House housekeeping

It's time again for some house, housekeeping. Just so I can look back on this blog in 10 years time and laugh at what a jolly time we had living in a shed, on a farm, TRYING to build our house. Yeah right.

1 Went to see the draftsman last week. He is waiting on the house plans that the engineer currently has and who SHOULD be working on them right now. He said to me "Michelle, stop crossing your arms"...

2 Went to see the draftsman today. He is going to see the engineer today as he has something ready. Our plans perhaps. He said to me "Michelle, take your hands off your hips"...

3 Me hoping that he is getting the impression that I am totally pissed off and sick of waiting for my effing house plans. 3 months and still going...

4 Our builder rang yesterday wondering what is going on and where our completed house plans are. How the hell should I know? He also can't understand what the hold up is.

5 We have decided that we will keep visiting the draftsman EVERY week and push and push and keep this ball rolling. My patience is at an all time low..

6 On a brighter note, we had the tractor slashing our tracks all around the property today, for our firewalls. We are burning off very soon as the grass is super long and crazy. We are then buying some cattle. Then I will be a bona fide farmer.

7 I now plan to walk these tracks with my Ipod, trying ever so gingerly not to step on a snake.
