i hope it’s like riding a bike…

I’ll fill you in on all the uninteresting things that have been occurring as and when I can be arsed, which might mean that it never happens knowing my ‘heroes’-like ability to procrastinate.

Although I will say that we finally got our bedroom finished!

Well, when I say finished… of course I don’t really mean finished. We don’t have any blinds or a lampshade, or bedside tables or table lamps. But we do have 1 green wall, 3 pale sandstone-y coloured walls, freshly white glossed woodwork, a new carpet, new ultra bouncy underlay and beautiful crisp white bedding.

I sometimes wonder if it’s healthy to be so in love with your bed. Any semi-feasible excuse and you’ll find me lounging on it, sleeping on it or watching TV on it.

I wouldn’t mind so much, but it’s not even THAT comfortable. We bought it when we first met 7 years ago… so now it’s pretty tired (especially as it was a super cheapo one). Nevertheless, I hate to be away from it… there’s nothing quite like moulding back into the familiar dips after being separated for even a short while.

Oh, and if I were to win even a smallish amount of money… first thing I would buy? One of those super-king size orthopaedic ultra firm ones with a lovely thick softy mattress topper and beautiful Irish linen.

As that’s not gonna happen anytime soon… tell me about your favourite place to lay your head… do you like it hard? soft? firm but yielding? or just super squishy? *and don’t think I can’t see some of you smirking over there*

…………..

Oh, and here’s our new carpet:

Please excuse the ridiculously low ap throughout the pictures… the sun has completely refused to show it’s face for ages, so despite our room having lovely big windows, it’s like a soddin’ dungeon in there.
