Rant

I can't find my camera charger. It's driving me a little insane, but not as insane as if something was actually happening around here at the moment and I was unable to capture it due to inoperable camera issues. We're in, but only half unpacked. We have too much stuff and not enough space to put it in. There's a whole room being used to store construction related tools because we need to sand and paint it in order to actually move stuff into it. Which still won't really solve the space problem because then the tools will be moved into the next room to be prepared and painted. I feel like we're camping, but in a house.

There's not much happening because we're focusing on the old house so that we can get tenants in there. Then we'll be able to focus on interesting things like finishing plumbing in preparation for pouring slabs/pouring slabs/finishing showers/buying stupidly overpriced ovens/etc. I wish I wasn't so incredibly impatient, but after the last few months of having something new to look at, at least weekly, it's a little bit hard to be so inactive.

Oh I hear you! The stuff, the mess, the losing things, the waiting time, the money worries... I so hear you. If it is of any comfort.. you are not alone... there is someone living in a reno out there also frantically searching for their camera charger!
It's good to rant.... that's all I ever do in my blog. I'm surprised I still have readers but the ranting helps me cope! A-M xx

Ha! This is the story of my life. Move all our stuff to one end of the house and then have to move it all to the other, then move it upstairs, then move it downstairs...

Tonight we have an excellent evening planned of moving all our stuff out of a spare bedroom for the builders to get in there. I can't wait.

I'm hearing you dear Anna - this has been my life for the past 3 years! Hang on in there & breathe deeply, it will be worth all the pain for the beautiful end result.

We moved and renovated last year. We finally got to the point where there are no tools and boxes piled around, but it's still a work in progress.

Good luck!
