Kids are going to their fathers later . Teen dd is going with them . So im 💯% child free till Monday. I do feel a bit sad though because I won't see ds on his birthday. We celebrated yesterday but it just didn't feel right 😭. Ds was happy its a me thing really.

I need to put up 2 metal sheds on my own . Its going to be hell . One is going up in the front garden so I can put the kids bikes and scooters in there. The other is going in the back garden.

Today I'm going to sort the front garden out. There's weeds growing through the gaps in the patio I need that all cleared before I can build the shed.

Once they are both up I can organise things better and everything will look more tidy.

I also need to tidy my first floor. Tidy my room and the bathroom. Wash all bedding in the house. Fold clean washing and put away. Apart from bedding im actually on top of my washing 👍

Once I have done all the above my house and garden will be 100% tidy.

Didn't get it done. Its like the never ending shed ffs .

There is a long support brase and I needed something to lift it whilst I screwed it in. I used the ladder . Done both sides when realised the ladder was trapped in frame ffs so had to unscrew it again. Then then I joined a wrong bit. So had to redo that

Really wanted to get much more done than I have over the past few days. I'm a day behinde 😭

The first shed looks great OP. Get a good night's rest, well deserved!

I need to wake myself up properly then continue with shed . I must get it done today. As I won't be able to get the roof on on my own. And will need ex to help me lift it. So I have until around 4pm.

Not sure i can do much else on my own. This shed it taller and bigger so I don't think I can lift the room on by myself.

Sorry that was cryptic!
you’ve done an amazing job in putting up 1shed alone
kow Google Taskrabbit or Airtasker and two or three burly guys will turn up and sort it.
no problem at all.

Don't need all that help . Its only the roof needs putting on . It will take 2 mins. Me and dd can probably do it between us. Or I might ask ex when he drops the kids off since he will be here.
