DIY - Hint - Buy a Big Drill

My DIY experience continues - I borrowed Chudders hammer drill to put curtains up above our patio doors and found that it just wasn't up to the job - it broke - sorry chudders.

So I went out and bought a big boy for the job:

First hole - took about 3 hours

Second hole - took 30 seconds

Therefore - my DIY tip - buy big and don't waste an evening getting nowhere.

Of the original list we have so far:

Painted front and back doors (both sides)
Put curtains up in 3rd bedroom and dining room
Mowed lawn (don't think that was on list)

This weekend - putting blind in the kitchen. Should be fun as long as we don't have to cut it!
