I like to decorate as soon as I can. Hate living somewhere unfinished and not my style. Lucy knows the style she wants she's just too lazy to do so or is waiting for the freebies.
Nobody wants to watch someone decorating their house for 2 years?
If people can do it in a decent time frame with limited funds she sure as heck can do it with her funds.
I've also like to have everything done but it's very normal to not do it all at once, I've been in my house 2 years and only just started painting. I had very specific ideas but i'd have ended up making bad decisions back then because I've settled in my house more, I now know my ideas wouldn't have worked.
I think Lucy waiting is actually really mature and she did say at the beginning of her move not to expect results so quickly. I think she's doing well.
She needs to get rid of that fridge though, it's ridiculous in the living room.
