First Day in New Home 3 February 2019
We are exhausted. Slept quite well last night in upstairs in bedroom 3 but tonight we'll sleep in bedroom 1. The village below us has maybe a hundred homes ranging in distance from us from about 100 meters to 500 meters. So I was amazed to sit in bed this morning drinking a coffee and able to hear quite loudly more than a dozen rooters engaging in their morning p@ssing match. Going out to the level 2 covered deck early in the morning and taking in the mountains and valley was everything I had hoped it would be. We still find it hard to believe our luck on managing to find and buy this land.
Today has been spent unpacking, unwrapping, putting together, placing in correct place, cleaning and organizing. Non-stop all day. The general duties gent was helping me but after the curtain folks arrived we could not do a lot in the house so I sent him home early and also gave him tomorrow off. Tomorrow will be his first day of not being at our site/home since mid-August. He has worked everyday since then.
The curtain folks did a great job although they have incorrectly measured the sliding door requirements. So glad it was their measuring and not me. They will be back to finish the job tomorrow but we are again delighted with what they did install. Again, we think we've nailed the colours. It really does look good.
