A veritable flurry of Micro-jobbing!!
After Micro-job-long-time #10, it was time for a flurry of micro-jobs: could I fill and paint one lodger’s room and paint a kitchen in 2 days? A meaty 4 micro-jobs packed into one weekend?
Of course! Now how to prepare? A charity walk for work on Friday was followed shortly by a free meal and bar and as Saturday dawned, so did a chorus of angry monkeys in my head. Fortunately, I had prior arranged to run 12k with my friend Steve at 8am.
One slightly knackering run later, 1 chicken sandwich and several fizzy pops later, Micro-job man was sharp and back in the game. I started with the kitchen, some sanding and prep work before moving to fill and prep the lodger’s room. As evening came, the first coat went on the kitchen and then it was time for some much needed sleep. 9am Sunday saw the first coat in the lodger’s room, then back to the kitchen, final coat in the lodgers room and then tidying all round..
After 19hrs of DIY, I was too knackered to take any photos…. and went and had a brew before settling into my sofa with a beer…
Still such hustling has meant, I’VE BROKEN THE £2K MARK!!! Yes, only £1953.81 to go!!
