I really hope ID can help speed things up. How I wish it is already over..... Still got my boss at work chasing after my deadline.... I stay up late to try to complete my office work.... Perhaps, I m quite a workaholic and use to stay up late at nite.

I totally get what you mean. Also can't wait for reno to be over so I can feel less distracted at work. Been really busy at work too and feel bad that I have to leave early when my colleagues are still slogging.

oh ya understand..if we had not extended our reno progress, we would face the same problem too. i tend to be distracted too at work. ask him to speed things up. no choice.

ya no sleeep no energy to work also. no choice then. drink some redbull or what to help you through.

after reno, it will be more relaxing for you!

Hi, I m still new to this forum. I enjoy reading the blogs of many. I am encouraged by many of u who are willing to share your experience and photos of what u have gone through.

I recently bought an EM unit in Serangoon North..... And paid a rather high COV for a 26 yr old, in very original state.

I have also gone for my 1st Appt on 10 May and I was told that 2nd appt is 8 wks later.

Look forward to sharing more with u....

Bathroom shower screen install

It looks really cool your place! So spacious!!!

I suppose its unavoidable that laminate pranks must have borders at the edges..

In a way, the borders does play a part in anti-slip.
