..after several impatient weeks the new carpet comes tomorrow and the hardwood floors the day after - Hooray!
I can't tell you how sick and tired I am of living in mayhem and mess but there was hardly any point in unpacking and putting rooms together only to have to shift it all again to get the new carpet in.
I've been trying to complete artwork that is due for several projects on a sawhorse table and using a cardboard box for a cutting mat, running to Staples and Target each time I needed some bit of paper or implement to get stuff done as all my Studio equipment is still in boxes...ugh! And tonight I'll have to unplug the computer and printer again and move it all out of the way - I guess I can do it, just ONE more time!
In between my mess, life goes on! I had the wonderful opportunity to meet up with one of my brothers this past weekend. He lives in Vietnam and was over for business. It's probably well over a year since I saw him last and was lovely to be in the same space on the planet, even if for a short while.
I've been remiss in keeping up with Blog-land buddies with all that has been going on, so I apologize. Carla very kindly nominated with her Intrepid Artist award. A while ago Ro nominated me with the Thinking Blogger award. My other friend Carla, nominated me as her Rockin' Blogger and latterly Sarah and Christine have both tagged me with the Middle Name Meme.
So, tonight before I unplug and get cracking on some more moving, I'll leave you with a photo that I took a few days ago in Soho. Great amusement listening to the passers by, who were trying to figure out if these chaps were sculptures of mimes!
And...the middle name game
ALISON
A- Adventurous, definitely!
L - Lively
I - Insatiable appetite for learning new things and exploring
O - Open minded (gawd I lived all over the world, who couldn't be!)
N - Never say NEVER! (except perhaps to moving again in under 12 months!)
See you all again when I am a little further down the domestic path of peace and tranquility!
Good luck Marie, it sounds like it's been a night mare. Thinks will get better.
