Refresh Me

When I caught up on some of my blog reading this morning I was inspired by Louise's from Table Tonic's energetic painting weekend. So when I inadvertently stumbled across an old tin of grey paint while looking for decking oil in our shed, I opted for the "more results quicker", forgot about the decking oil and decided to finally spruce up the ugly white boards at the front of the house.

Of course I forgot to take a before picture so here is the front porch being set up the day we got married.

The pretty lights and furniture are a distraction from how urglee the white boards were.

And this afternoon when I had finished the first coat of grey

(and yes, there sits another of my half finished projects, a couple of cane
chairs I am in the process of repainting).

May I just say, I rolled my ankle twice during this supreme effort of mine - firstly when I fell off the chair I was using as a ladder and secondly, a few hours later when I fell through the chair I was using as a ladder because it ahem, broke. Nicole, the universe is pleading with you.

    I had been hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyhow, should you have
    any recommendations or techniques for new blog owners please share.

  5. Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this
    site? I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've
    had issues with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  7. Its such as you read my thoughts! You appear to know a lot approximately this,
    like you wrote the ebook in it or something. I feel that you simply could do with a few percent to drive the
    message home a bit, however instead of that, that is wonderful blog.
    An excellent read. I will certainly be back.

  9. Hiya! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to resolve this issue.

    If you have any recommendations, please share. Cheers!

  10. Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.

    The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Chrome.
    I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.

    The design look great though! Hope you get
    the problem resolved soon. Thanks
