#21 Summer blog vacation

on
Hello everyone,

I first wanted to thank you for all your kind comments on my summer photos. It was nice to read them. It was a fun break from the renovation work.

As far as the renovation is concerned, I knew it would be A LOT OF work.... and I haven't been disappointed ;-)

I still have three weeks of hard work and then some finishing touches here and there when the joiner will have finished his part.

So far, I am very happy with how it turns out... though there have been some problems with the windows.  It is going to be fixed but it delays a bit the finishing time.

The good news, though is that my office/ workshop is completely finished and I will put everything back into place on Sunday. All my quilting and stitching stuff will come back to life again! Yipee!!!!

I will work a lot to finish what I have to finish before August 20th so that I have 10 days to prepare my next school year. That's why I put the blog on vacation this month and will be back in September.

Thanks again for stopping by, leaving a comment. Happy quilting and stitching to you all.

Until later,

Comments

    Hello David,

    Your summer photo game/communication way was the one of the cleverest things in blog land ever!

    I enjoyed too much to be part of it!

    I wish you a great weekend and a month for fixing everything smoothly :)

    Greetings from the city where two continents meet:))

    I enjoyed looking at all your photos David. I’m actually pleased that you shared it with us. :) Thank you. Anyway, Congratulations on finishing your office/workshop! I’m sure your students are enjoying learning from you. As for your home renovation, I hope you were able to resolve your problems with your windows. So, how was the summer renovation? Can we see some photos of it?
