The Mud House: Not long now...

It always takes me a few minutes to pull myself together after putting the kids to bed on days when they've been at kindy/daycare. Too much sleep during the day... Both boys making bedtime hell... 2.5 year old is up till 9.30pm or later, wired. I am trying not to think too much about how thats going to go in the caravan, although they do like the bunks. Will have to run them ragged around the new property. Fortunately there are lots of places to play.

The cubby house, complete with 'coop' on ground level. Must check it out for safety asap before the boys move across to the new property.

Enchanting path up the side of the house. Fortunately much of the garden came out of the flood pretty well. Nonetheless, lots of changes planned for the front yard! Can't wait.

Looks like we'll be setting up and shifting into our new digs in a week or so, once some concreting has been completed on the bottom level. Other Half's been in demolition frenzy, filling skip bags with over a tonne of muddy kitchen, laundry and bathroom. He's enjoying getting his hands dirty again, exhausted but happy.

I'm itching to get the caravan packed and sorted, but its just a bit too soon; Will have to focus on packing boxes and culling stuff -Ugh. Finding hard to motivate (and technology was not my friend today, then the washing machine gave up the ghost, with a huge odorous load waiting. Shame it couldn't hold out just one more week). Would so rather be hanging out at the Mud House and setting up the new accomodation, than sorting through all our junk! Am actually really looking forward to living in the van. Hopefully it'll assist us to get in the habit of having a lot less "stuff".

Its pretty comfortable, I think we'll cope. (fingers crossed ;)
