Week 24: Update from SS

Hi guys!

So hubby spoke to our SS yesterday and he said there is going to be a lot of progress done on the house within the next two weeks.

- Kitchen delivery & Installation.
- Bathroom Vanities delivery & Installation.
- Electrical cut outs.
- Doors to be fitted.
- Architraves to go on.
- Tiling begins most likely towards end of week 25.

How exciting!

I am pretty happy with this given that we have had so many weeks with no one on site, I feel like hopefully this will make up for it (if the tradies show up and do the work).

However, there is still so much to be done by us!

- We still need to choose our blinds/shutters.
- Still to choose our lighting.
- Still to purchase a new Fridge.
- Still to purchase a Washing machine.
- Still to purchase a dryer.
- Still to purchase my own ikea wardrobe!

The things we need to do before we move in are quite critical to me as we have a puppy and the fences need to be installed and there needs to be grass before we can move. I'm starting to fear that we won't have time as hubby works most weekends and cant really work on the house. Might need to ask some family members for some help.

How far am I in my packing stage? haha do not ask. So far all I've done is clear out my wardrobe of old a dingy clothes and clothes that I practically didnt wear.
Next steps for me would be to:
- Clean out my shelves!
- Pack my paintings and frames that we are not using.
- Go through my products (hair etc).

HOPING we have six weeks to go, I need to get my sh*t sorted. Eek.

Week 23: WE HAVE STAIRS!

Can I get a hallelujah!

It is about time that we got our stairs!

Decided to do a drive by to the house on Sunday last week as our SS did not call us for an update. Went there and found that they had installed our stairs. Walkeda round the home as per usual to see if there was anything else that was different and they had made little cuts inside the gyprock as to where they would cut out the circles for the light fixtures.

Our doors were also delivered! So, without speaking to our SS I am going to ASSUME that the doors should be going on this week, and the electrical cut outs should be happening also.

Di Lorenzo had notified us to let us know that the tiles we chose for our bathroom were out of stock which was a great big bummer but we got over it and chose new ones. The lady who served me at Di Lorenzo also told me that our site was released for tiling mid July which I am hoping by then we will have our kitchen and bathroom deliveries.

It's getting close now and I can taste it!

Really just want to move innnnnnnn
