We have been venturing out every Saturday for the last 6 weeks in the off chance we will see some sign our new home is about to spring up from the ground and take shape before our very eyes, and in the past there has been nothing.
Our friend’s house has been making good progress and we noticed it has been framed and wrapped in the last week, so we got out of the car and had a sticky beak which was fun in that we now cant wait to do that with our place.
When we finished our sticky beak we jumped back into our car and headed off to our block and low & behold we have a TAP.
I never thought I would get excited over a tap but is the first physical sign of progress in building our new home. No longer is progress measured in paper work signed, colours chosen no, now progress can be measured on what we can see and touch, and eventually walk through.
I am so excited, I have posted a picture of the now famous tap and you would have to admit, it’s quite a good looking tap, well as far as taps are concerned.
We only hope that by next Saturday our tap has a friend like form work or even a slab!
ah yes we couldn't help but smile when we saw our tap too - it's very significant!
ReplyDeleteMrs B and my family think I am a bit strange for being excited about the tap, I tell them they just dont get it ;-)
