I don't go out to work. I have a very part-time job writing questions for TV quiz shows and I have a very small crafts hobby/business with my sister. My main source of income is that when I buy a new home I make sure it's solid but in need of modernisation and I'm the one that does most of it while my dh is out at work.
I do carpentry, tiling, decorating, garden remodelling, make curtains and other soft furnishings etc etc.
Are there any other mums who slot this kind of work in around their kids? If so it would be great if we could get together and pool our knowledge on mumsnet. I couldn't find a topic that exactly fitted this so would be interested to know if there's enough people here to ask for a new topic.
Please post what kind of DIY jobs you do and what projects you're working on at the moment.
I'm just about to go out in the garden and plant up around a waterfall I built last week. I plan to come in every few minutes to cool down!!
