Friday Five and renovation





Good morning, 

I'm back after very busy and dirty weeks.
Time to join again with Amy's Five on Friday and Tanya's Willy Nilly Friday Five.



I

In my home the electric cables were very old and after a wall was burning,
they had to be replaced now.
I have taken some time to clean out the library room and I live just still in chaos ...


II

Only someone who himself lives in a loam build home, knows, what it is for a fine dust
that goes through all the cracks and it looks like after a little sandstorm ...




III

There were seven or eight layers wallpaper cleaned off from the walls, the oldest from 1853 ...






IV

Now the renovation work is finished and i will sort all the books again.
For the first time in my life I count them, until today I've sorted in 3764 books, 
but that are still not all.








V

A song from Kazakhstan or Bashkortostan (exactly I can not distinguish the languages).
I very like this simple clear melody and the voice of Sulfira Farchutdinova-Bakira.




 Have a wonderful weekend all

  6. I dread having to rewire my home. I know the electricals are rather old and I suspect it might need it, but I'm avoiding thinking about it. I hope all gets sorted out quickly for you.

  9. That sounds a big job, you probably didn't realise how many books you had until you had to move them. Enjoy your new library. :-)

  13. I love books and have decided it is time to declutter and downsize which means I must part with most of my books. Very hard to do. Hope you have time now to enjoy the new wiring, your home and your books. Love the wallpaper history you found. Have a relaxing week.

  16. Hooray! Finally, someone who has more books than I do. (Unless you count the 1,000+ on my Kindle)

  18. Wallpaper more than 150 years old that's amazing. Hard living through a renovation. What a tremendous number of books. I give most of mine away after I read them and keep only a treasured few.

  19. Such an old house. You've done a great job of renovating. I enjoyed the song!

  20. Your wallpaper stripping photos are interesting and they remind me of the hard work I had in one of our homes that needed to have the wallpaper taken off many walls, and caring for your many books reminds me of my husband's new/used bookstore he had for five years in upstate NY. When he sold the store we still had soooo many books :) I hope you have a happy restful weekend! xx

  21. Well it looks to me like you deserve to take the rest of the summer off to read a book, I have a feeling you might have the odd one or two lying around that need reading?!
