Week Twelve - The Sacking of the Supervisor

Well, Wednesday was interesting, with a call from both our site supervisor and from the building company to let us know that our site supervisor was no longer working for them.  Oops.  Credit to the builders - the transition to our new supervisor (who we knew well from the quoting process) went perfectly smoothly. 

Lots of different bits and pieces being attended to this week.  The concrete stairs to our carport were made a bit steep - so they had to be ripped out and redone.  This was a shocker of a job.  The poor apprentices got stuck with this one of course - on a hot Saturday no less.  So I ran out and bought some donuts and icy cold drinks that they guzzled in no time at all. 

Our shower screens went in, although they were supposed to be semi frameless and they are not.  So we get new ones in the New Year.

The balustrading on our back stairs was rotting so they threw in a new one for us - very kind, and the curtain battening was put up in the carport.

To top it all off, the silly season has begun so we got to put up our Christmas trees (yes, one up, one down) in our new rooms :)

I was going to say our messy rumpus room - but it gets a lot worse!!

  1. A few hiccups, but still heading in the right direction. :-) The rumpus room looks like the kids will have plenty of room!
