Knock-knock

Who's there! 
Messssss! Tools everywhere! 
 I might have to put a ban on tool shopping don't you think?? 


Unfortunately the tool man is such a bargain that Rowan has a bit more 'birthday money' to spend! 

The large cedar doors from Justin have had new hinges attached and now the doors swing open! 


Rowan has attached draught stoppers and we are now sorted with gigantic grand doors to welcome our visitors through. 

The plastering continues throughout the lounge. Rowan has become a master at it, and it shouldn't be long until we can start painting. The end is coming! - don't laugh Vicki! 

We are in search of the perfect tap. We are just testing out measurements. This is clearly not  the final tap, although the price was right. Rowan made the bowl from a salad bowl from Broscoes. Perfect size for the little bench that Row whipped up last weekend. 

 
Sean popped up for a visit and was put straight to work planing fejoa trees. A gift from Row's work mate. 
Good job Sean. You're welcome to all you can eat fejoas anytime! 
The fruit trees are blossoming nicely so they must appreciate being in the ground finally. 

Moon setting. 6:30am.

No more rocking toilet!

The toilet doesn't wobble any more!!! 
"Right Maegs- what's the first job for the day"
An obvious choice for me was to get the toilet screwed down after 3 months of wobbling about! Warning visitors not to "jump around" on the toilet had begun to not feel so hospitable! 
It didn't take long, however the process was sped up with my handy (I never use) hairdryer to dry out the floor ready for the sealant.
" right Maegs, that's done. Now If you clean up then I'll be able to do 10x more jobs today" 

Like Making the bathroom bench 
Putting up architraves around the bedroom windows.

And hanging the bedroom door! 

Privacy and a secure toilet. What more could a girl ask for!
