My Bathroom Renovation - Day 1

Today, my bathroom renovations finally started with Luke from GC Exteriors and Construction  who became infamous from Channel 10's The Renovators (see my story for GC Mag).
My unit is a 40 year old unit right on the waterfront on the broadwater on the sunny Gold Coast. The entire bathroom and unit is pretty much made of concrete and the tiles were a lovely shade of brown, very retro.... attractive lol. 
Below is what was accomplished in just a few short hours... talk about fast movers!


BEFORE:
there were cupboards there, the boys were just too quick for me
wow, so much brown....
where the tiles are missing, they fell on me whilst showering - danger danger!


AFTER DAY 1:
Lee and Luke
looks more like a crack house bathroom now lol
at least now the risk of decapitation has been removed - no more falling tiles yay!
mirror mirror on the wall??
just an empty shell :(

    Do you know the most fun part in bathroom renovation? It's the part wherein you'll be removing all the items that were going to be replace, from the sink and bathtub to the tiles and mirrors. Anyway, I haven't viewed your other blog posts yet. So, how's it going by now?

    Well, it was a good decision to renovate the bathroom. Those brown tiles are outdated, and they just had to go. Hehehe. How did everything come along? I'm curious how your new bathroom looks now. :)

For years I've always been told how lucky I was to have such good skin. And for years I always blew the compliments off with a casual thank you. As I get older, I now cherish those compliments knowing how lucky I actually am.  Catching up with family, specifically the older generations I realise that it's all in the genes. My 85 year old grandfather doesn't look a day over 70, his younger sister who turned 70 this year looks barely 55 and my mum, who probably won't want me revealing her age haha is looking the best she has in years (in fact most people think she's lying when she reveals she has a 34 year old daughter!). I am blessed with the obviously magic youth genes from my mothers side but also the genes from my fathers side which carries the Native American heritage - which I believe are forever youthful. Most people think i'm in my mid-late 20's and i'm happy with that ;-) Everyone is different, so I thought I would share my daily ski...

Body Make Over Challenge - Day 1

Image
So yesterday I started my first day of my body make over with my new fantastic trainer Daniel Carruthers. Just to give you a little bit background on Daniel, he has a Bachelor of Business in Sports Management so has the "technical" qualifications and on top of that, he is a World Champion Athlete as well as a Level 1 Surf Coach, so I knew I was in totally good hands! Daniel Carruthers - my trainer and owner of Boss Training In the lead up to our start date, Daniel and I met up to discuss my needs and to have a chat about my history, my food habits, my laziness, and general health and well being. I figured if I wasn't completely honest with him about my lifestyle (including my coca cola addiction) there was no way he was going to be able to assist me in getting me to my dream body. The great thing about Daniel, was his compassion and understanding... as a female and with a pre-existing health condition, it gave me peace of mind knowing he was going to really look...

HAVE YOU HEARD?

After a crazy weekend of celebrating our friends Hen's and Bucks (needless to say the chores and shopping didn't get done) - the boy came home from a long day's work and being the good girlfriend I am (hehe) I suggested take out for dinner. But rather than doing the standard McDonalds or Hungry Jacks, we decided to order delivery from Menulog  a fabulous new take-away food and delivery website that has a huge range of local restaurants available to order from the click of a button. Step 1.  Type in your postcode (see image below) Step 2.  A list of restaurants available to order from depending on your location - both takeaway and delivery appear for you to choose from (see image below) Labrador Delivery Step 3. You choose your restaurant and order the scrumptious food! There was a decent selection to choose from, however we went with ALs Convenience Aussie & Indian Takeaway which has a mixture of cuisine which was perfect fo...
