It's Been A while....

It's been a while since our last post - Sorry. We've been busy. We've had a few visitors come and go and it's been lovely to see everyone... Sadly - i haven't been that great at taking photo's! OOPS!

So we've been in the house just over a month now and we love it! We've settled in really really well. We've been starting to plan how we can get all our stuff back up from Melbourne... It's been hard to get quotes to have stuff shipped when you can't actually remember what you have there... it's going to be like Christmas when we see all our stuff again.... I love presents!!!!

We also realised yesterday it was 5 months yesterday (06/10/10) that we will be getting married! The time has gone so fast. We've been so occupied with the house building and moving and all that stuff that we haven't really done too much - so now it's time to get a wriggle on and get some stuff decided!

Here's a few pictures for you to see what we have been up to in the last few weeks.

Remember when we were at frame stage and Glen laid all those cables for the internet? Well here that are now that the house is build. Glen has put the cables all together and labelled the patche panel ready to go in the cabinet.

Then on the other end of those cables were all the wall plates. We have 18 data points throughout the house with 2 of those being outside.... you just never know when you'll need to google something!

Glen putting the finishing touches on the communications cabinet. Then we neatened up the cables and put the modem in there too! All very neat and so high up that i can't get a picture of it all finished. You can't see it from the photo's but glens kneeling on the fridge to put this all up!




Then after we got all teh cables in and the wall plates in. The modem went in and it was time to test drive the computers and use the fast internet again... but then my machine died. Lucky i live with the computer tech.

So I explained to the technicians exactly what the problem was. They seemed not that interested and like they'd heard it all before.

They opened the machine up to get a better look and saw straight away what the issue was.

They explained the problem to me and told me they were going to need to call in a specialist. One with opposable thumbs for a bit of help!


The specialist was fast and efficient. He did his work under the watchful eye of my tech.

After they'd inspected his handy work it was time for the finishing touches.

I guess they're nearly finished at this point. There was alot of snorting and coughing so it must have been a little stinky in there.

Then i guess there was a part leftover. There usually is when you pull something apart and put it back together again. They assured me it would all be ok. And it's running much better now. Thanks Spike and Chewi - you're the best computer techs ever!


I also took a few pics this morning of all of our small furniture in our nice big house!
From the front door looking through to the kitchen.

All the kitchen and out bargain kitchen stool.

Out tiny dinning table in the family/meals area. Can't wait to get my 8 seater up here!

Laundry.

Master Bedroom

And that's it for the moment. We're heading down to Melbourne in the morning for my brothers wedding on the 16th of October. So I'll have lots more to update you on and more pictures when we get back.
