My plan this coming week is...I have to decorate the dining room (haven't started that yet), got the paint and everything, just need to shift the furniture and this desktop out first. My Dad is helping me to finish the flooring in the conservatory. I don't have much time left before family and friend comes for Christmas and New Year.

It is the first time we could afford to have everything changed from the prvious owner taste and the project is just taking too long especially I am not 100%. But at least we have done the corridors (long one), landing, sitting room, toilet...next year we will still have to carry on finish everything in the house. Deep joy eh?

Usually no one wants to help me but if I scream, someone gets annoyed and he will come and help to shut me up.

Oh and I have to think of the Christmas trees as well, which I am not looking forward to getting that up at all. Too much hazzles and I don't really enjoy Christmas.

You know this is the time we all hate living in such big house. lol. Too much work and it's labouring. I am going to change all the carpets to wooden floor too. But it won't happen until next year now. The carpets are very good ones but they're getting old, so have to get everything off. The floor board is horrible though. I just wish I could pull everything up and that's it, right now.

Anyway, I will come back later when I have done something. Talk this afternoon. Or in 5 mins. lol

im lucky the landlord had redone all the floor boards only about 10 years back so all upstairs are new

the living room are oringinal ones but in great condition thats why i wanna varnish them rather than paint them

LOL well apparently according to some people on here i live in a 2 up 2 down

but those who have seen the whole of my house know thats not true

Break time.

My house is older than I am, I think it was born in 1962. We had extension built about 3 years ago, but you imagine the house is that old, we need to do a lot of repairing all the time. Now most of the things in the house are new, time to sort the decoration out. People who used to live in this house has funny taste, everything has to be floral. So when I moved in, I just painted all the wall papers because I HATE floral patterns, it feels like Mrs Bucket's house more alike. Now it's time to strip everything down and knocked those old fashion cupboards down. The sitting room was a big job and I just finished that, of course with hubby and my Dad's help. We are going to buy a bigger new TV just before Christmas, so that's something we are looking forward to.

Right time to get back to work.

I just finished painting the entrance, got to shift all those smelly shoes out. Men shoes are disgusting I am telling you now. Have started the dining room, painted one side of the wall, washed all the picture frames, I can't do anything to the room until tomorrow now because I need to clean the fish tank and move that before painting that pasrt of the wall. Gonna pain the other 3 sides with different colour.

Will do the bedroom furniture in a mo, now that will be hard work.

edit: oh if I don't come back, that means I am stuck in between cupboards and can't get out.
