Kezlou, we did it to sell the old place - I have the estate agent photos to prove it was clean once. The funniest bit is that this house is twice the size and the junk just expanded to fill it.

Our bedroom is now finished, and I am down to the last three loads of washing. Looks, feels and sells much better up there. I do have one big box of paperwork to sort through but have at least split it down into bin/keep which is an advance. I will be breaking out some new candles tonight I think :wave:Natty my fellow yankee candle fan

How did you get on juliejim?

I have worked so hard that OH has made me a cup of tea! *faints*

Just thought i'd pop my head round the corner. Been very stressful here but i think things are on the up. DD has left school and due to start her new one in September, she is super excited (plus there will be lots of children with hearing impairment so i think it will show her she isn't the only one). So her summer holidays have started early.:j:j:j:j

So been a stressful week, meetings at school, lots of phone calls but we finished it with a weekend to the beach.

Home left super tidy so nothing needed done when we got back today except a few loads of washing. Busy this week with more form filling and we're going to see the new school on thursday. She will have to go to her old school to do a test but it's only an hour and she can do it in the staffroom.

Plan is to keep up with flying and a few extra jobs but i'll be lurking mostly. Hope everyone is well xxx
