Melly if I wasn't all the way up the NW coast I'd gladly help.
Maybe bin bags, tip are a way to go if you can get some help and more things in the friends shed.
Does your husband seem to like the new home? He's going to have to let you clear some stuff to be able to get it . I take it's a final inspection of your flat by the HA . No good advice I'm afraid . I would risk getting rid of stuff as it's not really helping him but holding him back but you know him best .
Hope you have some time off work this week . Seems like you need it.

Very proud

Wonderful news Melly . Well done your husband and yourself . I never thought he'd be able to do it. They do say the longest journey starts with a single step so this could be the the start of freeing himself and you from all the stuff.
Get some rest love.

You can make a garden and have a restful space in a private yard . As you know you can grow many things in pots.
I've had a frustrating time with posts disappearing into the mse black hole so just popping in to say I hope the inspection goes well tomorrow. I'll be out most of the day but will catch up in the evening.

Hi Melly . I was out until an hour ago . What do you mean by not moving yet? My heart sank when you said he'd put boxes on the surfaces you needed to clean. Whatever amount of stuff he agreed to let go it was pretty inevitable he would have a meltdown as a result .
How are you yourself ? You must be totally drained mentally and physically. I remember when CMHT were coming in he wouldn't engage and stayed in bed . Is it lack of funding or him not wanting anyone involved that means you aren't getting help and a bit of respite?
Lovely Mog picture . I can't remember which one it is.I used to knw all the kids names but some had nicknames too so I've track :rotfl:
