Back from the highlands

Well what a drama!! I was all happily enjoying myself in the highlands and then the husband rings, really distressed about all the work on the extension etc (first test of married life!) so I ended up jumping in the car (with dad) and driving 300 miles (from dusk till dawn) back home again to be with him and organise everything. No wonder he was upset, the place looked like a bomb had hit it and it has taken me 2 days to make any inroads in to making it look any better! 

We have a dust cloth up which is separating the lounge from total chaos, the builders had had to form a bunny barrier using furniture, a clothes dryer and a section of carpet, we had no power from any electric points and the security alarm kept going off. The bunny is now ensconced in a back bedroom out of the way, the electrician has been and the alarm man and I have managed to hoover and dust. It is starting to look more like a house again. But the worst is behind us now... from now on they are starting to put stuff back in again. 

This is what my kitchen and dining room currently looks like...

My shortened holiday to the Highlands was great though, I managed an 8 mile bike ride with my dad which was amazing :) I still can't believe that I managed to get so far! Luckily only 4 miles was uphill, we then managed to cycle all the way home downhill which took about 15 minutes! Other than that we just went walking really and I made a start on the wedding scrap book. Unfortunately this had to be put away when I came home as there is simply no where at the moment for me to work on it. My crafting is pretty much on hold at the moment until the work finishes. I cannot wait for it to be over and to have my lovely new room!

Still appear to be hurtling through life without stabilizers or breaks!!!
