Day 68 - TV Aerial on top

Catch Up Post #10 - 
Day 68 (Tues 6th July) -We have a TV AERIAL.... 

On top of our beautiful colourbond roof... ahem... excuse me while I gaze at it....



Here is the view from the side...


What else?
This is the garage.

 This is looking at the back kitchen wall. Its difficult to see in this but the plumbing pipes have been added. We asked for a extra pipe to plumb in our water to fridge (for the cold water/ice etc).

They have taken some soil (from the back) and spread it out down along the right side of the house. I assume it was to fix the problem of the buildup of water that had pooled there.

Not so lucky are these bricks - sitting in the mud patiently - around the back of the house... 

The bricks are sitting patiently...
(yes, bricks are better at being patient than I am :P)

hmmm... patience, patience...

(we are so close to completion and yet so far)

For me, this building journey really is a mental game... of keeping myself immersed in phrases, such as: 

Keep Calm
All is well
Soon we will be in the house,
looking back at this time of waiting

and lastly this little beauty (below) to remind me to
not just endure this process, but enjoy it and the amazing adventure it is...

With that I need to say a HUGE thank you to my man... with whom I spend much time laughing...
He can somehow manage to make me smile even when I am in the blackest mood or overwhelmed with stress... He is sooo much fun...
He makes me LAUGH :))))

I love u James!

  1. I love the extra cold water pipe. That is a great idea! Our bricks are going up and the benchtop is down http://my-investment-property.blogspot.com/2010/07/bricks-are-up-and-bench-top-is-down.html
