Just read my previous post

I've fallen back into my life so easily after coming back from Dorset. I suppose that is to be expected. It's rather like New year's resolutions. You have great resolve at the time but quickly forget about them. However, I still have change in my mind and have tweaked my life in some ways. (More of that later.)

We were back for just a few days when Mr. Egloff, who does various work around the house for us, dropped by to say that he would start painting the dining room and kitchen, and the stairwell on the following Monday. We knew that he would be coming in the fall sometime but I had almost forgotten about it. We are now into the second week and the house has been transformed. It is a chaos but beneath the chaos is emerging a beautiful house. I can't quite believe that a coat of paint (expertly applied!) could make such a difference. We now know that we do want to buy the house and we also want him to continue upstairs and also into the living room.

(I'll post more later today!)

Will you be posting photos when Mr. Elgoff completes the painting?
