It's been a saga the ceiling, they didn't overboard they took it down. Today it has been boarded and tomorrow skim. However the communication between the planners and customers is awful so I have no faith that it will happen. Redecoration needed in the lounge , the decorator has been this morning and let me know how many rolls of wallpaper I need .
Update on the family finding and the DNA test. I ordered my grandfathers death certificate and have now found my mum 1 half sister and 2 half brothers , they are between 9 to 17 years younger than her. I have made contact with the sister , she had no idea. We are speaking again next week when she has got her head round it . My mum knows nothing yet .Tomorrow I am off to the north east , my friend who passed away last May is having a memorial service on Saturday, I am doing a reading about the part of her life I knew her for . Very fitting tribute to her , she is very much missed .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.3 -

Morning SG
I hate having anything done in the house lately, but it's a necessary evil sometimes. I'm not fully aware of the back story with the DNA, but is it something you did with a specific goal in mind, or did it just start out as looking into your family tree? Hope the service goes well, I'd consider it a real honour being asked to read. x
