Home!

Furniture has been polished, food has been relocated to the swishy new fridge, carpets have been unrolled and vacuumed, satellites have been realigned, computers have been plugged in.

We’re surrounded by boxes of stuff that have absolutely no purpose but we’re finally home and we couldn’t be happier.

Only the Internet is slightly beyond our reach …

Cheers to Penfold, DaddyP, LoTG, SurftwinDaisyfae, mommabeatStinkypaw, and John for their comments on And There Was Much Rejoicing …

        Ooh good, I have some faith that you’ll actually take them – I’ve given up on Penfold. At least you won’t have to look for film as well.

    Happy New Home :-D

    • Tango says:

      Thanks 70s! Not quite the oasis of tranquility we were aiming for, just a few more odds and ends to finish … like hallway floors, doors, lights, kitchen worktops & cupboards, bedroom ceilings, etc etc etc … *phew*

    is the ‘crossed’ tape measure a talisman of good fortune? you deserve it! congratulations on the new crib!

    • Tango says:

      Thanks! :-)

      The tape measure is more of a “How long is a piece of string?” reminder whenever I ask the question, “When will this house be finished?”

        Reminds me when I was stuck out in the boonies six years ago. Downloading Gig plus sized installer files over a phone line.

        Did a lot of streamlining of my system and what I did online due to it.

        So thankful the neighbors don’t know how to lock their WiFi routers. (giggle snort)
