new years renovation

// January 6th, 2010 // Family, Inspiration

It’s the start of a brand new year so Merry Christmas and a Happy 2010 to you!

My year kicked off to a fairly unusual start with a day spent in my bathroom. Thankfully it was not due to any need to deposit the contents of my stomach due to some new years swine bird bug. It was more happily due to the need to renovate my bathroom after putting up with a room that had last seen some care and attention before time began.

It felt quite therapeutic to be honest. Ripping out the old taps and ceramic furniture that had persistently screamed of some previous pre-Ikea life. (Check out the Twitpics down the sidebar). Although the fun soon ended as I found myself faced with 30 years of collective grime hidden under taps and down pipes. But soon that was all gone and in went the brand spanking new bathroom ware that brought an air of hygenic cleanliness that was almost next to godliness.

And so we start the new year with an almost-finished bathroom. Well… there’s still a few things I didn’t quite get done before the holidays ended and the usual work load reappeared. But… I’m determined to get things done by the end of the month.

The whole thing just sums up my year to be honest! I’m not too interested in Resolutions and more interested in a New Years Renovation! Time to rip out the old stuff and the old ways and build something fresh and new! It’s time to make some radical changes and really lift the lid on all that’s gone before. Time to live the best life yet!
