There are so many things I want to and need to do it's hard to know where to start. As I've said before I am a great procrastinator or as my mum called me a "gonna" gonna do this and gonna do that but actually end up not doing anything. As a child my school reports use to say I'm easily distracted, even the nurses in hospital when I was born told my mum that if they were feeding me and someone came in the room I moved my head round to see what was going on. (I was ill when I was born and my parents had to leave me in hospital and visit me daily but the nurses obviously fed me when my mum wasn't there).
I have all next week off work and hope that I can achieve some of the things I need to. We have a few maintenance issues with our home that need sorting and I want to give the place a good clean and sort out. I hope to make a start on our spare room as it needs new floor boards. It has been used as a dumping ground and I want to be able to use it more as an office/snug. I want to decorate it with an Indian theme in mind with orange and purple walls but my husband isn't so keen so we shall see... ;)
When we bought our house the furniture was given to us to go with the few bits we had as we couldn't afford new or even second hand. Now we have been able to put some money aside to replace items of furniture, some of which are well past it and as we haven't had to think of what we would like in terms of style we are struggling, there is so much choice out there. We are starting with upstairs first, hence doing the spare room. Our room has blue walls which we are sticking with just going to re-decorate to brighten it up and are going to buy white wardrobes. We have ordered a new bed as after 20 plus years the old one has finally given up and so has our backs!
