My eBay coffee table is still sitting in the alfresco room waiting to be stripped, sanded and refinished before being installed in its new home in the lounge.
 |
| Meanwhile, it's a handy addition to our outdoor room. |
The daybed is sadly in need of that seat pad I've been going to make. The "temporary" cushions I threw on it back in September are still there.
 |
| Hmm. Not quite the look I wanted. |
Our outdoor furniture languishes in the sun, in desperate need of a couple of coats of oil.
 |
| Thank goodness for quality timber; it doesn't look too shabby. |
The garden screens all want a coat of oil or sealer (not bad after almost two years...).
 |
| A little discolouration appearing. |
 |
| Nothing some Ultradeck can't fix |
"That" pot cupboard is still in the garage, waiting for a do-over of the paint job that didn't work out the way I envisaged.
 |
| I know it's under there somewhere. |
The laundry and my walk in robe are both so embarrassingly untidy that I'm not even going to show you a photo. No, I haven't yet trekked down to IKEA for some storage solutions...
And it's now the 8th day of the New Year and our Christmas tree hasn't even been packed away. I'm avoiding that job because there is zero fun in it.
 |
| If I leave it up much longer, it'll be Christmas 2012! |
On the other hand, I have watched a ton of DVDs, read a couple of books, had my hair done, watched a good chunk of the mega-exciting Australia vs India 3rd test match, slept, shopped, been to the theatre and generally relaxed.
So I guess my holidays haven't been a complete waste of time then. :)

Not to worry - after a lovely relaxing holiday you will feel refreshed and ready to tackle all those projects! (That's my excuse at the moment anyway) :) Beautiful Christmas tree by the way.
Thanks Anna! Trouble is, once I'm back at work, there's no time for anything... Oh well, I still have a week to go. Maybe I can get some of it done. :)
