A weekend of romance and stubborn windows........x

What a weekend! Am feeling exhausted already...it's Monday!!! It started like this........



Tea for the bumblebee's followed by a swift bath then story and bed all before 7pm, you see Mr.Q and I had romance planned, and the bumblebee's were NOT invited!
It is so easy to forget one another when there are little people about needing your attention constantly ( which I do love B.T.W..... I don't mean to moan about it! ) and a little effort and a twinkle in an eye is needed every now and then..
So a phone call was made to a very busy Q that afternoon requesting "please come home feeling romantic".....which resulted in him plucking daffodils out of the garden on his way home...see I don't mind! I would rather use our daff's than buy them from a shop for £1.50 a bunch....and a feeble bunch it would be too.....good old Q. 


Candles, drinks, pudding ,snuggles and a film......this was my perfect Friday night.


And then it started........................................................................................................................



What were we thinking? A little paint job??? NO Mrs.Q...that would be too easy, you must learn the hard way...


Rotten window frames, 20 yrs + of gloss paint, and stubborn putty......paint job turned into restoration.....
Can't wait to see it finished, but my goodness...such hard work!



Do you ever feel like you have bitten off more than you can chew????? Wish us luck....and no rain, definitely no rain.
But I do love a sash window, don't you????
How was your weekend?
