  • With a bit of luck, no!
  • So half term is here!

    I vowed yesterday that I would do nothing today. So far I have kept my promise, except for cooking a vast brunch for the family. Planning to do some sitting by the fire and drinking coffee.
  • Sounds delightful! How much are you planning to decorate?
  • Inside the newly formed bathroom. The outside walls of the bathroom, and what I am grandly calling the breakfast room but is actually where previous owner kept her dogs!
  • Went on a shopping trip yesterday Got some paint, a tray of cutlery (£5) a kettle (£5) a toaster (£5) an electric "woodburner" (£50) and various rollers/sugar soap.

    Today's jobs in the letting room;

    Strip and wash sofa covers
    Clean windows and blinds
    Delegate DH to hoover EVERYTHING and wash walls
    Take DD out with the Plops who is so nappy at the moment we should rename her Pampers.

    Have a great week off shs, make sure you continue to allow for some rest time for yourself :naughty:
    MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁
  • Sounds like a busy half term. Do you already have a tenant for the letting room?
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Thanks NG. Did that on Saturday.

    Not yet Squirrel. Planning on air bnb.

    Windows and blessed blinds cleaned. French doors need fixing.

    Next up, get the Plops out.
