There are so many jobs that need doing to our family home after 9 years of tenants, for most of them we hired professionals to sort the major work out, however the decorating and cleaning were of a poor standard. I've spent most of lockdown rectifying this.
Cleaning up the mess left behind.
Changing the screws in the door fittings so so there are actually enough for each hinge and handle.
I was supposed to be back in Dubai this month, to organise the shipping of our furniture so I've had more than enough time to not only finish the decorating but to renovate the garden, clean the sheds and get someone in to sort out plumbing, guttering and re felting the one shed.
Much to the delight of the neighbours I've had time to learn some carpentry and fix the squeaky gate.
I've fixed a flexible curtain track for the bay window and hung curtains
I have new carpets being fitted this week (delayed from the start of April)
I've now run out of things to do around the house, other than read books, blog, general gardening and just waiting for things to (very) slowly go back to normal.
