We are having new carpets fitted today, it's a two day job. :o They have just arrived so Chance and I are in the kitchen keeping out of the way. They have just asked if we wanted to keep any of the old carpet.We declined ;D
Oh gosh CC, new carpet is such a big job! Moving all the furniture etc out and then back again! It will be great when done though!

Thanks Denise, I've enjoyed my day at home.  Your house is going to look so good with new carpet throughout. Strange question from the installers unless it still looks good.

Ooh lovely CC. I bet you are pleased with the final result and glad to have it all over and done with!
 I always forget to to the "before" photos! -I'll try to do some 'during' and 'after' photos when we get our new floor on Wednesday.

Your new carpets look nice CC. 

I have spent the morning doing sewing repairs.  Not a job I enjoy.
The  man who said it can't be done should not interupt the woman doing it.

Your new carpets look lovely CC. I've spent the morning cleaning, just about to make some more Christmas cards, then dropping DD of at the airport, she's off to Bali for a week. Hope she has better weather than we have its been raining quite a bit today and quite windy.
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

Judy, hope you are feeling better.
CC, very nice. Looks like a very neat job. No, you certainly don't want the old carpet.

 A tad better thanks Chookie, still a long way to go.

We're sitting outside at our new care facility enjoying a rare warm day.  This is only a small section of it.

Denise your carpet looks lovely. Judy the new Morpeth looks lovely too.

We have been away for a few days. We went on a little trip called The Wheatbelt Way. http://www.wheatbeltway.com.au/
It was really lovely we took the baby A van and went with two other couples from car club. One has a Toyota Bus converted and the others brought their caravan. We did nearly. 1000km, visited some lovely Wheatbelt towns and saw some great scenery.
The first photo is a free camp we did called Billiburning Rock.
The second photo is taken at the Koorda Nature Reserve. There was still some wild flowers here to peek at, although they were past their prime. No orchids left though.

May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

The 'new Morpeth' is called Wesley House cookie.  You certainly covered some kms on that trip, I hope the weather was fine for your trip.  3 completely different camping set ups amongst you and your friends. Welcome back!

Judy, sorry to hear you are feeling off, you must be a little run down after all your hard work you put in at Wesley House, it looks lovely.
Denise, what a difference the new carpets have made, I bet it looks more spacious.
Cookie, you few days in the sun look lovely. Nice to get away from suburbia with like minded people.
