Yay for our new curtains!

Third blog post this morning and it's not even 10am! You might think someone has hacked my blogger account but it's really me. I just have a lot of random things to tell you today if you care to listen. Or read.

So we've been in the new house now for. Umm. Hold on let me check. 13 weeks today! Or exactly 3 months actually.

We have this lovely big window in our lounge which was just desperate for curtains. It lets in so much sunlight in the afternoons which is lovely but it also lets in the neighbours and the dark at night. Not that the neighbours have really been in our house but you know, they can see us because they too have very large curtainless windows. You see, the windows are too big for ready made curtains so you have to have some made. But before you can have them made you have to decide on fabric and that was the really challenging part for me.

I've never before had to choose curtains. Have I told you this here before? It feels like I've said this before. Anyway. After almost three months we (read I because I think Andre was pretty happy with anything by this time) finally decided on the fabric we found with mom and Jürgen two months ago. I just had to make sure.

We placed the order and was told it will take 2-4 weeks. I think that was about 2 or 3 weeks ago so this week I finally got to go pick them up. I was so worried that I won't like it but I do like it. It's lovely and pretty and cosy and just perfect in our living room now.

Oh you wanted to see a picture? Sorry here it is!

Open

 See what I mean, the neighbours either don't have curtains or just don't bother to close them. See their open windows across the street?

and closed.

It looks even prettier in real life :-)


Ok I'm off to gym now. I need to wash my hair and the showers at the gym are fantastic.
