21st day of lock down

In the last 7 days,
I've done an audit of my homes wiring, found circuit breaker number 3 had nothing on it and circuit breaker 6 had 12 outlets (think I'm going to have a bit of re-wiring once my basement walls come down).

Looking for jobs around the house, I discovered my 3 tonne concrete patio has sunk about 22 mm (3/4 of an inch or there abouts) over the last 10 years. Belly crawling under the kitchen floor I discovered the entrance foyer also sits on the sinking concrete patio. Both front doors have been difficult over the last 10 years and adjustments have been made to the doors. Since I have spare time,  I decided to pick up the front of the house and fit 20 mm shims, made the entrance foyer level and all the doors working like new.

Girl time - lucky if I get an hour a morning, wife not overly happy and wants me to "save up" my need and once lock down is over, to have regular girl time out of town.

One hour - not even enough time to shave, get dressed and stay home.
So I skip the shaving and keep the clothes to something simple to dress into 😃

Day 14 of lock down

So I built foundations and a floor for my shed, moved it 40 meters, added solar lights, labeled all the tools.

 

I've also scrubbed the kitchen walls and painted the kitchen. I finished off the bathroom plumbing as the plumbers couldn't finish due to the lock down - painted it as well (wife bought 14 litres / 3.7 gallons of paint before lock down).

Wife advised me the other night that our daughter and son-in-law might be staying an extra few years in our house (they have the downstairs area and we share the kitchen). Anyway I decided nail polish was okay since they are staying a lot longer than July.

Yesterday I was sitting on the deck in grey tights with my wife, when the son-in-law came up and presented our grand child for a 15 minute visit.

Today wife and daughter went to the shops, so I allowed myself 30 minutes of dress up time (okay I was cleaning the fridge & freezer). Just my youngest, son-in-law and my grandchild was home.

 

Yes, we have teddy bears in our windows - I know it's based on some children's book that I haven't read, but the families with young children doing their daily walk appreciate the bear hunt.

Looks like New Zealand is on the right track to be virus free in the next couple of months, the scientists and politicians are all doing the right thing, as are 98% of the population.
