On family, children, sewing, running, renovating – and this and that

When it rains, it pours

May 26th, 2008 Posted in Day to day, Frida, The house

It’s pouring! Has been ever since we got up at around 5:30 a.m. Everywhere in the house I can hear the rain tapping on the windows and even though it’s early afternoon, it’s just so dark in here, that I lit some candles to cheer it up a bit.

Mads finished white washing the other end wall yesterday, and it looks great even though it’s screaming for a new front door! We have the door already – it’s in the garage, waiting for Mads to finish all of the white washing and painting of the woodworks. He’s returning the scaffold today, so it’s a good thing he has finished both of the tall end walls. Again, this is not dry yet, but you get the impression. The picture was taken yesterday evening - when it didn’t rain! ;)

The other end wall 

I finished the “Tie-back” tunic from the latest issue of Ottobre, and I wanted to write a bit about that as well, only it’s so dark, it’s impossible to get a decent shot of the dress. I’ll have to wait for the weather to clear up – hopefully today.

Otherwise, it’s just one of those days when you want to curl up on the couch with a blanket, a book, and a cup of hot cosiness. It’s funny actually – Frida seems to feel the same way…

    Hold op hvor er det blevet flot – og hvor er der pludselig sket meget herinde på bloggen. Må vist hellere holde lidt bedre øje….

    Mormor – tak skal du have – ja, det skal da vist heller ikke vare så længe. ;)

    Katja – tusinde tak, helt færdigt er det jo ikke, men det er bestemt på vej. Ja, jeg havde et tidspunkt, hvor det enten var lukke eller blogge – og så valgte jeg at blogge… ;) Du er meget velkommen – holder også øje med jer!
