Progress


I know you've all be waiting with baits on your breath (family in-joke) for the next update.

There has been a lot going on, but not much that shows up in photos for a blog post.

As you can see above, we now have a fancy-schmancy front door - no key required! Ideal for someone like me who misplaces their key more often than I'd like to admit.

The slab for the shed has also been poured, and in fact the framing is now going up too.

Inside the house, the plumber and electrician have been busy running pipes and wires everywhere. 



Last week the ceiling insulation was installed, with the walls to be done next week.

Still no bricks yet though. Local kids have been very excited that we're building a blue house, they're going to be so disappointed when the bricks finally get done. Hopefully in a week or so. I'm dying to see the bricks go on because then it'll really start to look like what it's going to look like!


It's been pretty wet these last few weeks, but when the sun shines it's a great time to go down there and dream about when we live there...

 And how about that sunshine streaming into my bedroom! I'm going to have a reading/knitting chair in that far corner and you're going to need a crowbar to prise me out of it come any sunny Sunday.
