Well that's my sister's Christmas present well and truly sorted

My brother and I have spent the best part of the 3 weeks since sister and I got back from the Big Family Wedding, doing round trips to my sister's to de-clutter her bedroom and her loft (lots of visits to the tip), rip up her bedroom carpet and paint her bedroom walls. We've also been frantically searching for new furniture for her - both online

Wow, what a project! But it does sound like it was the time to do it, despite the season. You deserve lots of you-time and cookies. (And btw I sympathize with trying to help a relative with hoarding/clutter problems.)

Enjoy your evening! I still have a fantasy of managing ONE drabble this year, and of course I want it to be my Solstice drabble. We'll see.

It really was *nods a lot*.

I think I've spotted that in your journal. *sympathises right back*
Vintage dressmaking patterns I have let her keep, but payslips from the 70s have GONE.

I have Radio 4 on in the background, I just have to bring the laundry in and then my evening *begins*

You amd me both, so you have maybe 12 hours *G*.

Major kudos to you, hon! A heck of a project but well worth it :-)

Thanks, it is so very totally worth it.
