Both the giving and the taking got a work out today on one of those rare Sunday's where I don't have to flap about like a crazy person.
The next fortnight is going to be a challenge with all new episodes of "Glee," "NCIS," "NCIS: Los Angeles," and "Four Weddings" all scheduled to air over the next 12 days: and these 4 shows just happen to appear on my 'must-watch" list. Mock me - I dare you
Yes I know that with the marvels of modern technology I can watch them online later, but it isn't the same as bunkering down in the living room with hubby watching them together...ok, so maybe it's more that I'm a little concerned he'll throw spoliers about left, right and centre.
But, this makes me even more determined to see my first mission through to the end as now it really is a challenge.
Also whilst pondering the TV matter I realised that after all the feng shui-ing I've been doing there's one room I've forgotten about: the bathroom. I've done the oven, why not the loo too?
The first thing everyone simply must know about bathroom feng shui is that having the throne room in the middle of the house is "totally unacceptable" and that health problems can ensue if you can often smell or see the toilet.
How often do you think is 'often'? Because I'm pretty sure I don't want to be in a 20km radius when hubby is losing the facilities some mornings.
This particular snippet of feng shui gold continues by saying that if the first room you enter a house through is the bathroom, the people living there will be plagues by health and financial problems: not to mention that they clearly lack taste and design skills.
Seriously, who makes the bathroom one of the entry points to their house??
Thankfully this is one area my matchbox hasn't let down in after failing the feng shui requirements for a kitchen, losing weight and not to mention having a bad front door. My bathroom is at the back of the house, adjacent to the laundry and living area..oh F$%#!
Further reading reveals that bathrooms need to be kept well away from the dining and living room (which isn't going to happen) and you also need to hide the toilet from the bath area so in an open plan bathroom like we've got, a screen would need to be used. Given our current desire to save $$ so that we can upgrade to a shoebox, below is my solution using items currently at my disposal:
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the only thing worse than bad bathroom feng shui is having pictures of your nearest and dearest stare at you while you go about your business.....
Oh dear! You seem to be having for more issues than me in the Feng Shui stakes... my house practically came pre feng shuied! The door faces in the right direction, my toilet is outside the house so no problems there, bathroom is inside and therefore well separate from the toilet... bed was already in the middle of the room and not under the window, we can see the door from the bed (not really hard given the size) and well, I forget all the rest! I think I should perhaps hang green crystals between the oven and the fridge as they are possibly too close... being an old house however it has extremely high roof and a ladder would be required. Which kinda just puts that in the too hard basket for some crappy crystal hanging! ;)
