Finally finished the inside of the house!

The inside of the house is all finally packed away, including the downstairs. Now we have full use of the house. On Saturday we went to a swamp boat race at OHs work, which was great fun. All the boys were so competitive and some of them jumped in the dam to rescue their boats multiple times! We brought the dogs and they ran around like mad things all day, chasing the boats and swimming out to lick unfortunate competitors fetching their boats.

On Sunday after a lazy morning we got stuck into it. We had to clear out everything in a staged manner, so we could fit more stuff in! First was the carport, which we had laid out a heap of new stuff that was bought by the owner. After packing that away, we finally got the owners car in the carport, where it will probably stay until he gets back. It is good to get it off the driveway. After that, we rearranged the downstairs (including a big pile of OHs stuff) to make some more room for other stuff from upstairs. We moved some of our bigger furniture items downstairs, like a spare desk and TV. Then we finally emptied the spare room. Luckily most of it was already in plastic tubs, so it was mostly a matter of carrying them downstairs. This is the room before:





And this is the room after:





We keep some of our old shop stock and random things like ski jackets in the spare room normally so they went there again. It is good to have all of the inside of the house sorted out! We have full use of the loungeroom and can entertain guests if we need. We finally vacuumed and mopped the WHOLE house fully since we moved in. Took a long time, but still, Hooray!

Next job is clear the driveway of the big piles of rubbish we have managed to make. That will be a relief when we can get all of it to the dump. Then we have to work on the ute a bit so that will probably take up most of next weekend.

Have a good week!
