The builders are back, after a pause of more than a month. They started by installing (or whatever it’s called) a new window in the new bathroom, to replace an old one.

When we began the remodelling we inventoried the windows of this house. Between the 9 full-sized windows, we had 7 different sizes. They were also at different heights, even when on the same wall. Today the builders discovered that they had also been installed differently: some in line with the outside of the wall, some set back about 10 cm from the facade.

Now that they’ve replaced on the of the windows, at least the two windows on the same wall are of the same height and at the same height. On the other hand, the new window is of a completely different style and colour than all the others. So while in the long run it will all look better, in the short run it is actually getting worse.

Bought some nice clothes from the second-hand shop at Spånga torg. Most of their stuff is slightly too conservative for my taste, so I rarely venture inside. Now I saw a top + skirt from Desigual in the window, and once inside I also found a simple red velvet dress, nice and soft. Bought them all without trying, since I had Adrian in the sling, and only tried them on in the evening. Luckily all 3 fit me. I like buying 2nd hand clothing (and selling or giving away stuff I no longer wear) – it feels good to give things a 2nd life.

Watched part 2 of Band of Brothers with Eric in the evening.
