Andy's also been working hard to build some shelves in the garage to store all of his man things...and all of the stuff in the house that has to be moved for the major renovations. Now that we've finally got the doors on and we've got a secure place to store things, we've moved everything that was being stored in the downstairs rooms into the garage. And about 10 months after we first got them out to quote, we're finally getting the damp in the downstairs rooms fixed...yes, we are actually beginning our renovations!
Some more good news...we got the city council planning approvals on Friday, so truly one step closer to starting the major works. Now, we've just got to finalize the drawings and variations, and then we'll be ready to submit to council for the building licence...so, based on 4 weeks approval period, it should hopefully be about mid-July once we finally hand our house over to the building contractor! I'm so excited!
In the meantime, we've been taking care of our garden a bit as well, and we've actually got some pretty roses growing...and lots of retarded looking lemons on one of our trees as well! They make good lemonade!
Well, now that we're going to start some work, we'll hopefully have a few more updates over the next couple months to keep you guys in the loop! Watch this space :)
