Working round the clock!

The excellent news is that we finally got into our new house last Friday – at last. The move was a bit of a hassle cos they’d left the place pretty dirty and weren’t even all done with their moving out when we got there with the keys. Not the best way to get into a new place, and we had to spend the whole of that evening with a team of about 8 people just cleaning so that we could move stuff in. We have started about 20 separate jobs round the house – new flooring which I’m busy with at the moment, laying wood floor in the main living room which is going ok. Sure it won’t be the perfect job but it will do us ok. We’ve got some carpet being laid next Monday and loads to do to be ready for then, so another weekend of stripping and painting etc. It’s manic for now but the place is starting to look at little bit like we want it and more like ours. It is such a good place – loads of space downstairs to have people over, with 3 bedrooms upstairs. We ripped out some fitted closets in the main bedrooms so there’s loads of rubble all over the floor in there at the moment.

So many people have been round helping us, so a HUGE thanks to you all - we would have been really struggling without you. It's great to be part of such a large family in the kingdom of God.

Gotta get on with some painting...and laying this flooring! Bye for now.
