Little Prince had a long nap this afternoon, and I took advantage of this unexpected free time to get the woodwork in the bathroom, sanded, wiped and painted. It took so much longer than I thought, about 4 hours!! There is hardly any woodwork in there, so I have no idea why?!? But at least now it is done :-) The paint is a one coat gloss (well satin as I don't like overly shiny paint) and it looks ok with just one coat. Although I'll have to reserve judgment until tomorrow when I can see it in daylight! Hopefully it will be ok - fingers crossed. If it is ok with just the one coat, then I can get the bookcase put back in there (doesn't everyone have a bookcase in the bathroom lol??) and a quick clean round before the cleaners arrive in the afternoon to do a proper clean! Handyman is due to come round at some point tomorrow morning too, to fix one of the wall lights and replace the mirror. Hopefully everything will be done before the cleaners arrive!!
I had hoped to take the children out somewhere nice in the afternoon, but I'd forgotten about Drama Teen's rearranged Fracture Clinic appointment in the afternoon, so we will probably just nip out for lunch somewhere instead.
I've managed to book LMS into a highly recommended local hairdressers on Saturday, she is having a consulatation with the Creative Stylist (whatever that is?!?!) about a new style and is also booked in to have her hair coloured. Her hair is naturally a lightish brown, and she wants to it to be dark brown. As she has an interview for the Disney Summer job soon (we don't know exactly when) she wants to have her hair professionally done, rather than done by Mr Messy. And at the moment the bathroom is unusable anyway, so she'd have to have it done at a shop lol. Mr Messy is taking her back and fixing her car while he is there, so at least she won't have to battle with the awful Sunday trains!!
