This week, we've been doing some last odd jobs to the new rooms.- Painted the front door, and added foam and dust guard to seal off drafts.
- Hung the two interior doors.
- Wired up all the plugs and lights.
- Made and hung curtains.
- Made and varnished a book shelf on the staircase.
We are now, in theory, ready to move in. In practice, we are all sick and don't feel like doing anything!
Leo came down with this stinking cold and cough first, then Abe, and now it got me too. Of course Leo is starting to feel better and gaining energy hourly, while we, on the other hand, are gradually drooping further and further down towards the nearest soft area.
The other day, Leo was coughing so hard he threw up. It is only the second time he's ever vomited (the first being when I took Vitamin C without knowing that he would react to it when breastfeeding). He's actually had very few colds. We've been pretty lucky really.
To make things worse, we have had raging wind the past few days. It's nice inside the house, but you can't go outside with this wind, and none of us are used to being inside for so long. Oh well, forecast for tomorrow and next week is calm, warm and sunny, so something to look forward to as we all recover.
