>> That doesn't help when the job is all DIY,
I know what you mean SS.. most of this was too.
Obviously there is stuff I cant do on the room, and not being any good with hammer and nails, then a professional was called for for the joinery.
Not being well has hampered stuff a lot, and Im still finding I just dont have the energy/enthusiasm that I did last year. I seem to tire much quicker and dont think Im back to full strength yet, as everything seems to take soooooooooo much longer :/
Take the garden for eg.. normally Ive got things all ship shape by now.. but this year its taking me so much longer to do anything in it.. and stuff I once upon a time would have got done in a couple of days seems to be dragging on for about a week.
Although saying that my neighbour has nagged me more than once at what she has seen me doing.. and told me to take it a bit easier.
