Things are definitely coming along nicely with the house. You might not think it from the photos, but we've made a huge amount of progress recently! We had the plumbers in on Monday, redoing all the pipework in the house and Thursday/Friday we had the electricians, who have done all the ground work and now just need to fit plug sockets and light switches. The electrics have been a huge job, so it's a relief to have that nearly finished.
We ourselves had quite a productive day at the house yesterday, trying to get as much done in the kitchen as possible before it's delivered on Monday or Tuesday. The kitchen fitter is in tomorrow to do some plastering to cover up the electricity tracks in the walls. It's all go go go! Things seem to have really sped up this week!
We're now officially back in lockdown, but other than not being able to go out for a coffee, life hasn't changed much for Mum, Dad and I. I'm still at school, and we're still renovating the house and going to B&Q. Matt's still at work too, but can no longer play football at the weekends, go to the gym or go to the pub, so things have changed the most for him. I'm fine with the lockdown, but can't really understand why the government didn't close schools down for an extended break over half term. That made perfect sense to me! Instead, I ended up working 6 hour days with the half term club, with kids from 5 different schools! I'm glad it's over, because to be honest I wasn't particularly happy being there with so many children. I wore my face mask for the entire week, but was the only one who did. Now it's back to 2 or 3 hours in the afternoons, with the same group of 5 children, so I feel much better. I'll continue up until the Christmas holidays and then start my maternity leave! It's creeping up on us so quickly!
