• Hey Sumali I need your mobile again cause I got a new phone.

  Would you and Andy like to come over for dinner sometime at Blacktown? I’ll try and invite Rhea as well.

It was too windy to work on the gutters this weekend, so we diverted our energy else where…

We picked up the swinging chair from Andrew and Mala’s place and installed in our tree!

Plus we got the cold water hooked up to the vanity!

We also bought a heap of stuff for our new kittens which are nearly ready to leave the litter!

• oh man, that sink is fancy schmancy! nice to see the place coming along. surprised that you are getting kitties too! very cool.

  as a cat owner myself, i can recommend that you guys use Breeders Choice for litter. apparently it’s flushable, which helps with getting rid of #2s. you can buy a 35litre bag of it for $20 at Aussie Pet Supplies [183 Parramatta Rd, Haberfield] which is pretty good value considering they sell the same brand at Coles/Woolies for $20 but only a 20litre bag.

  i sound like a crazy cat lady now so i’m going to stop talking.

• We’ve changed what we’re going to name them cos Sugar and Spice just wasn’t working and didn’t really roll of the tongue. We ended up making them Jelly and Jam, we’re absolutely loving them, look fwd to a lot of posts on them!

  Rhea I plan on becoming that crazy old cat lady one day, nothing wrong with crazy…I need to get some cat practice in.
  Haberfields a bit far away, is it close to you? Maybe we should work out some kind of kitty litter deal between the two of us. Speaking of bargains we were going to buy a $60 scratching post at the pet store but luckily we decided to wait and shop around. Aldi had/has them on special for $20 so that was an awesome saving. Oh and that pink hand toy thing really sucks, they don’t react to it at all.

• Nice vanity….

This weekend Amila and Khris came round and helped, last weekend Andrew and Mala came and put a heap of hours in. Thanks everyone for helping!

Got our metal fascia cover and gutter. 48m of each. We have about 30m of cover up so far, including most of the hard bits, so the rest should go up quickly.

We got a big ladder to help us paint and stuff around the house. Its got adjustable legs for use on uneven ground. Works an absolute treat!

• Very clever ladder – if you look a few posts later you’ll notice Khris finished the rest of the painting on that side. I’m surprised chewy doesn’t have more paint on him…

I also pulled down the little garden shed thingy which was along side the house. Just a few bashes with the sledgy and a bit of a push…

Despite not having a lot of time this weekend with Jojo, Dana and Mia coming down, I did find time too pull half the gutters down!

This weekend we put together and installed the Cuckoo clock Andrew and Mala got us from Switzerland. Its very pretty and works a treat. It is bit noisy in the middle of the night tho…
