One Foot in Front of the Other

It really is one foot in front of the other at the moment.
The kitchen is all but finished.  When I say all but, they had not told the workers that the dishwasher was integrated and had a panel.  So the dishwasher is in but has no panel.  It shows what I know.  I thought the dishwasher was in backwards.  It was not.  It was just the panel was missing.  It all opens normally but the front needs to be finished.  The head worker said he would be back to do that.
The good thing is though the rest is good to go.  The splashback is there, and all the power connected.  Now it is a case of transferring everything back the way we want it.  That is actually a lot of stuff.  So our lounge is crowded with stuff that has been slowly disappearing into the kitchen.  The fish will go back there eventually.  In the meantime, he is in his tank in my room.
So this week is dedicated to getting the kitchen the way we want it along with a general tidy up of things we have been letting hang.  Plus other things we want to do.  It really looks like this break time is full.  There is the mowing to do again.  It is not like that is done once and then it is done forever.  It is not long since I mowed last time.  It seems the grass loves summer.  It just grows and grows.  Time to do it again.  Then there is stuff we want to give to the market.  Before we can do that though we will be taking a trip today to trash and treasure with the stuff that did not sell from our last couple of markets.  I am looking forward to that.  I am hoping to have more storage room as a result.
There is stuff at home here to that needs to go to the dump.  Where possible we use bins, but they are in general use too.  One new thing is we now have a green bin.  That is really handy for garden waste.  It has been used on the first day it was collected, and I can envisage what goes into it for the next visit.  We use a lot of stuff for mulch, but some stuff (branches) is too big for that.  So it is cut down and put in the bin.  We also put weeds in there.  There is no shortage of them. 
So we have enough on our plate for this “holiday” period.  I have not mentioned the granny flat or shed, or library.  They all involve hours of work.  Despite all to be done one thing is for sure though - we will be having plenty of breaks and celebrating.
