Anyway, the list as it stood August last year...with updates in blue
- New fence - Finally happening next week!
Painted lounge room + kitchen- Done- Paint the rest of the doors - Ha! Maybe one day! I'll let you know on the 4th anniversary!
- Floorboards sand and polish - Chose to carpet rooms but main living/dining/hall still need attention. Glad we haven't done this yet as there would have been a lot of damage with all the bathroom renos.
- Finish the spa area - in progress again. The spa is in and usable, just not pretty. No further progress, it'll happen when the deck does.
Bathroom/laundry renoWaiting on the replacement bath to arrive but totally get to cross this off!Deck out the front- Changed to paving and is DONE!Vegie garden- DoneChook shed- Done
Re-hang pictures that have been down since painting (in January)- DoneGet old wardrobe doors back on or buy and hang new ones (they have been off since February)- Done
So, what is on the agenda for the next year?
- Finish two garden beds in the front yard
- Finish painting toilet
- Stain and varnish French doors on the back of the house
- Deck on the back of the house
- Build two more veggie garden beds
- General maintenance of things we've already done like cleaning and sealing pavers, weeding etc
The deck is the big one and not really likely to happen any time soon as funding will need to come from my return to work and I would rather the extra time off than a deck!

You have accomplished so much you must be very proud of yourselves and well deserving of that bottle of champers I think! Our 3 yr anniversary was last month too, I should do a little list as well is a real sense of achievement isnt it :) My to do this for this year is finish the front driveway, fence and landscaping. Fingers crossed as it really sux having no driveway I have to use ramps to get my car in and out of the garage!
Our 3rd year house anniversary was in May so there must have been a few of us move into new homes at the same time! You've done really well so far, its not easy trying to renovate and have a life at the same time :)
Well done! Something so very satisfying when you get to cross off things in your list. I sometimes write things down that I have already done (but didn't write on a list) just so I can have the satisfaction of crossing them off! You must really be enjoying your not so new house now - like a broken in pair of shoes.
Thanks ladies! I think a few of us must have taken advantage of the first home buyers grant at it's peak!
Kirsa - I do that thing with lists too!
