We have moved in

Well we moved in on the last day of Nov, so far the dunny has blocked up twice, first found that when house was built, originaly seventeen years ago, someone must have bogged a truck on the pipe out of the septic tank and squashed it about a meter into the ground and it has been working by soaking into the big green patch in the back lawn, that was week one. week two it blocked up again this time it was a 390ml drink bottle that must have got down the pipe while the house was demolished oh joy, that is now fixed, the concreters showed up yesterday, only six or so weeks after thay where going to so the veranda's now have concrete will have photos soon, haven't been able to put many photos on as not much to look at still don't have new furniture so only got cottage furniture, soon will post photos. when the deck and front of garage have a roof and the other jobs are done. But it is SOOO nice to be HOME. :o)

 And so do we.
 Carpet in the office.
 And our room.
 The hall from the kitchen end.

Righto Something has been happening at home(not enufe but something)

 We now have a hot water system (that takes up half the veranda) but it is connected.

 The laundry is coming together, bench and overhead cupboards, not finished

 The office with a Hugh bench will be able to put some stuff on that, cant wait to be sitting there admiring the view (one day)


 En suit (not finished ) I do like our bench and tiles with the stone feature tiles and a shower, that's not in a bath.
 Walk in robe ( not finished)
 Boofys room and robe with TV unit top left and the blue wall :o)
 The toilet ( not finished)

 Boofys bathroom ( not finished) the mirrors are a slim cupboard for all the girly cans of stuff.
 These are not pigeon holes they are the wine rack, the front door looks good will be even better when the side light glass is fitted and on the right is Chrissy's display cupboard that i didn't get a front on picture of, the floor tiling has started.
 The kitchen ( not finished ) you get the feeling there is a theme going on here.
 The family room tiling well on the way, no the walls not pink its the wall of the workshop!
 The dinning room looks good, even better if it was finished.
 The kitchen no bench tops Thursday then got to wait for the splash backs.

These holes are going to be the deck area if some one gets around to building it.
On Thursday it will be 12months since the fire the build contract was for 214 days on Friday it will be approximately 240 days and counting, the frustration is starting to show and there is still at least 3 or 4 more weeks to go unless some one gets really busy!!!
