have been. Unfortunately, late last night we found out that due to a run over with another job, the framers can't make it until next week. I was miffed. But today there are smiles. You see the large cherry picker and frames, with possibly a crane, would not… Continue reading Busy today

Happy Halloween

October 28, 2020 KateLeave a comment

Most of you know that I'm studying for a PhD... Well this is my last year so I've been thinking... What next? Well, I have a plan. In the new year we are hoping to get the studio set up in the 'soon-to-be-converted' garage. This will mean I can start drawing and writing in earnest.… Continue reading Happy Halloween
