This weekend again has been a marathon of tidying and sorting. Still, it is so wonderful when it's done and the house is nice and tidy. We did spend yesterday afternoon at the garage - Tim managed to get a free inspection for his car (for enthusiasts and usually costs about £200) so we went along and looked underneath the car, chatted to the mechanics etc. It sounds dull I know, but we enjoyed ourselves!
It is tough when you work full time and are out of the house for 12 hours a day to squeeze in the cleaning and tidying. Most of the people I work with have cleaners, but 1) I can't justify the expense; 2) I'd somehow feel lazy and inadequate if I had to let someone else clean up after me; and 3) I don't think I trust anyone enough to let them loose in my house.
So after my tidying spree yesterday morning and today I thought I'd take a few pictures of some of my favourite corners of my home. Tomorrow I'll be posting about the work we are going to have done on our house this year (starting in April). It seems as though we may well be able to do all the building work if we are incredibly frugal. Anyway, more on that tomorrow! x
Just a quick reminder that I am holding another charity raffle to raise money for Alzheimer's Society and one of the prizes is this beautiful sterling silver beehive necklace (RRP £49). Tickets are £2 each and details on how to enter are here.
