The weekend! We had a very slow start due to JM’s gig last
night. We finally got to the house around lunchtime then we left James with the
dog while we took Shabana and Callum to pick paint colours. They both wanted
very bright colours but we managed to tone down the choices to something
acceptable. A quick stop at Canadian Tire for a saw and new reciprocating saw
blades, a visit to the local library ( just 3km away) then back to attack the
wallpaper.
JM and I had a fun time discovering history on the walls while the
boys chopped down another tree sized shrub. The signatures hidden behind the
wallpaper dated back to 1906! How spectacular! We snapped photos since we’re
going to be painting and the writing will never be seen again.

The boys enjoyed
removing the shrub, boys with their toys eh? It had to come out, JM had named
it the poo tree since it was located right next to the septic tank. Another
plant in the wrong place. Another quick bonfire then we headed home. A very
productive day.
