I have clean windows and clear guttering! Hurrah! It is such an improvement. They cleaned all the fascia as well, it looks so bright and new now!
It does highlight that I need to clean the inside of some windows now though 😏
It's always a good feeling when we've done something positive to the house.
DH is talking about selling one of his cars in October. Fingers crossed! It's not been on the road since around 2015 and it's just taking up space on the drive and rotting. If he gets rid of it, we'd be able to use the back gate, and I'd have access to the garage, the gas meter and the outside tap!
Busy day at work otherwise with an afternoon of meetings. I've managed to achieve some things though so that's good.
3 items posted for DH earlier and I've sold an item. DH has another sold, but they haven't paid yet."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee1 -
