Today Thanyia managed to get hold of the camera and do today's video diary... always funny to watch!
So what have we been up to today?
Well all the old tiles had to come up and make way for the dance floor (coming soon). Daddy has been painting as always and I started the tiles in the bathroom... there are so many to put up!

Well well well... Today was the start of the dry boarding on the partition and you can really start to see how the reception and the dance studio separate.

He he.... The day was cut short by our company rehearsals... well...
Earlier in the day I had brought my TV over with all the extras including my Wii, so rehearsals turned into a Mario Kart session.

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 21
Hey hey hey...
Working my arse off as always, been tidying and painting more.
Now: the office was crap, so I tried moving it all around and my old desk decided to fall apart... Boooo! So early this morning I ventured to Ikea and got some more furniture (you'll see in the video)...

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 20
We've been working non stop and I feel like we've done loads...
Finally getting rid of that ugly ceiling, the plaster board has started to go up in the lobby for now... more to follow!
My lovely father has been painting like mad throughout the building... It's mad how a bit of paint can make such a huge difference!
The most exciting bit is that the partition frame is up and ready to be boarded. Donato, my multi-talented friend has built a frame for the doors into the studio. It's strange because you can walk through the partition but the doorway is closed! He he.
I feel like I'm in full throttle mode now, so hopefully you'll be seeing loads of progress every day...

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 19
So.... all the lights are up, so I'm happy! The wood showed up for the partition so I cracked on with that and made a good start. Got most of the support beams up with the help of Leon (to get the top ones up) but now I'm retiring for the day to have a much needed sleep!
I know I keep saying it but I'm getting so exhausted. Alter Ego Dance

Still doing the lights... very annoyed... a certain merchant gave me the wrong cable and so I had to rip it all down and start again with new cable... Pissed! But did they take the old cable back? NOPE.
Had some of the youth crew come and help again as well as the family!... They cracked on with the painting and general tidying up.

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 15
The video is later in the day... Basically today I've been boarding up windows all throughout the hall to stop people seeing in and of course save some money on the heating bills! Hehe!
Today was the first day that I actually started to feel like this is really happening... and I'm not gonna lie I'm scared... in two years time I'll either be bankrupted or a millionaire... Fingers crossed for the latter!

Day 13... well it wasn't unlucky for me... I finally have an office to work in!
The furniture is in and and the computer is up and running! This saves me rushing to get home to edit and upload these videos as I can do it from here! Yay!
The plan today was to get started on boarding up those windows... and you can see how it went tomorrow!

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 12
So today is a Sunday and yes, I'm working! Too Keen! Carrying on the painting in the more difficult areas as you'll see on the video. As well as this I have decided I want to get my office finished so I can have my computer at the studio (saving driving time!).
Managed to make it to B&Q to buy what I need to cover up the windows, although still debating if its a good or a bad idea? Opinions?
As always Ben makes an appearance on the video... He found an affiliation with the plaster board and just wouldn't move...
Natasha (member of my Adult Crew) decides to pop in and HELP but decides she wants to play narrator instead... Hmmm... watch her coverage!

Alter Ego Dance Studio Renovation Day 11
It's a Sunday and it's cold! But... I was lucky enough to have my youth crew come and help me paint the hall.
Although I'm pretty sure they didn't do much! I started to notice after a while that you would tell them where to paint, they get bored, wander off, then go back and paint the same spot AGAIN!
