The Big Push Day 4

We got up at five thirty, bleary eyed and a little tired, i went down and made the coffee whilst ant sorted himself out. By Six thirty we were on the road, the dogs came with us for a change as there was nowhere in the house we could leave them where Ruby wouldn't chew a bit of furniture. I dropped ant off and was back home just before nine, so i made a couple of phone calls then steeled myself to the days tasks, i started on the outbuilding, this took a couple of hours but i got it finished, just the edging to do now. I decided to have a short rest before second coating the floor, but then thought i would just get on with it and get it done, so another couple of hours on that and i had finished the work planned for the day. I left the living room shut up and didn't even attempt to look at the finished result, it changes so much.
Since i was here alone i decided now would be a good time to rest, had ant been home i may have been spurred on to attempt something else as well, but i cuddled down with the dogs and watched some tv with a nice ham and tomato baguette. The rest of the day was a series of tv watching and eating, i saw another Studio Ghibli animè, which was good but very confusing, and another film. At six thirty i came down to make my dinner and phone gran, steak and chips again but it was very good. Gran asked me to sort out a lap top for dad for his birthday so i did that whilst she was on the phone and i checked ants holiday dates to see if we were free for the 29th November as gran is organizing a Christmas lunch at her favorite restaurant of the moment, we are free but i said i would have to discuss it with ant first.
An easy evening in front of the tv then followed, two episodes of Jam and Jerusalem, and then something incredibly banal, then i decided enough was enough and headed off to bed, i managed to read for a little while then dropped off to sleep. Another busy day tomorrow, i need to go back to Arras to pay for the sander, then get the big bedroom organized for painting and paint it, all fun fun fun, catch you soon
