My copy of Apartment Therapy turned up today and I’m very excited. We have a lot of unfinished rooms around the house, and a lot of stuff that lives on the floor. I found the pictures on the website really inspiring, with so much achieved in such small spaces, and in such a short space of time (although I’m sure that normal people would find eight weeks quite a long period of time to accomplish something like that..)

So, in the New Year we’ll be embarking first on the 8 week deep treatment, which is a way of clearing your entire house of rubbish and detritus, doing those repairs we’ve been ignoring and giving it all a good old clean. Then we’ll pick a room and do an eight week entire makeover. Actually Isaac doesn’t know any of this yet – I thought I’d surprise him. It’s his reward for leaving wood propped on the stairs for the best part of a year.

(Yes, I could do it myself without recourse to a book, but it’s a project when there’s a book involved. I like projects.)

And in other news…
Not for the easily offended: I sometimes check my logs to see who’s visiting, if anyone is visiting, and why they might be coming here. The other day I spotted a referral from google india, that I had to click on. Personally, it think it’s hilarious=, and of course, now I’ve posted it I’ll be the number one result for that particular search term…
