God - don't get me started on my house We moved in when I was pg with ds2 and it was a tip! Everything needed gutting. My dh is good at diy but he is a perfectionist and very slow added to that he doesn't have a lot of spare time to do diy and won't trust meSo far he has fitted a new kitchen - this took 3 years lol - included tiling and fitting new floor but tomorrow when I go to buy a new blind it will be finished.

After the length of time he took on the kitchen we got people in to fit the bathroom - of course he still thinks he could have done a better job!

All the rooms are done - living/dining room needs doing again as does hall but the priority is the utility room as it is just used as a dumping ground and is a waste of an extra room even if I just use it to store the kids's toys!

whymummy · 11/03/2005 22:03

cc we did our kitchen and got new windows last year after living here for 4 years,the bathroom needs doing and the garden is a jungle

charliecat · 11/03/2005 22:05

3 years jeesus...thats a lifetime. OMG thats mad!!!!
This house was a mess when we moved in and we splattered brightly coloured paints onto it to cover it up. (Mess!) Had just started to do it again, done bathroom and kitchen and now we are moving...but theres NO WAY I want to slap the paint on and regret it.
Did you see my link???

Do the kids not trample on the jungle to make it flatter I always found sending the dds out for half an hour kept the lawnmower in the cupboard for an extra couple of weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, cc anf wm-you love a chat,eh?I just got in from work when you 2 went to bed-I have to have a glass of red to wind down when I get in. Had the best nights sleep Ive had for yonks-must be all the chemicals Ive eliminated from my system.
Golly gosh,you girls have done well,(read your times minus fags)xxxxxxxWELL DONExxxxxx
I am starting my fourth day today-Had an awful urge on my (old fag) break last night-have to stay clear of the smoking room even though my old muckers reside in there. V hard.
Sorry, to be disgusting but now all the old grime is coming out of me-nose and mouth.I most definetly feel better though and a 'orrible cough I had since crimbo has almost gone.
Whymummy-one of my friends is moving to Spain with a fourmonth old baby-do you have any tips for her??
Good morning,Prettyfly1-are you still off the wagon???

whymummy · 12/03/2005 09:15

good morning
dropinthe you are doing so well,i also slept much,much better the days after giving up,is like i was in a much deeper sleep be prepared to feel awful for at least a month though,i did,my face was full of spots i had no energy and i was terribly constipated i even got dundruff!!but i now feel absolutely great and i can imagine myself ever poisoning myself like that again,i also feel like i can do anything!!
about your friend,tell her to come on mumsnet there's a few english mums living in spain and i'm sure they'll love to give her advice or you can CAT me and then give her my email and i can give her information,tips,etc

charliecat · 12/03/2005 20:15

dropinthe · 13/03/2005 08:02

Good morming,all. Whymummy I look like that now hence another reason for giving up-especially the spots although just stopped having the Deprovera contraception jab as side effect is spots too.
Now,on fifth day(and am finding all your words of encouragement really great-thank you.
Yesterday,went to two different houses where relatives were smoking and yes it was hard but had a lozenge every time wanted a fag and got through it ok-I think I'm over that 72 hour thang
all the quitting people mention(well I should be shouldnt I as its been 96 hours!!) and 40 fags better off.
