I have always known my limitations, I could shift furniture around, emulsion a room, no problem, but health issues have limited my ability to do many DIY jobs
I was always more practical than DH but I do miss having him around to do the jobs I can't (I've been a widow for 7 years). I now rely on DD & DiL to help me. DiL has DH's drill & some of his tools
At the moment I'm decorating my bedroom, my problem is lack of space to move furniture around & store all the bits & pieces that normally occupy my bedroom.
My dressing table has been in my Lounge since last November when we discovered a leaking roof. New roof & repair to damaged corner in bedroom completed on the very day "lockdown" was announced. Most of the painting is now complete except the wall behind my bed can't move it without help, pine bed, no castors
I'm now going to start on my Lounge, again this involves lots of furniture moving.
I painted my Hallway before Christmas, needs a new light fitting & that will be completed, I need a Handyman who is competent at Electrics
Due to problems with my hands I can't do lots of little jobs, I just do what I can & if it takes me days/weeks/months at least it's down to me
