Re: How can I get motivated?

Finished the wall tiling so will grout tomorrow. When do you think you will start the decorating?

Re: How can I get motivated?

Thanks Patsy. I will attempt to post some pics when finished just to prove I am actually doing it. Plenty of work to do yet though.

Do a deal with your wife, girlfriend, gay lover. "no sex until I finish the job!"
I guarantee this will work wonders.

So you did manage to introduce sex into 'this' thread Oxy'moron.

Re: How can I get motivated?

Thanks Patsy.

I will also start taking photos with the iPad when a few bits are out of the room.

LD, I haven't a clue when I'll start the decorating. I will spend Thursday and Friday taking the stuff to the storage unit, depending on how much I decide to take. I also have to partially empty the tall standing bit in the hallway (that belonged to a unit in the lounge and I recycled it), because I'm also having to do up the hallway ready for the new carpet. I've sort of added on extra work for myself.

In 2010 when I had the storage unit when doing the lounge, I was also taking furniture like book cases and other things, so at times had to depend on my friend getting his cousin's van. I spent so many journeys taking stuff myself in the car, but hope it won't be too much this time, now I've planned it a little better.

I only have a Micra so not a lot of room to play about with.

Yes...un-necessary, I thought.

There must be something else I haven't finished in that case.

Re: How can I get motivated?

Have taken the first car load to the storage unit, bought 2 more boxes and a tape gun (with tape), into the Tesco that is close by, and just having a quick bite to eat and a cuppa and will go back for a second run.

What a lark!
