In The Midst Of It

The renovations have been underway for over a month now.

I’m surprised I’m still somewhat sane. I always swore I’d never live in a house that was being fixed up like this.

When will they be finished? That, my friends, is the million dollar question.

Our room.  It has been painted and has new carpet, but the window frame still needs to be painted and the broken glass replaced (see, it has been boarded up with cardboard). We also recently had new powerpoints put in.

The dining room.  The old carpet was stripped away leaving the disgusting black stuff you can see in this picture.  You had to wear shoes in there otherwise it would get all over your feet.


The kitchen with its concrete floor.

Lounge room.  It has been completely stripped, the ceiling has been replaced, and now it needs painting and recarpeting.

New ceiling awaiting painting.

The enclosed verandah which is just a mess of furniture and other stuff at the moment.  We call it the 'long room'.

Spare room.
