How The Dust Settles

The sofas are in place, and most of the bookcases.
We just have to wend our way around various boxes to get to them.

It’s been a good week.
A tiring one.
But good.

I had an unexpected trip on Monday, and banged my head against the back door. No big deal, really, but it’s slowed me down a bit. We also woke up yesterday to the rain coming in through the entryway roof, but that was speedily resolved by a call to the real estate agents and a visit from the plumbers. The entryway light bulb doesn’t strobe now, so that’s a bonus! 😀

We’re steadily getting the hang of this place.
The bedrooms are carpeted – something that we haven’t had for a while – so I’m waiting to see if it attracts dust. Haven’t noticed it happening so far.
I’ve got up to date with our washing (and you know you’re getting older when that makes you feel both excited and accomplished…), but the boys – not so much. This has meant they’ve both had occasion to improvise when going into the outside world – one wore pyjama trousers to pick up stuff from Target, and the other wore a full length dressing gown to Coles. They’ve worked hard putting furniture together and in place, though, and the dishes have all been washed ❤

It’s a bigger space here. And we’re in a part of town we’ve not lived in before. Lots to see and get used to!
Here’s the view outside my bedroom window.

There’s a shed outside, and the (flat) roof is just under our window.
There are heaps of leaves dotted about on it, and a pair of plovers seem to be frequent visitors. Here’s one of them.
