Yay who needs men?!

[littlekitten8]

Hehe this is a bit of a silly post but I just wanted to tell you all about it. I have so got the hang of this DIY thing I have managed over the last few weeks to decorate my lounge, build a new TV unit, build a new toybox for James's room, paint my bathroom.....and rearrange my bedroom. All on my own So why do we need men?! Us single mummies are awesome when we put our minds to it

i was dreading d i y without my oh around to do it, but at 5 months pregnant i managed to build my sons new room, build baby 2s nursery all by myself. aswell as a dining table and a crosstrainer.

the only thing im having trouble with is catching and getting rid of big spiders!

I mowed the lawn for the first time too!!

And I put air in my car tyres all by myself!!!

It is ridiculously easy!!!.. men just pretend that it's so hard so we keep them around but really they aren't worth it!!

next on the list is to put a new toilet seat on!

I quite enjoy doing DIY to be honest

I recently put together my TV unit and nest of tables, Painted the downstairs loo, hung pictures on the wall. I mow the lawn regulary (I don't enjoy this ) It's a great sense of achievement!

 

[laurajo24]

I sorted out my flat tyre today. Without panicking or crying

We should have a new sticky thread for the things we have done that we never thought we could!

Now i need to think of a catchy title...

 

[laurajo24]

I'm back again!

Tonight I have been mostly building a cabinet. I am sweaty, injured and tired but I DID IT!!! (the doors don't quite match up but never mind...)
