What a waste of a week, didn't see anything at all thanks to the rain, and rain and the rain. Saturday morning it was still coming down and our pool was nice and full. After the rain cleared around lunchtime we spent the rest of the weekend bucketing water out of the back area. We'd empty it, turn around and it was full again.
Peter and Phil were back today and were determined to get things moving. Despite there still being water seeking down the hill on the rock, we have the steel bars in place and the level ready for the laying of the concrete blocks.
The best news was Sam the Painter (and a Souths supporter, ahhh!) turning up on Friday and again today with a helper to paint upstairs. Sam got more done in one day on Friday than Deputy can get done in about a week and a half. Made Deputy feel very much like the amateur he is. The results are looking good. Top coats to come and the feature walls in Joel and Marissa's room however it is making a big difference.
The rain scared the air conditioning people away on Friday so goodness knows when they will be able to come back. Little by little we are getting there!
