Decorating

We got a new carpet downstairs, so we had to decorate first. It took nearly five days to take everything upstairs and paint. Then there was one day back at work. Oh no - those two walls need another coat, and the carpet fitter's coming tomorrow, so there goes another evening. Elliot the carpet fitter was a nice bloke. The carpet is laid, and there's a big empty clean-looking space. Nothing in there but a sofa that's to big to remove.

Maybe some of the things we took upstairs can be got rid of instead of taking them back down? And now the rest of the house is looking tatty. We've started, so we'll have to finish. Gradually.
