I just hope I don't have as many post's as Deemaree before my slab is down -sorry Dee, laughing with you Belial Nice to have you along Janelle, can't wait to see it all come together for you. And trust me whilst that time between settlement and a scrape will seem like an eternity even compared with all the time you've waited so far. But it will all fade into insignificance when you get that first hint of progress. Definitely agree with you Belial! It felt like forever between settlement and when they poured the slab! Janelle Hey flagstaff - the block is 758m2 the house is 29 squares. Very nice! I'm checking out your blog!! Re: My building Thread - I now have my own patch of dirt 10Jul 20, 2010 10:39 pm Hi Janelle, Congratulations on land settlement. Now the good part will start soon. It can be exciting and frustrating building, but it will get there. I hope you enjoy the process. Colours sound nice. Jay A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

The suspense is killing me. Like the rest of you I'm just going to have to suck it up and try and find my patience. Hey Twiggy - I did see Mandalay on here somewhere, I jumped on thinking I had found someone building the same house as me. lol Hey Kaylee - Thanks, I hope the colours work. I can't believe how much colour selection consumes your life. I'm glad that part is behind me now.

Re: My building Thread - I now have my own patch of dirt 16Jul 20, 2010 11:27 pm flagstaffIV I love your floorplan Janelle! It's abit different compared to the bigger companies. I especially think the back storage area is a great idea! It is a different, the layout will work great for us. I also love that storage area, It'll save me having to build the old tin shed in the back yard. My favorite area is the main living area. It has nice big raked ceiling that makes that area seem huge. I've been checking out your thread, your house seems to be coming along really quick. Your colours look great. BTW I love your canister and tea towels. Did you buy the Ikea dining table and grey chairs - I love them. I also love that couch.

Our land settled last week, and we are expecting to be released to construction on Friday. Hey Carlswil - congrats on your land settlement. So you must be feeling the same as me. Trying to find your the patience. It seems silly we can wait months and months for land, but waiting for a few weeks for site start seems like an eternity.
