I need a weekend from my weekend.....
Sunday, August 02, 2009This past week has been a week full of rain here in Leicester. None stop rain. Rain that is soft and constant one minute and then changes to a sudden down pour in a matter of seconds and ends up last an hour or more. Tuesday evening, at 10:50, i had just gotten settled down in bed. You know that warm fuzzy feeling you get after a long hard day? That was where i was at when i heard this noise as if someone had turned a top on in the kitchen. I got out of bed, turned the light on and found myself a waterfall running our of the light fitting in my hallway. Not only did i have a floor covered in water but i managed to fill up three huge pan fulls of water before it start to subside!
Needless to say i had to turn off all my electricity and move out of my flat for three days while they sorted out the roof and then the electric. My friend came round to climb into my attic to see if he could find the leak and in the process he managed to totally demolish my bookshelf that held ALL my art supplies. So i had to find a new solution. It got delivered Saturday morning.
So here are some photos so that you can truly appreciate just why i need a weekend after this weekend! This was the corner where my new chest of draws was to go once it arrived. Not too bad you say! Wait for the next photos....lol!


This is where i stored all those said art supplies until my new chest of draws were delivered. And then the second photo was taken Sunday afternoon - after i had finally managed to finish cleaning my lounge, bedroom, hallway, bathroom and store room!



Here are some photos of inside my new chest of draws. This great buy has six draws but don't worry - i am only showing you two of them. On a side note - i found this little treasure at one of my local second hand shop. It cost me £49 with delivery and is perfect for what i need it for.
