NOW ...
Today is going to be a day to do all the odd jobs we have had to leave till the last week.
Weather permitting, Stew will mow these lawns for the last time.
Then he has to sort out his garden shed and the store room under the house.
Once that is done, all we have to do is pack our bags/food etc on Tuesday night and wait for the packers to arrive on Wednesday!
WOW WOW WOW.... it is getting really close now.
We will probably pop down to Bunnings to pick up the netting to keep the dogs in the new yard too. And price the drop down garage attic door too. We didn't get to do that the other day.
I'm sure there are a few other jobs I've forgotten. But as I remember them, I will write them down and get to them eventually.
OH shit. I just remembered one. CLEAN. THE. OVEN.
Months ago I got it cleaned by a cleaning company. Not doing that again, I shall just do it myself. I've tried not to do too much in it over the past few months so it shouldn't be too dirty. (fingers crossed)
NOT. LONG. NOW !
Two more sleeps in this house, then two sleeps in a motel... then we will be sleeping in OUR NEW HOME!
ONWARD...
TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK.... so much to do! And so much has to be left till tomorrow night. Frustrating. Want it over.
We just bought the wire netting for the fence, to keep the dogs in. It's one big job waiting to be done asap once we get to Cambridge.
Luckily it is fine today, Stew will be able to get the lawns mown. Big relief as they are long enough to make hay!
You know when you have a job to do... but you really DON'T want to do it? So you do every other job you can find to put it off? Yeah.
Been doing that all day.
But. I am going to pat myself on the back... cos I JUST CLEANED THE FRIGGIN OVEN.
Massive hate to do it job.
I looked in the oven at our new home yesterday. It looked like it had never been used! SCORE!
ABOVE: Everywhere you look.... boxes, boxes.
Something tells me I'm going to be seeing boxes for quite some time.
Stew's finally getting the lawns done. I've got a pot of beef stew simmering, it's got all the veges in it too... a one pot dinner tonight.
Well... we got a heck of a lot accomplished today. Both Stew and I are knackered now!
Stew's just gone to bed and I won't be too long hitting the sack either.

I think a trip away for you two sounds like a wonderful 30th Anniversary idea. Happy Anniversary for today, that's a great achievement. I look forward to reading about your new home - I bet your blog will be full of what you're up to... if you get time - you'll be so busy! How exciting, I'm thrilled for you all and hope the kids settle into their new school well too.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 29th - it is our 52nd today. All the best people get married on the Queen's birthday, lol. For us in England, it was D-Day parade and my then fiancé was in the British Army;, the RSM tried to stop our wedding (couldn't but froze our bank account!!). We went to Austria on our honeymoon with 7 pounds in our pocket!! Audrey, Rotorua
