I ran out of fence one coat and am using an inferior paint on the outside of my garden entrance it is a bit funny looking and my back is a bit sore. I am only doing it as i have put it off soooo many times!!! After this i am not doing anything not even vacuuming the house.Aiming for a minimal spend 20223

It's done for this year, all will weather over winter and you won't notice in spring 😉
Perhaps a soak in the tub or a long shower to ease your back a little. Definitely have your feet up and some yummy food.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.2 -
Hey Swan
