I'm Floored!!!!


Yes it's true....we have some flooring. Here's the proof.


And our countdown is not very far away now. We just have Carpet on Tuesday, a walkthrough on Wednesday final appliances next Monday, cleaners booked Monday and handover (could be Tuesday)!!!!



Then maybe we can stop feeling like a thief and looking through the windows so much...








Everything is coming together nicely and no more stress. That is until the bills start arriving and the credit card statement (oops).

CONCRETE

The path and driveway are set to be done this week (weather permitting). I was suprised by the price of the crossover though. I was told to expect $500 approx but it is $2,000! Just a small difference in pricing there. I know my block is bigger than the norm these days but surely not that much. Anyway it's too late to return all those new things for the house thankfully, I will just have to sell my soul. Maybe a bit dramatic but I will figure something out.

The timber floorboards are set to go down this week also and lots of finishing things - still waiting to be told when inspection day might be.

Huuurrrry up

How slow has this week gone!!! I mean really.

I haven't actually been out to the house this week, but I'm told I have shower heads and taps etc. Also i'm told the kitchen tap is the wrong one. Sent off an email this morning - no response yet. We wanted a square type one and we got a gooseneck one. Hopefully not a hassle to fix.

I will try to go out on the weekend and see what we are up to. Sold my old couch on ebay this week and new one is ready to be delivered. Also bought a TV cabinet off ebay - 1.8mts long so should look good. Can't wait to put everything in and set up.

Just been out and checked the house now it's got lighting. I think now is the hardest time for me seeing everything soooo close I just want in. I know I know not long to go but it's painful at least at the start you were just happy watching the progress and excited when something was done each time you visited but now you know there is only a couple of visits left and it will be moving day!!! hello to David and family if you are looking hope little baby Ryan is doing well and not giving Jacqui too much trouble.

I can see the finish line......

Come inside, have a cuppa.

The painters have all finished and the electrician has started. He has fit all the inside lighting and just needs to complete the outside.

All looking very nice, makes me want to move in now without the carpet!

Here are some photos of the doors now they are stained and I even took a picture of the heater control! Getting excited about all the little things.
