I don't know whats gotten into me this year.
I'm on a mission to sort out my house, to reclaim it as my home. Am I having some kind of mid-life crisis? - (If I'm half way, then I'm in for a fairly good innings!)
Getting the patio done last summer was the start of a long list of fairly major things that needed doing. Seemingly, with each job needing something else to have been done, before it could realistically & practically be started.
Over the last few months I've saved every penny I could, to get to a point where I could get a job done, save up, get another job done etc. I've found a great, if slightly eccentric, builder/handyman who understands what I want doing and how it may well be a few days work every couple of months, rather than one huge hit all in one go. I pay cash each time, and so far I'm very happy with the way its going.
I think I'm finally beginning to see some small reward as all the little bits n bobs contribute to the bigger picture!
In the last few weeks I've become a regular visitor to the local tip/recycling centre. I'm getting fairly ruthless, and it's becoming almost obsessive... Anyone seen the 'meses?
