Hubby works with a group of developers, constructions and property management companies. Each time they do a new development, they try to improve. They try to make it better.

Recently however one major hiccup they had was with the disposal of rubbish. The trash pump was not functioning well at one of the sites. They have had so many complaints. Poor Hubby. He sometimes gets the complaints even though it is not his jurisdiction. He comes home daily hoping that better ones will be installed.

These sort of things need to be done right, from the start.

Hmmm on second thoughts, and on a more serious note, perhaps I would like to spend some money…. on something I think we need. On some storage cabinets in the basement to be precise.

There are just too many things lying on top of surfaces and collecting dust. It’s best to put bits of equipment, cleaning and gardening tools away neatly so that they are readily available for when they are needed. What’s more, it would be a lot more pleasant on the eyes.

Time to sweet talk Hubby!

Talk about fitting in. Hubby has suddenly got a brain wave. He has finally decided that the house is in need of doing up again! Yes! After months of dropping hints that became less subtle as time went on, he has finally agreed! (Or was he worn down by my “consistency”? Probably!)

This is the time to bring up my new decorative idea - faux window. I love the idea of more wood, even if it isn’t real, to complement the floors we have. (The floors are lovely laminates!) These windows would fit in so well! Recently we visited a house with real wooden floors, wooden exteriors and even wooden beams at the doorways. Super!

Now to check our budget!

We have a basement. This is somewhat unusual for a tropical home like ours. It is however open planned style. “Open” in the sense it that there are no windows on one side and therefore it is open to the elements of strong tropical storms. Hence for that part of the house, we have to have basement tiles laid, unlike most the rest of the house. It’s the best!

My mind is going further afield. Ha! Ha!

I have told my Hubby that should we build a cabana, we ought have to complement it with teak wood patio furniture. This sort of furniture will make the new cabana outstanding, our home so much more rustic and welcoming. I can almost see it! The grainy lines being enhanced by the rising sun. Sipping my beloved Earl Grey in the cool of the morning as I watch the sun warm the land before me. I wonder when Hubby will come round to my idea!

Planning ahead again.

There’s a weekend away coming up and we usually have our breakfasts at the Cabana. This time however, we seem to have to negotiate harder to get meals there.

I would love to have a cabana of my own in my own house. The backyard might not be so suitable, but the side is promising. Perhaps I can persuade Hubby to agree to some changes. It would involve removing some of his plants though!!!
