I am so relieved that this week is almost over. After spending last week in Dorset, we came home for two days before being overwhelmed by the dust and mess of having our first floor bathroom renovated and the house being re-wired. So off to Leamington Spa we drove on Sunday afternoon. Husband had to get back to work so he took the train back to London on Sunday evening. He only drove with us as I hadn’t driven for that long before with both kids. Dubz, at 23-months old, is quite a handful in the car. I drove home Thursday afternoon, alone with the kids, and miraculously survived the 2 1/2 hour drive without shouting. That is indeed a miracle.
Anyway, we have been living out of suitcases for two weeks now and I can finally start to unpack. Today will hopefully be the last day of the building works. Am dying to scrub and polish and vacuum the hell out of the house. This is an unusual feeling for me as I am not much of a ‘cleaner’. But I feel like there is a correlation between a clean house and my happiness. Which again is not usual for me.
As the week draws to a close, I am looking forward to the end of the chaotic and a return to normalcy.

Looks like my house but with no buildings word as an excuse. Bet its is worth it #WoW x
Oh we are having our bathroom ripped out and redone on 28th April and I’m dreading that week of chaos! I’m totally with you on the correlation between the state of your house and the level of your happiness though! Hope it starts getting better for you this week! #wotw
Hehe thats a normal mess in my hallway and weirdly enough nothing is being fixed here =P #WOTW
Sounds so frustrating, but it’ll all be worth it – keep telling yourself that over and over! happy cleaning! Thanks for sharing with #WotW x
Hope you’re back to normal soon!! It does sound very chaotic x
haha that makes me feel better. 🙂
It will be worth it, it will, it will. (trying to stay positive). 🙂
Good luck with yours! They still haven’t finished. Hopefully Tuesday will be the last day. Ugh.
They will not finish on tuesday, so am trying to stay positive. Have done some tidying/cleaning to get me through the long weekend!
Thanks, hope so too! 🙂
This looks familiar! Good luck with yours as I need luck with mine, lol! #WotW
As the saying goes – you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs! I’m sure the chaos will be worth it but I hope it returns to normal for you soon 🙂 #WotW
