Re: Gogo's build...it's happening tomorrow!!!!!!!!! 3522Aug 02, 2012 9:50 pm Lot927 Congrats Gogo a new journey is about to begin for you and your family enjoy the ride. The fun is about to begin ! Thanks cass was just listening to the tv and they were saying that 70%of kids return home after leaving, looks like this journey may be longer than expected kiwi Wow, fab! Thanks kiwi! PS4314 :Looking fab Gogo and that front door is . Good luck for tomorrow; with the amount they've done today they may even be finished early - ok, I'm being an optimist. Just make sure you take 10mins after handover, when everyone has left and before you hit the frenetic box carryng, just to breathe it all in and enjoy the moment. Thanks Ruth, I love your optimistic thinking but the most optimistic I'll be is that they even finish Thanks for the reminder about taking 10mins, I do that as much as possible in life, when I'm somewhere that I really want to remember, I sit and take a minute or two and remind myself what it took to get there, and where I'm Going from there Deemaree :z: thanks dee scgia1 Gogo one more sleep or lack thereof I actually slept last night which surprised, hopefully will sleep tonight too, hope you come for a visit over the Weekend oh and last sleep in this gorgeous house greenfish Yay Gogo some positive news!!!

The house pics look great. Hope all goes well tomorrow!! TashnStu77 Looks AMAZING Gogo! I especially love the shot looking back to your door, those dark bamboo floors with the shiny tiles looks so crisp and classic..nearly went exactly like this in my house which is why I like it so much, in a richer life I really could have happily built two different styles of house. You're so close now, I bet you can't believe it. Thanks tash, so very kind, I know what you mean, I need to build four or five homes so I can build all the different styles I like willcres Wow!! It's really happening, isn't it??!! So excited for you, gogo... Good luck for tomorrow! Yep!!!!!!!! Thanks willcres, I can keep an eye on your build now! SunshineT nina marie Getting emotional for you here - ruths comment re breathing it all in set me off!

So Zen are magicians after all. So excited for you... Thanks T, yeah we will all get their eventually some take longer more windy roads but we all get there eventually!! I think the two Matt's have spent most of their time at house the last two days, Matt b said they just want to get through ours, SC's, yours and lot 13 then go back to Thailand Hills111 Your house looks beautiful. Enjoy moving in. Thank you so much hills Vess Its looking amazing. How clean are the floors!!! I need that cleaner stat! Haha it was Matt the SS cleaning the floors when I walked in! And the apprentice!, they still have lots of dirt, but think it will keep appearing for a couple of weeks jodge There are an awful lot of "wow"s in this thread. . . have you noticed? Shouldn't take you 10 minutes to down that first glass of Dom. . . I'm thinking about 10 seconds. . . hurray! Hehehe lots of wows, very humbled by them Need to go to Dan Murphy's and buy said Dom or Moët tomorrow as well as a case of beer for the boys, I'm sure they think they deserve it more than me rocketship Congratulations! It all looks great but I especially love the photo looking from back to front door - are you doing any kind of art on those big walls??? I know it looks pretty doesn't it, exactly how I imagined! I have two big picture things for the niches in the main entry that DH gave me for my birthday, have bought another two arty things but not sure where to put them yet, also have some paintings I bought in Africa that I want to get framed, think I need to just wait and see what goes where Re: Gogo's build...it's happening tomorrow!!!!!!!!! 3523Aug 02, 2012 9:57 pm If you are sleeping there tomorrow night, what sort of gorgeous temporary blinds do you have???? When are your blinds expected to be fitted??? Re: Gogo's build...it's happening tomorrow!!!!!!!!! 3524Aug 02, 2012 10:02 pm I think it will be newspaper or sheets I kept on thinking I must get blinds sorted, but of course left it to the last minute, hoping they will be installed next week, not worth putting anything else up for such a short period of time. Re: Gogo's build...it's happening tomorrow!!!!!!!!! 3525Aug 02, 2012 10:13 pm ooooh the excitement and the suspense is driving me mad!!! I think I am definitely going to have to think up an excuse to drive by on Saturday.... Can't wait to see your house finished. After all the journey. As for the finishing our jobs then heading off to Thailand - that would be right! I was wondering when they were going to disappear again...

As for the finishing our jobs then heading off to Thailand - that would be right! I was wondering when they were going to disappear again... Yeah the air con guy said ok I'm off on holiday now to Thailand, Matt looks at me and said I wouldn't mind going to Thailand, I looked at him and said yeah it must be at least 2months since one of you have been, he's like yeah I know we are hanging out to go just have to wait till we finish these homes, poor boys feeling sorry for them...NOT The suspense is driving you insane I'm really excited tonight, haven't packed a damn thing kitchen table and lounge sold on eBay and picked up, throw out heaps, then whatever is left over take with us. Told both the kids they can pack there own rooms up and take it over themselves, the joy of them both driving! I'm so excited just to pull out my new dinner sets, glasses, cutlery etc scgia1 Yep it's about time they went I just want to be in now. Hope I'm next week but prob the week after I had another chat to Matt how it was unfair today SC, I told them they had to get over there tomorrow after 3 SunshineT ps: now gogo, you must also promise us not to disappear from here once you are actually in. pps: SC - nah, definitely further behind than that. This week we had barely any progress and still so much to be done. We are hoping end of the month or early Sept.
