Took a couple of weeks out to...

ONE-Empty the garage, before it was knocked down. Completely erased to make way for a new room!
That meant erecting a shed, en bod, ett skjul kanske! This is a beautiful wooden little house which I am going to paint falu rodfarg-a Swedish old fashioned preserving colour and paint.
TWO- Move into the shed and do this in our one weekend of hot weather!
THREE-Arrival of demolishers/builders and the digging out of a foundation.
FOUR-Moving a birch tree. I pray it survives.
FIVE-Clearing out the yard so that it can get wrecked!
SIX- Arrival of a friend from Australia.
SEVEN-Preparations for a big birthday weekend party! Friends coming from all over including the US.
EIGHT-Luna having her kittens, three of them.
NINE-Having my hair straightened and finding a new dress for my party.
TEN-Enjoying it all to the max!
