I'm sure you remember my "40 hours in 40 days" where I made extra time and effort to clearing and working in my craft room. It wasn't that long ago so even I remember hahaha. I didn't achieve great tidiness or wonderful organisation but I'd improved the chaos and made enough workable space to inspire more crafting (and get some of the ironing done).
Well.....Hubby said the outside cameras needed replacing!
AND they all feed into the receiver in the craft room! (Because it used to be his office).
So now I can barely get in the door.
One camera already comes into our bedroom and cabled through my wardrobe into the far side of the craft room and you'd think that was easy as the wiring is all in place, but you thought wrong! He also installed an extra camera even further down the outside wall meaning new holes to be drilled in our bedroom and more cables running under carpets and more holes in my wardrobe. Then this corner of the craft room was emptied and the sofa pulled forward so the cable could run behind. This is how he's put it back!
This used to be boxes all stacked underneath the clear desk, but it all had to move for cable laying.
He said he'd put my boxes back but now my most used is tucked right under the corner and there's still all this cable where two boxes should be grrrrrr!

Cables drive me demented. They always look untidy and/or get caught on things and make it difficult to vacuum.
We nearly upgraded our tv courtesy of the friend who provided our current one. But they got burgled over the bank holiday weekend and it got taken :-(. Current one is fine though!
Correction - the tv that got taken was their new big one. They were going to upgrade the games room tv and we would have had that one, which they are now using as their main tv whilst they think through what they really want. The new big one that got stolen they now think may have been too big.
How horrid for them to get burgled. Problem with modern tv sets being so light and easy to move! Shame you missed out on your upgrade.
Current one is perfectly ok :-). Good news over here is on Monday a non dented fridge freezer arrived (4th attempt...) and it is still working!
Yaay to finally having a working freezer. Why does everything have to be a stressful struggle eh?
I often wonder that! New dishwasher installed a while back meant they caused a leak in the under sink connections joining up to the waste disposal that we have been unable to reconnect leak-free due to distortions and corrosion in the waste disposal outlet, so M has now removed waste disposal entirely and needs to put new plumbing in. However the kitchen company that installed it used so much silicon sealant putting the drain into the ceramic sink that he can't remove it. He has tried cutting the sealant away but it is still very firmly secured and so need to next try a chemical to squirt up and try dissolving the sealant. Meanwhile the sink is out of action. We are able to at least use the dishwasher as it connects slightly lower down and we can cap off the bit that would take from the sink. Sigh.
The drain outlet is specific to the waste disposal - I did ask if he could not leave in situ and reconnect new bits underneath but seemingly not.
Life might not have been worse in the "bucket-n-chuckit" days!
