The concreting is all done and now the builders are going to do the wardrobes in the two bedrooms. So this weekend has been chaos - Z and I unpacked all of the boxes of gear she left here before going overseas. After reviewing the contents with new eyes we were able to list heaps of things on Freecycle. Almost all has been collected or will be during the coming week. Apart from the cathartic feeling that purging 'stuff' gives you, it was a great feeling to be able to pass on lots of good quality things to people who really wanted them.
I have also emptied all of our clothes and shoes from the existing wardrobes in both rooms so it is now clear for the building work to start. However, the rest of the house looks a bit like a bomb site. The 3rd bedroom is barely able to be entered, the ironing board is in the lounge and the 2 portable hanging racks which G bought from Bunnings this morning are now loaded with all of our clothes and living in the front entry.
I took Z to Brisbane this afternoon, where she is staying while she looks for permanent accommodation and of course, employment. We are keeping our fingers crossed for her.
Today I also installed the software for my new camera (with some help from Z) and downloaded the photos from my camera (including the ones from Japan). I will try to get them into some sort of order and post a link to them in a day or so.
