Some time ago I ordered new chests for our bedroom. Delivery was 4 - 6 weeks.......I rang a couple of weeks ago, but they had no idea when they would be delivered, but I would get an email.
Yesterday afternoon I was talking to my neighbour when a van drew up on the front. We carried on talking and then N said, 'I think that chap wants you' I turned round and he was delivering the 2 chests..... no email, so to say the least I was surprised. We decided to unpack them on the front, so the rubbish could go straight in to the bin and then M carried them in. So my job this morning is to empty the old chest drawers onto the bed, and then fill the new drawers when they are in position.
Yesterday was a lovely sunny day and it did get quite warm, apparently we have more of the same today, although it feels chilly at the moment.
The clothes I ordered also came yesterday, I tried them on last night, I should really have ordered the shorter length trousers, but I will turn them up by hand, cut off the existing hem and overlock the edge and then hem them. The 2 tee shirts and the soft wool jumper I ordered fit fine, and for once the colours are ok too. So thats me set up for the next 10 years!!! It must be that long since I bought my last lot of trousers, so they will now be 'work trousers' and I will use the others for 'best'.
DB will be out in the garden later. The two chaps are here doing the coping stones on the roof, they rang yesterday asking if they could come earlier, no problem, at least I will not have to worry when we get the next storm.
So apart from sorting out the new drawers, that will be me for the day. I am taking my painkillers at least twice a day just now.
Casseroled beef and veggies tonight, no dessert we finished the raps in jelly last night.
