upstairs
Day Twenty-Five
We have more evidence of actual rooms today, the insulation and plasterboard have formed a wee cupboard and the suggestion of walls too. Very exciting but the space is still shrinking…..we were upstairs at the weekend measuring and laying out planks to see exactly where the rooms will be. The front two are bigger than I expected but we are worried about our bed fitting in where we want it in the back room. Hmmmm. We will sort it out I’m sure. Here’s today’s evidence:-
Other Stuff
These lovely flowers should be in bloom by June/July so I will be sure to show you them when they appear. I love the idea of having an area in the garden for growing flowers to cut. I would need to be very clever and plant them so we have flowers from early spring to early winter. Maybe that’s a project to start this Autumn.

Day Twenty-Four
That’s five weeks down now, 4 new windows and 2 completed dormers this week. We’re going to add an extra Velux window above the new stairs too next week. The stairs are ordered and so are the windows for the dormer. Progress indeed.
It feels like things are coming together, the perimeter of the upstairs will start to be boarded up next week. Guessing the upstairs will shrink even more then. It is hard to explain, but when you’re actually up there is does not feel big enough to have 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. Once the space is more defined then it will be amazing to see the rooms develop and become more tangible.
We are coping fine with just a bath and toilet bathroom, best not to think about hand washing after the toilet where the children are concerned. Wonder when the shower and screen will arrive.
The sun is shining on Edinburgh right now. Long may it shine on you too. Have a great weekend. x
