Hiya! Not really break neck, just steady, honest - I think the ebay last weekend made my Inner Rebel put her foot down earlier this weekMorning KC, you sound to be moving at break-neck speed this morning. I'm worn out just reading!!!
Good to hear you sounding so full of life again - enjoy your cuppa :beer: and have a nice day

Thanks Taxi! Yes, as macgirl said too, full of life again - and I think you're right, I think the steroid injections have a lot to do with it - I'm not waking up during the night, or in the morning, with any pain at all. Makes a *huge* difference. I'm still wary of using this shoulder thats been causing all the problems, but I have to fairly often, but so it goes ...sounds like that injection really worked for you ...you seem much brighter and more active and very busy
Which means I'm doing the DIY but I'm taking it easy
sweeping floors, vacuuming, tidying, and carting little tables around are also involved, as is taking my coffee out into the sunshine :T 2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
sounds good ...plenty of jobs get done with a little rest inbetween..that's how I'm doing it0

Just dropping in quickly to say we finally got the call this afternoon and its a :T:T:T:T:T:T:T to the contracts.
After 7 weeks of nail biting it feels a bit surreal
. Maybe the bump in the stock market was they heard wispers about our work :cool:. One small step for ME, one giant leap for my family!

It's all looking good in your world at the moment, so if you can start to get some trading done, all the better.

Thanks DT!
Just crossposted with gill .... yes, this house is in a *far* better state than the last, I think thats whats been so liberating - things I can do here make a real difference, I'm not just faffing around on the edges with things that will have to be destroyed anyway when a huge great renovation happens. Stuff I do here is the final stage - apart from this work on the bed :rotfl: I can't quite see that being permanent - but thats okay, actually, it uses materials I've got to achieve a semi-permanent solution, stores things more neatly and more compactly, and gives me resources I didn't have, that can be re-used in *other* ways when I'm done....
I know that sounds weird... all I'm doing is making a bed support for a single bed from the slats of a double bedframe ...2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
Morning KC, I can soooo relate to having a house that feels liberating. I only realised how stressed I'd been at the other house, when we moved here.
It was constant frustration at not being able to find a home for things or organise the chaos - as the house was just too small. Now I have loads of storage space, so I can just ram everything away and not see it! :rotfl:
The right house really does add to your life
Have a good day x 0
