Where did the last 8 months go?

It was only when I checked my website today that I realised my blog was so out of date that it was throwing up an error on my website. How bad is that!

The house is now inhabited - we moved in on the 25th November when it was still unplastered and surrounded by blue tarpaulins. Over the next three months Nat and I plastered the whole house - not a lightweight job by any stretch of the imagination. I totally understand why the quote came in at $26000 for the plastering - it's worth every cent but we did it ourselves.

Since then we've gradually been painting and working on the interior which is the fun bit as we slowly see the dream appearing out of the plaster dust and grime.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - there is nothing as satisfying as building your own home..... nor as stressful!
