Now that we're living in the house you might think that we can put our feet up for a while. Not so! There is SO much still to do in order to finish every room, many of which still have even no flooring. (The rooms not in any way finished are: our bedroom and ensuite, the utility room, downstairs bathroom, study, family room and entrance hall.)
On a different note, can you see where we've had two beautiful owl 'splats' on the new window? No bodies found to date, so hopefully they'll get used to the new glass without any casualties.
Due to the tragic Shoreham Airshow crash which was right next to Adrian's offices, Adrian spent his first day back after the holiday working from home, in the temporary office of Emma's bedroom!
Shoes were one of the final thing to retrieve from the caravan (up 'til then entailing many more disorganised daily trips up and down the garden path, in the rain), and Adrian's super shoe rack is doing a great job of keeping everything tidy in the new hall.
If you look back at my earlier blogs you will see progressive pictures of the downstairs bathroom, sometimes with no roof, sometimes no door. It is great to have a second toilet plumbed in, as long as you don't mind sharing the room with a table saw!
Another simplification of domestic life is the retrieval from the awning of the washing machine and tumble dryer, now plumbed into the (otherwise untouched) utility room. Much easier to sort laundry when it's all under one roof.
We are also looking forward to work on the outside starting in a couple of weeks, beginning with the front driveway. Time to make our house look a little less of a building site!
