Progress about the farm

Well it's been over 2 months since my reporting in on our progress on the farm so here goeth....
Ben has been here full time basically, since mid December and I followed New Years Eve....
I had to await for the truck to arrive to take our belongings up here.
The truck booked was for 30square meteres.......it was my luck that the driver arrived with a 75 sq.as he had a large load to take from QLD to Vic.....wouldn't you wanna know it , the truck was chokers full and couldn't take any more.......
You see the photo of the big barn Ben had built....well it's full.....lol and there is some in the house...lol
I dont know how I had all that in the small house in Sydney.
The first room to be completed here in the house was our room.....Ben painted it mostly by himself with little help from the neighbour.
His first task to do when the truck arrived was get the carpet tiles off the truck & lay them on our bedroom floor......the tiles are like a jigsaw puzzle where the pieces fits snuggly into each other.....
The instruction left was that ALL furniture was to be placed in the big shed until we ready...........
Well wouldn't you wanna know it, when I arrived New years Eve...here was all this furniture & boxes all stacked and I mean stacked & blocking every inch of the large verandah we have....
some wee leprachaun thought other wise and had them placed there....gggrrrrrr
here the majority remains as the renovations are still not complete.
We have now managed to move some in, like the computor desk and some smaller items but we still dont have the TV unit in place.
It's a slow slow process,
whom ever made up the phrase, rome wasn't built in a day, knew what they were taking about.
