Morning All
Lots to do today as I've got a cash buying company coming to look at the house at 2.30. Don't think he'll offer enough to make it worthwhile but it will give us a starting point. However I've also got to ring the dentist to tell them I need a root canal and see when they can fit me in - hopefully not today!
I'm planning to start with a HHC @ 7.30 if anyone would like to join me!
Have a good day all
Hugs

Good morning all :wave:
In the end I shifted nearly a ton of soil yesterday (putting new topsoil on the front garden once I'd cleared it of weeds and stones) and then walked for nearly 2 hours delivering leaflets along a very hilly road where there are steps up or down to almost every front door. If I don't show a loss on the SW scales later this morning, I shall be :mad:
Meanwhile DH rubbed down and glossed the bed ends for about the 4th time :eek: then finally got round to starting to paint the side porch :A.
Decluttered a shelf unit vie FreeCycle yesterday evening, and someone is coming for cupboard doors at lunchtime. CS reopens today, and it's bin day tomorrow. Might be tidy by Thursday
Before we go out this morning, we need to move furniture and the mattress in the downstairs bedroom, so that we can put a coat of lighter emulsion on the walls this afternoon (couldn't stand the shade of blue that we used previously). Hopefully we shall be able to do this job together: I'm better at cutting in round the edges with a brush but can't use the roller because of limited up-and-down mobility in my shoulder, whilst DH prefers rollering because he gets quick results :rotfl: Fortunately it's raining now, so the garden will not be such a distraction today.
Hope everyone has another productive day. (((Hugs))) and spoons to all who need them; sticks thrown for BDs - especially those that (unsurprisingly, given recent events) appear to have moved in with your husbands, lynnejk and charlieyates.0 -

Ionafan - I feel the same as you about the rain, I won't be temppted by the garden (well maybe later if it dries up) - you remind me of the rural french gardening in the early morning.
JTTOU - Im the same about the sun, feel so much more motivated but I think having been outside most of yesterday I've recharged my solar battery a little.
Ironing done, DH and DS1 away to work, DS3 having breakfast, DS2 struggling to get up so I have taken up a cuppa and shall go and poke him now on my way to the shower.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
