THIS IS BIG FOR ...

This is big for someone.

Something is happening this morning.

But I'm not going to say what, until it actually happens.

All the 'dot the i's and cross the t's' have to happen first.

But it's really good news for someone.

And Stew and I couldn't be happier for that person.

First up for the day is to take Marley to the groomers.  Coco goes in another couple of weeks.

ABOVE:  My car is packed to the gunnells.  Hmmm... wonder why?  

It's not for a market.

I better get a move on.  I've got heaps to get done today.  EXCITING!

8.51 am:  And I'm proud to say I've been out walking!

I decided that there was going to be no time for a walk later on this morning or afternoon, so I walked Marley to the groomers.

We went the 'long way' so it was a decent distance for me.

ABOVE:  It was a nice distance, but we didn't go fast.  Still a good pace considering the leans involved on the way home!  Oh man I loathe leans!

I will be picking Marley up in the car, so she doesn't have to walk home again.  She will be tired after her groom.

ABOVE:  Gotta have a 'walk photo' right?  Shame about me face.  Might just go and put a bit of makeup on! 😂

12.21 pm:  It's done.

LACY HAS

A

NEW HOME!

She has finally been given a Housing New Zealand home of her own.  She signed the tenancy this morning.

She is finally SETTLED and happy.

ABOVE:  Her new, two bedroom home.  It is brand spanking NEW.  And perfect for her.  In a lovely area not too far from us.  Very handy.

ABOVE:  That first magic moment, signing the tenancy.

ABOVE: Being handed HER KEYS, to HER HOUSE.

ABOVE:  Amanda and I were there to help move all her stuff in.  There is more of the larger furniture type things arriving next week.

ABOVE: Lying on her beautiful new lawn.

ABOVE:  I am just so happy for her.  She is finally settled.

ABOVE:  Now she has the fun job of sorting out all her stuff, and finding places to put it all.

This house has plenty of storage, cupboards and 2 double wardrobes.  

ABOVE:  One corner is already pretty!  lol

She's getting a small table next week, so her runner will be going on that then.

We are slowly getting rid of the brown sectional couch setting we had.  Lacy has one section, and Brylee is getting another one when she gets her own place too.

So, that was the big news. 

I am now going to fluff around in our sunroom, rearranging it a bit, now that one of the brown sectionals has gone.

So, I put the brown sectional in the bottom part of the sunroom.  And it didn't fit very well.

I tried my HARDEST to get it back up into the other part, but couldn't.  It was just too heavy to get up the two steps for me.

It's the bed settee (Murphy Bed) section.

HEAVY AS F*#K.

I tried every different angle, swore heaps then gave up.

Stew got it up in one go of course.

That area is now way less cluttered and I'm really happy with it.  Photos tomorrow.

I had a quiet couple of hours after mucking around with furniture, feeling very tired now.

Stew is home, having a rum and coke, something he always has on a Friday night.

9.57 pm:  I'm absolutely knackered.  I tried to do too much this afternoon.  So, I'm off to bed early.  I don't think I'll have much trouble getting to sleep tonight.

Awesome. 

DAY 58 DONE AND DUSTED

Another day where it was super easy to resist anything on the 'banned list'.  lol
