Devil with a blue dress

Things are flying along. On Thursday I had gutters. Today I have blue petticoats! You can really get a sense of the rooms now. I think I've made the other bedrooms too big and the bathroom too small. But hey, I won't be living in that part, will I :)





Cabinetmaker has quoted kitchen, bathroom cabinets and laundry cabinet and come back with a price that surprised me - it was actually less than I'd thought. Now to select colours *sigh*. Bathroom tiles are also on the agenda.

The way things are moving I might be data cabling next weekend. Best go buy that label maker. Oh and a hammer .. and um .. clip thingies .. and um .. those wall brackets .. and um .. conduit, just in case. And price the Hills Whosit. I love high tech geek talk *ruff ruff*

So much to do, so little headspace.



I have a doorstep!


Looking into living from end of front hall.
Kitchen half wall is on the right front of the picture.


Living looking towards media door. Doors to al fresco on left.

And the garage has frames for the door!

All trussed up

The past two days the carpenters have been putting up the trusses. They are nearly finished and now it's really 3D. I can see how high the ceilings are. 2550 or 8'6" in the old language - bit of a difference to the ten footers I have now. The hall might need a skylight in it - I think it will be dark.



I'm not sure what comes after this part. Fascias? I know it's gonna get an anticon blanket laid over the top, then the roofing.
