Windows!!!!!!

Get ready for a photo overload! Couldn't contain my excitement to see (nearly all) the windows and doors in! Getting a better feel for each room day-by-day.  When I drove past and saw the windows, I was ecstatic. I then noticed something that made my heart sink (very dramatic!). Actually it sent me into a slight mental spin and panic (I then had a reality check!). Our entertaining sliding doors (in the meals) were opening the wrong way....... I raced home as fast as I could and grabbed the plans and yes, we made our first mistake. I knew it would happen at some point but was slightly gutted it was such a large thing for us to muck up. The doors were supposed to open to the right (from the inside) - as displayed - but we hadn't noticed they were going to the left. I quickly rang A & L to see if it was even possible to change them (yet to hear back) and also phoned our SS James. He is a legend. Well if he comes through with the goods he is! He said that he has a few people that owe him a few favours and that he will get them changed!! After I had calmed down, the reality is, that they would be fine as they are but they would be perfect as we envisaged. We wanted both entertaining sliders to slide outwards so the house would open up and this would change that. The doors are incredible but I'm crossing my fingers in all directions they can be switched. Replacing the doors is easier said than done, due to the size and the fact they are double glazed.

The weather has been a bit wet. Nothing over the top; a few showers here and there, yet the house seems to have more water inside than there is out..... Another issue or rather something we noticed is that the window reveals (some) have got wet in the recent showers. Hoping this isn't an issue but will definitely be checking up on this (maybe after the doors get changed!). I also don't understand how builders can get mud everywhere, like everywhere! Mud caked on the underside of the door jamb.....???? More women need to become builders because that would never happen!!! Ha!
