Doing It Myself

In a continued effort to get our house ready for sale, we've decided that the time has come to pick up the hammer and paintbrush again, and sort out the dining room, stairs and upstairs hallway.

To make this as quick and painless as possible, I've packed Lisa and Francis off to South Shields, and the cats are on holiday at my brothers house in Salford. I've got one week off work, and a quiet house in which to work my magic.

Given that my previous average time for decorating a room was more like 6 months, 1 week is quite ambitious, but I think I can get most of the dirty noisy stuff done this week, just leaving the painting and decorating for when Lisa comes back next weekend.

I'll be posting up some work-in-progress pictures as I go along, mostly just so that Lisa can see them, and make sure I'm not just destroying the house in her absense.
