Owned a House for a Week

Well a week ago today I picked up the Keys for our house.  I thought we would spend a few days sorting things out and getting moved in a little bit, but oh no, not Carly.  Carly has had us decorating every room in the house in the past week.  The kitchen, living room, Hall stairs and landing and now a bedroom is all done and decorated.  I am glad to come back to work for a rest.  We now only have 2 bedrooms to do and a bit of tinkering in the bathroom (replace fittings to the bath, sink and toilet), then our bedroom and the office (3^rd bedroom/box room).   

The week started off by realising that all the carpets stank of dog piss.  Upon pulling the carpet up, there were massive stains underneath.  We now have pulled up all the carpet in the living room, hall stairs and landing and the bedrooms.  Plenty of decorating done, which in the living room ended up with us hack sawing the radiator off.  We have a local plumber company coming out to fit it on Thursday, so we will then have hot water and should be able to move in to the property. The only thing left to do then will be to get the carpets down, sofas and dining table delivered.  I might actually then get down to sit and watch a bit of TV that I have recorded using my Virgin Media V+ box.
