not ours, but this explains what I've been up to for the last
3 weeks or so...At the end of October we bought an investment property, which was a decesed estate
The woman who lived there for many years had had many cats... (we know this because it's next door to DH's parents...) At one point in time she had run a catery there as well!
The backyard was rather over grown with weeds, this ended being the first task tackled, both the front and back yards are now mostly weed free.
Then we started on the house...
I put a comment on my Facebbok page which pretty much sums it up well... we have been turning a cat toilet, not visible just lots of smell, into a house fit for human habitation...
The kitchen still needs a lot of scrubbing, mainly cupboards and the oven/stove, then it needs painting after several layers of vinyl flooring had been taken up...
In one of the bedrooms there was two layers of carpet with foam underlay. Out of the bedrooms this room smelt the worst the wardrobe unit that was in the room contributed to this so it's gone too.
The bathroom had wallpaper on the walls, in some places over paint in others it had paint over it, badly applied with badly bogged holes behind and smelling like it hadn't been cleaned for the last 10-15 years... There was also 2 layers of vinyl flooring as well, over concrete which smells worse than the walls did.
Today we finished scraping the last of the wallpaper off the walls, the last of the vinyl still needs to be scraped off but after it's cleaned out it will be ready for painting.
Apart from a few trim areas, the garage that we turned into a carport and the front fence being painted, a water blasting of the outside to clean the house and it should be ready to be put up/out for rent...
Then I should be able to get back to sewing....
