After having to visit a physiotherapist two weeks in a row with a stern warning to give my shoulder, back, neck, wrists and thumbs a decent rest, I had a whole week of no quilting. I even resisted the urge to put a practice sample on the frame on which to play with new, different, combinations or deviations of designs.
However,
when we bought this house in April 2022, it had 2 additional flats, to rent
out, on the same property. This made
sense to us, as we saw it as an additional monthly income. Now the bachelor flat will not be available
for the foreseeing future as we still use this to store all the ‘stuff’ we do
not have space for. The two-bedroom flat
was, with our take-over, rented by a couple and we decided to allow them to stay.
This turned
out bad but thanks to our other neighbours who laid a complaint of theft
against the man, we kindly had to ask them to leave as the other neighbours did
not like a criminal in their midst. I
luckily had other people interested even before the commotion of the theft
started, so I told them when the flat would be ready.
This left
us exactly 10 days to finally be able to walk through the flat as owners
and prepare it for the new occupants. A surprise about the condition of the
flat……………. That is putting it softly, it was a hot mess.
I felt so
sorry for poor hubby, as he meant to fix one thing, another would fall off or
break and one task led to another doing it in 10 days were almost
impossible, but the new occupants moved in yesterday, so hopefully, his life
would be a little easier going forward.
