House 2 nearly finished

It's been nearly a year since we took possession and begun renovating this house. We're nearly nearly there. Didn't quite get it done before the holiday we soooo badly need. We're both exhausted to the point that it's hard to drive without falling asleep. Day jobs Monday to Friday and then renovating all weekend, every weekend... tired tired and worn out. But, the house is looking fabulous. The bedrooms are done: Main, 2nd front and 3rd

The bathroom is complete. It's adorned with an orangy-red glass sliding door - absolutely dazzling touch.

And the lounge dining is dressed and ready.

The kitchen is just getting some kickboards and a clean and it's finished also. The laundry is pretty much done. The toilet room has been relined, but one wall is a bit rough, so thinking of wallpaper in there and we're still to level the floor and tile (one more weekend needed for that).  We've had to build a new back door entrance, but that's done. Then we've got to build some stairs to the new french doors (x2) and voila.

But we're off to the warmer weather on the Gold Coast for a week and we don't care. We can't care that we didn't get the house finished and rented in time. It's just too bad. The ad on Trademe can wait a week. Hopefully we'll come back renewed and be able to smash the last few jobs off the list.

We better be quick because we take possession of no.4 a week after we get back. Oooh nooo what have we done??
