After neither of being able to get the day off work we set mum up at the house to be ready for the installation of the appliances. I took this as an opportunity to have a few more things delivered while she waited. Every time mum called to give me an update somebody else was turning up - from sparkies, plumbers and delivery men the blinds were also installed. Mum, dad and Doug put the bed together before I got home and then Doug and I enjoyed a bottle of wine, pizza straight from the box and Ben and Jerry's straight from the tub. A picnic in our lounge room.
The weekend has been full of drives eternal the Hawkesbury and The Ponds, filling car loads and getting them inside. Mum and Dad have been amazing in their help - seems they are quite eager to get us out!
A sense of accomplishment though as the kitchen, family room and kitchen table are all sorted sans for a few paintings on the wall. But it feels like a home now - so long as you ignore the first few rooms in the house!
