Maybe some of you are not so interested in renovated rooms, sorry, but I am so excited, when I see the room with little beds, I see babies laying in them and how better and more safer we can work now! So here they are again, pictures of rooms, but I start with the kitchen:
This is such a make-over!!! We have tiles up to the ceiling, easier to clean and it looks so nice and light!! The fridge and the stove will have to come back from Amun, where we use them now, we would love to get a new stove and fridge, then the old ones can go back to Amun house. But for now we will get the old ones back. The staff is also excited, they said, now I want to do the dishes here!
The furniture is still very okay to use, but after all those years it could use a new layer of varnish. So all the furniture, which has been packed under the car park for more than 2 months, was brought out under the trees to be worked on. While I was busy inside, Cathy was outside, helping the two men with varnishing!!!! She was very proud of her work! During the days is it sunny and hot, everything dries very fast.
Winnie, Barbara and Deborah are organizing the wardrobes in the hallway. We are blessed with many sheets, blankets, covers, towels and other things, this is again an opportunity to organize it better, people who have been with us, know that those wardrobes are always so difficult to keep tidy....
But we try it again.......
This is the first room which is ready, the beds are even made ready for the babies to lay in. The only thing missing are the mosquito nets, but they are coming... I can get excited when I see this room, thinking about all the little babies we will have sleeping (and crying probably :)) in these beds. The metals on top of the beds are for the nets, we don't have to put hooks in the ceiling, but the net is right on the little bed.
This afternoon suddenly dark clouds came, so all the chairs which were still a bit wet from the varnish were brought into the house, so they would not get wet. You can see the dining tables at the back and the electrician is repairing some lamps.
This is taken from the other side of the living room and you can see the sofa's, with new covers, which were made by friends from the Dutch team that was here! O and I can see that the electrician has to hang the lamps on the same height....:) so that are the things we are busy with now....
Will be continued.....
I am so excited tooooooo!I love what Cathy is doing. She is my hero!
