Painting and Roof Fixing (Day 7) - Last Day

Last Day - Monday, 27 April 2009

Final touch-up.

Before they fixed the roof last Monday, the air-conditioning compressor and the Astro had to be taken down. The compressor was put up last Saturday, and the paint was touched up on Monday. The Astro will be re-installed today. So, poor Jordan couldn't watch Astro for about 2 weeks. He misses his Animal Mechanicals show. And my poor brother Alex couldn't watch his football matches as well.

Painting and Roof Fixing (Day 6)

(Saturday, 25 April 2009.)

Painting completed.

I was really happy with the blue paint but the finishing paint of the gate and grilles saddens me. We agreed on the blue colour but the supposedly 'brown' colour was chosen by Seng Chor without consulting us. He said that it was brown on the catalogue but it turned to be REDdish brown. We are extremely disappointed. My sister commented cynically - "Our house now looks like a Chinese Temple." Visitors will definitely never miss our house - it's the brightest in the row.
Urgh!

The new light chosen by Seng Chor is a consolation.
(By the way, red happens to be Seng Chor's favourite colour.)

Cherry Wood Furniture

I have been wanting to get a furniture for the entrance of my house. Finally, my wish came true - 3-piece Cherry Wood furniture from Aunty Helen's moving out sale. Though I may not be sitting on the chairs much, looking at them, gives me a sense of contentment and joy. It adds beauty to the home. :)

Thank God for this new acquisition.
