This is a very exciting place for three little boys to live. When they say they want action, boy do we bring it on! On Tuesday a Bobcat arrived to push over our front wall and lift the driveway pavers. It took one man and a mean vehicle about four hours to totally destroy our front yard. So this is what our house looks like. The left window is our lounge, then there is the front door. The main bedroom and our study are on the right. This great act of demolishing was followed by our first winter downpour so you can only imagine the the thick mud on what used to be our driveway. I have sent out a warning to all our friends: only come over if you have gumboots in your car. Ours are lined up in the entrance hall and are getting a good workout.
Today the cement path was laid and tomorrow we may get a driveway. After that the garage will go up and our house will be transformed. The new laundry finally has a floor and we are waiting for the brickies to return and give it walls then our en suite bathroom can stop doubling as a laundry, storeroom and entrance hall!
Meanwhile, inside we have wall papered the entrance hall in a decadent print, manufactured shelves out of internal doors and installed a fabulous free standing fireplace. With all this going on, the house work has been a bit lacking. I need to get organised, clean up and take some photos to post.
It's a bit busy around here.
