It's been almost a month since my last post and the house is still not finished.
It's nearly there, though. Mr C spends a great deal of his "spare time" fixing things and sorting out little bits.
The garden has been improved dramatically. We did a massive chop and clear out a few weeks back and it looks far more open and bright now. The grass doesn't grow though, which is odd. I'm not complaining mind you, no growth no mowing.
I planted a few store bought herbs in the flower beds - Lavender, Rosemary, Parsley, Basil and Mint.
I am not a gardener so we will see if they die or not...
The pets are adjusting as well as could be expected considering they don't get along.
The lounge is now kind of done.
The downstairs wall still needs to sanded and painted white, and hopefully the handy man guy will come collect the broken dishwasher today - So that's more than 2 months without a dishwasher - first-world problems, I know.
It's slowly coming together, even though I still keep finding new and interesting ways this house has not been looked after or cleaned. I don't think I will ever mange to get this house 100% as clean as I want.
The next house I move into will have to be sparkling and spotless. I kid you not. or there will be hell to pay.
