Well things have been a little quiet on the reporting front for a while. But we have making headway in that time! The entry/study and bathroom are practically finished, and we have transformed the lounge area. This is a very fine thing, and is making a) the living space far more pleasant, and b) the end feel like it is in sight. Here's the photos before and after. The first was taken the day the house settled, the second was taken today.
During the work in the lounge, we also moved the TV to a spare room. _This_ has been fabulous. The kids even spend less time watching it, as it isn't as comfy and close to the fireplace, which has to be a good thing.
Other than that, we have also fancied up the front yard a bit, which is something we have been thinking about for a while, but finally inspired by Morabbin's backyard room. We made a cute bit of paving that is going to be the centre of a rose garden, with a row of fruit trees behind it.
Better get back to it - it is actually a nice day up here. Yay!
It's Easter Sunday today. Happy day to you. We slept in today to the luxurious time of 0730 - very decadent these days with my usual 0530 start! And we didn't get woken up by roosters, as we did the organic farm thing yesterday and feasted like kings last night. Today, we planted a tree (a callistemon)
We are starting on the kitchen soon, which means I'll have to stop changing my mind for what I want. I'm thinking more of this sandstone could be good, but who knows.
Joe bought the kids a go-cart for Easter, which has been excellent fun. They have been tearing around the yard, until jarrah got three punctures in one go, which has slowed things down a bit.
