Yeah, there haven't really been any house posts this year- most of the work has been on my mother-in-law's house, making it suitable for her return after post-stroke rehab. Thankfully we had an actual builder do the the conversion of one end of her living room into a wet room (toilet/shower), cos that would have been beyond me.

I must say, its a lovely shower too - much better than ours. So since she's not home yet, I've been using it. Lovely, with a view of trees and fields...

Damn shame its the time of year where I used it half an hour ago and already want to go back again, cos it's clouding over but the air is getting heavy and thick. Is stewed...

Also, we now have the garden fence replaced - with this trellis type which gales can go through without knocking down. I didn't do this one myself, though; Lesley's mum had booked a proper fence-putter-upper guy before she went into hospital. I will have to weatherproof it, though, but it's too late to do it tonight.

Despite Lesley promising to defer to me in (re)filling the (new) bookshelves and stuff, she insisted on being allowed to do some herself, and has put all the history books on the shelves more or less randomly, whereas I had them - and wanted to redo them - in chronological order.

So I'll have to spend a day next week swapping them all round!

Is it wrong of me to be bugged by the history books not being in period order?
