2023 in Pisticci….end of one job …..

I didn’t even take a photo of the little house today as all I did was paint a matt varnish over all the painted bits. Using a water based varnish makes everything very easy .

As I didn’t start work till after 9.30am I had plenty of time to sit outside and enjoy the morning.

My current favourite breakfast. Scrambled eggs and hot chilli sauce.
Somebody has lit a fire…. might be the workers from the comune who seem to be everywhere tidying up.

I even had time to try out a few ideas to upgrade my floor. I’m thinking of sponging it and then varnishing it. After having bought paint which was supposed to be really hard-wearing and isn’t, then I may as well spend an hour or so every year revarnishing a paint effect.

Tried out a few ideas using my paint app.

I haven’t done much else today.

I decided to get Netflix 2 nights ago after getting very bored watching repeats of Location, location,location. When I discovered that it would cost about €5.50 monthly and I had just paid €4.99 for one Commissario Brunetti book on kindle it seemed like a very good idea. Also despite sending the correct form by registered post to say I don’t have a TV I’m having to pay for a TV licence along with my electric bill.

I’m really enjoying Frankie and Grace.

Tomorrow morning I’m planning to get out early and paint a red flower in a pot near my door and then I’m considering having a lemon and orange tree on either side of my other door.

After that I might think about starting on the floor.. ….

I’m all prepared to sleep downstairs tonight as the temperature has risen to 30C.

My bedroom tonight….?

But now it’s wine time.

Cheers🍷🍷
