On the move.....again.

We're on the move but luckily this time, we're only moving house and not  continents.

The girls are off school .....again. This is making the task of sorting through their rooms a little of a nightmare. They don't want to toss one single thing. I have 2 little hoarders on my hands.
Every little paper or piece of plastic I touch I hear 'we need that' or 'this belongs to something'.

So their rooms I'll leave until they are back to school because what little eyes don't see... little heads, hearts and hands won't want or in their case 'need'. I must just remember to empty the bin before they get home because as always they'll see it, yank it out and won't let it out of their sight.

I attacked the cleaning of their doors and beds. I knew the day would come.

Stickers everywhere.
I  know that the 10 minutes of peace I had when I gave them the stickers that they used to "decorate their beds", was so not worth the 1 hour of scrubbing along with chipped thumb and index finger nails.
Damn those stickers.
Rule number 1 for the new place - NO STICKERS!!!

Don't even get me started on their walls which were full of those little stars and moon thingys that glow in the dark.
Well I've just removed them from the walls but unfortunately with them came chunks of plaster. Typical. So it was off the Aberdeen to buy some polly filler and I'll have to get to work because no way can I hand this place over with the walls in such a state.
Rule number 2 for the new place - NO STICKING THINGS ON WALL.

So its Hong Kong for the length of another project. I have no complaints.
Better than returning to France.... for the time being that is.
