Front looking better.

Dan has worked hard. The front garden is all cut with the lawnmower & strimmed. 1 section in the back garden is done. He did that all on Sunday. Yesterday he jetwashed all the paths, step, drive & bottom of the house. its looking so much nicer.Also the wheely bin inside 7 out. I started cleaning by the sink. Emptied the bottom of the corner cupboard & cleaned all that out, a couple of loads in the washer, Dryer & 1 in the dishwasher.
This morning 1st thing I did another wash load. Finished the sink/ drainer, emptied bin Unloaded & reloaded the dishwasher etc. Sprayed some weedkiller. This was all before 7.30 am, then went back bed for a hour or so. Did some shopping, do the kids taxi thing. I have also managed 2 more black bin bags full of rubbish from my room.

Lovely day.

Its a Lovely day outside, the birds are singing away. Dan & Bren did some tidying downstairs yesterday/ the eve before. Yesterday I made a start on my bedroom. I have filled 3 black bin bags full of rubbish. I have a long way to go, but was full of a cold & feeling rotton, Anyway every step helps. Dan made a start on the garden last night, so today we will finish that. We have reserved a new petrol lawnmower & Strimmer, so will collect that as soon as the shop opens. Will be nice to have a garden looking nice again. I just mean tidy & clean, Grass cut, & Hedges trimmed. I am not bothered about flowers etc at this moment. Just want to able to sit outside in the sun, eat out there & the lads play on the trampoline.

Ok, I slipped, but I am back.


I slipped with the house, things really got on top of me again, But I am back & gonna fight. I put a post UKS, pretty desperate for help. Had some lovely reply's on there. I posted on Tuesday, They kicked myself up the bum & made a start on the bathroom. I cleared about 5 bags of rubbish from there & did loads of washing, think the washer has now been on 11 times since then, it wasn't all from the bathroom, but I am virtually on top of all the washing now. Ok it all needs putting away, but at least its washed & the bathroom clearer.
Yesterday, had to go to town to welfare rights for something, then went to a shop ( was pushed in my wheelchair by DS2). Ds2 nipped into another shop for me. Did more washing/ dryeing, but other than that took it easy as I had done so much on tuesday. I relaxed in the evening with a few glasses of red wine & a yankee candle.
Hopefully I will get the bathroom finished today, then may put before & after pics up.
Yesterday i got a large delivery of Yankee candles, my treat for myself, 5 of the tarts are for another lady, but the rest is all mine.
