Two Whole Weeks

Hi Hon,

Well, I've just been off work for two whole weeks, the first time off for five months and boy, was I ready for it.

I have continued to de-clutter and re-organise, I emptied the garage with the assistance of Jan, on probably the hottest day of my two weeks off, (my car read 38 degrees when I went to move it after the de-clutter.)  I went on to paint the living room, ceiling is white, (used the paint that goes on pink and dries white so that you can see where you're painting.) walls are the palest stone you can imagine.  Beautifully calm and just what I wanted.

I have ached more than I knew that I could while I've painted, shoulder has practically seized up, but it's the moving of heavy furniture on your own which is the toughie, combined with climbing tables, ladders and steps to complete the task.

Bee came over one day to 'help' and I assigned her to the patio, it looks amazing and she did a brilliant job, it was so overgrown before.

So my haven of calm just needs new carpet and curtains, hopefully before Christmas then I'm set for a couple of years I reckon. 

I'm quite proud of my effort with everything, especially the organising and de-cluttering.  God knows I've been trying for years, but I think I'm finally becoming the organised person I've always dreamt of being ;)
