We didn’t manage to get everything finished in Baby Davey’s room last weekend as Ross came down with a cold and was in bed for two days, and I had back pain, leaving me even more useless than normal.
So we had one last push this weekend which was very productive. Ross finished off the last few things in Baby Davey’s room. Once the carpet is being fitted on Thursday, only pictures and curtains are left to go up. We should also be able to get all the baby paraphernalia that is currently in cardboard boxes in the front room, put away properly. At last!
Ross even managed to fit a new light at the top of the stairs, which was rather more complicated than we first imagined. Looks like the baptism of fire he had when sorting the light out in the nursery put him in good stead as once he’d decided what he was going to do, the re-wiring caused no problems at all. It was attaching the thing to the ceiling that caused the most aggravation! Still, it’s up and looks great. (Better than the ugly yellow and black thing that was there before that had one lamp missing, and one bulb that kept flickering!)
In other news, I’ve got to see a physio about my back. I was given a rather attractive tubigrip by my midwife last week when I told her about the pain I was in, and told to see my GP if it didn’t get any better. So, I went this morning, and I’ve been referred to a physio who will hopefully help me manage better.
