🏡 Home & living

The first day in a new place — settling in and getting the furniture sorted.

When something breaks, leaks, or just stops working.

Getting the place ready when someone's coming to stay or visit.

Chores, clutter, and a big clear-out at the weekend.

Fiddling with the thermostat and the curtains so the place is just right.

Splitting up the jobs round the house on a Sunday.

A bit of DIY — reaching the top shelf and arguing about knocking a wall through.

Someone's at the door — letting folk in, keeping the cat from getting out.

A bit of weekend DIY with the drill and a spirit level.

Big plans to renovate and make the place feel new.

Water coming through the ceiling and the lights playing up.

Working out what goes in the recycling and what just gets binned.

Sorting through worn-out bits and bobs and having a proper clear-out.

Locking up and turning things off before bed to keep the bills down.

Dealing with something that's started smoking or caught alight in the house.
