Sick of being tired.

Maybe I have done to much recently, trying to get the house sorted & decorated, but its a struggle. I have started to sleep more again, getting fed up of losing every morning. Today was about 1 before I woke ( woke once earlier, had a bagel & a coffee, nipped on laptop, then back fast asleep). I was feeling ready for bed about 8.30 tonight, bt unloaded & loaded the dishwasher, did the kitchen plughole with degreaser powder, vinegar & boiling water as water was very slow at going down. Was going to catch up on eastenders, but Dan had this lappy, took a while for him to give to me, then spent time just winding me up ( My light on/ off, punching holes into a drinks can... ) Yet aagin after promises agin yesterday he has refused to do the rest of the painting for me, I can't do the top, no way can I go up ladders. I want to get the new curtains & pole up. I already have the lightweight panels up & its starting to look nice, I just want it finished. I am happy to do the rest of the woodwork later. Did some yesterday, but was tiring. Him & his younger brother did go into town to collect the curtains I had ordered yesterday & get another duvet cover for my bed. ( I needed a spare, but when bought mine & curtains they only had 1 in stock), so thats something. I waited in the car. But I was driving round for him to bike shops as he wanted another part. & who would of paid for the cable... Me yet again. I am his walking cash machine.

Have been decorating.

I have started decorating hallway stairs & landing. Woke early on 7th & did some filling of holes about 2am. Friday I was very tired, felt rough & spent most of the day in bed, But nipped out & bought some paint for the woodwork, had bought the wall paint last monday. Sat afternoon I made a start, did more yesterday, Not sure how I am managing to, It must be with God's help. I have got 2 coats on most of the walls, will need help with the top edge as no way can I get up ladders. I am hoping all the walls will get finished today. I have made a start on the woodwork as well. The walls are Pecan, The woodwork is Kings gold mettalic paint, Opulence by Craig & Rose.
I know some will say I should finish decluttering the house before decorating, but it makes me feel better, so if I feel better about it will give me more happiness to do more. It will also look nice when I open the door, 1st impressions & all that. Yes the carpet needs doing, but I can wait for that.

Been Busy.

Been busy this week, but feel disappointed in what I have achieved.
Monday, bought new paint for Ds2's room & new rug for his room. Took a couple of trips for the paint as he refused to come with me, so had to get a sample card, then show him & return for the paint. He insisted he doesn't want his room painting, but it needs it. will look better once its done, its part of how he is that he doesn't like change much. Bought youngest a new mattress. did a few other bits to, was very tired at the end of the day ( & part way through to). In the eve discovered Matttress was the wrong size. .
Tuesday, Tough morning, was woke before 6 by shouting/ swearing at me & pillow & soething els thrown at me. All because ds2 couldn'r get on the laptop as I had locked it for him between 12 & 6am every night. Returned the mattress, other one ordered. Tuesday eve, went church. couldn't sleep, so ended up filling some holes/ dents in the hallway stairs & landing walls turned 1am weds.
Wednesday, Slept in, DS2 home at dinner time from college. spent the afternoon helping him fix his moped. Collected ds3's now mattress
Thurs, ( today), slept in. Support worker was due to come, but she had a car problem, so couldn't. DS1 came round after lunch, I tried to help him sort some stuff out as he had lost a lot of money due to a buyer not paying him on ebay, inc a couple of phone calls & a trip to the police station. I had cooked tea in the slow cooker. out tonight with some ladies from church to see Fame at the pictures. I had asked the lads to do a few things while I was gone. I was upset to see the house looked worse than when I had gone out & couldn't see what they had done.

Middle ds's room & the bathroom

I posted before about doing my my middle Ds's room. Here is it with all new bedding & his own Pc.Also a Pic of the clean bathroom. I know they need decorating, but at least now they are clean & tidy, decorating will come later. I hadn't taken any before pics.

More done.

The kitchen is nearly finished now. Have moved the stuff from the bottom of the stairs & youngest brought down the shoe cabinet so that's back in its place, I hoovered it al down to, It is even now in use.I even managed to hoover the stairs, 1 step at a time, I used a dyson stubborn dirt attachment brush. I have moved some more stuff from the landing, so that's nearly done now. Middle Ds's room is still today, as is the bathroom. For the 1st time my youngest has been able to have a friend over to sleep, its so nice for him to be able to.His mate helped him mend his bed & tidy his room last night, Luckily his room wasn't that bad, hadn't been that long till it had been done.

Clutter be gone!!

The clutter from the house was collected the other day, here is some of it on the way to the tip. Garden cleared as well ( apart from some metal stuff). There was more than 1 load, they had to come back for more stuff.
