#6 OPEN HOME

 

*sigh*... another Open Home this afternoon.

I hate them so much.  There is so much anticipation and hope.  Hope that someone walks through the door and goes "YEP".

Even though we do have a 'Registered Interest' in the house, we still would like to sell NOW, as opposed to however long it's gunna take for that person to get their finances sorted out.

So this morning will be spent getting the house 'just right'.  And that won't take us long, so we will probably go out somewhere just to kill time.

ABOVE:  Bloody cute!

ABOVE:  Lacy and Keera spent yesterday at the beach.  The crazy tarts even got in the water!  Brrrr... way too cold!  

Right, off to start the day, catch ya later.

ONWARD...

ABOVE:  RHR #2 is ready for getting all the stitching done around the small details.

Late last night I went back into the sewing room, after thinking I wouldn't...

ABOVE:  #2 ready for stitching, and two more, at the beginning stage.

Those two, #'s 3 & 4 will be much smaller size wise... as in not long runners at all.  Unless I build them up with blue borders?   I ran outta white!  *snort*  Some thought needs to go into them.

12.30pm.   We went out for a couple of hours, I got more white fabric for runners, then we took my phone to a tech place to have a new battery put in it.

It  was constantly running down, way, way too fast.  I had to charge it up to 3 times a day!

So last night I finally got a  warning message, saying my battery needed to be replaced.

$110 later, and it's done.

I imagine my 'battery anxiety', worried my phone would die at the wrong time, is a bit like 'battery anxiety' with an electric car.

I am NEVER getting an electric car.  For so many reasons.  Too many to even list.

We are now doing all the last minute things around the house, I got a new floor cleaner, that I hope makes the wood laminate flooring look better than it already does.  I'd like it to shine, but there just isn't any floor polish on the market that I can find.  Weird.

KATE:  I will keep two of those 'Round House Runners' smaller, so you have options.

I might even make a few more smaller ones, I've had people ask after smaller runners before.  Can't hurt to have a few other options.

6 pm:  Our Open Home went very well, we had more people through today than any other day.

We are now all enjoying our dinner of meatloaf and cheesy mashed potatoes.  Steve is having Steak, Eggs and Haloumi cheese.

The kids LOVED my meatloaf!  Finally, something they all loved.

I have lots of photos and a little video of Lily... but I will 'save' them for tomorrow's post.  There's quite enough on here for today.

7.33 pm:  And everyone has gone home, the dishes are done and the house is ship shape again.

Time to put our feet up and just relax till bedtime.

Catch ya tomorrow.
