I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

Hooray!

I have a wardrobe again! 

Actually, that’s slightly misleading, because…

I have a w-a-r-d-r-o-b-e !! 

My hero and I have worked our little socks off today, beating off the perils of dodgy wall fixings and wonky drill bits, not to mention the after effects of a late night out with friends last night.  But our efforts are well rewarded in the most magnificently fitted out dressing room and similarly ordered but slightly smaller storage for my hero’s clothes. 

We are tired but triumphant.  There’s still work to be done, but really, there is light at the end of the tunnel at last.

I think I could live on the left side, if it is tall enough.. You wouldn't notice me, I can be very quiet

Bravo! I may come visit you just to put my clothes in your wardrobe. Move over, Jordi.

I live in the next village so I shall get there first! You'll have to buy new clothes for the new wardrobe Gill.

If this were New Mexico with the sky light - one's clothing would take on a different hue, as in sun-bleached. I still do not understand how to post more than a few lines.....

Great job Gill, the satisfaction of DIY is like nothing else lol.
My poor cougar is packed away in its box until the office is built, now when that is done I will definately have the DIY glow :)

Gill, for the life of me I was going to introduce how I came across your site and more than anything is your eye [photos] of New Mexico is my New Mexico. You capture the enchantment just as I see it. I also wanted to share with you my love of the weavers the Kozikowski's [Nancy H. and Janusz]. You have a photo of Janusz's weaving that hangs in the round state capitol building.
