Good Morning - its Monday!!!

Hi all,

What a weekend, wish it didn't go so fast- really we need a 3 day weekend to get everything done.

It was a sourcing day on Saturday for me - a reno that I am assisting at present in Ramsay and tiles was on the agenda.  There are so many beautiful tiles out there now, unfortunately not a huge amount of choices in Toowoomba so the trusty ipad was very handy searching for tiles down in Brisbane.

One of my favourite tile shops would have to be Traditional Tiles - owned by a lovely lady who lives in Toowoomba , and I have learnt that it used to be in Toowoomba before my time here. What a shame its still not here.

Driving on a Saturday is always a pleasure - when you work all week in Gatton and only see the surrounds of where you work mainly at lunch time , it's so nice to go exploring on the weekends down town in Toowoomba.
I also found a cute shop in Highfields on the way home  that had just opened with an equally cute name Omgoss?? They have some reasonably priced french pieces among other bits and pieces and I wish them all the best.

It was my partners 2nd eldest sons birthday on Friday night so again I was out numbered by all the boys in his family.  It was a great night, a little quiet for a 19th however it wasn't too hard to get up on the Saturday after it thank goodness.And awesome cake from the Cheesecake shop went down rather well.

The weather was great yesterday  with me driving out the Goondiwindi to help Jessica move some pieces of furniture back into our shed.  What a long drive it was , although when you do arrive there it is always nice and quiet and having lunch at the Railway Hotel is always worth the drive. Catching up with my youngest is always interesting -finding out the goss in her life , keeps me on my toes and my mouth open catching flies as she goes in to the finer details.  Oh to be young and carefree again!!


So after a very quick weekend and feeling like i did nothing I received an "after photo" from lovely Jo who adores her revamped piano seat and thought i would share the before and after transformation for anyone who is wanting to change theirs.(see above)

Happy Monday , have a great day
