Just a quick pick from last Sunday. Verandah is done with our names on the end!
I’m so amazed people can be so fucking lazy! How hard can it be or how much time does it take to check a model number or a plan?
Some idiot has put the wrong kitchen sink in our kitchen bench top, I’m hoping that it’s not a different shape to the one we are meant to have, because then we’ll have to wait few more weeks until they replace the bench top. I’m feeling a little deja vu. Ohh that’s right, the wankers cut round holes in our vanity bench tops – for our SQUARE basins!
Another thing, why don’t we have a light out the front of our house? It appears they’ve missed that too!
All these mistakes have now put us behind schedule, now it’s costing us more money because we’re renting and paying mortgage. Half wits!
We’re getting close now, we still don’t have our 2nd hanging and shelving in our walk in robe, I’m a little disappointed with a few of the things that have gone wrong or been missed. I really don’t know if I would build with DH if I wasn’t working with them, but I guess it’s always ‘the better the devil you know’.
Here’s a shot I took this morning of the facade. I’m so glad I made the choices I did with the facade.
Here’s some more snaps of the progress.
Today is the 31st day of freedom for my liver and kidneys, my goal was to be off the grog for 7 weeks, but I gave myself a few days off on the final weekend.
Why 7 weeks? I’ve heard that it takes 28 days to 6 weeks to break a habit, I’m hoping that I will destroy my habit of drinking for the good.
I don’t want to turn into a born-again sober, I just want a clear mind to be successful and start and master my future businesses; it feels like they are coming to the surface everyday I’m off the piss. My mind is clearing, my memory is coming back, I’m starting to find more money in my bank, and I’m finding more time to do more things I like doing.
If I can make it through, which I know I will; I’ll be able to have a drink on the weekend and not go back to destroying myself every other day.
I also want to drop 10kgs, but that’s not the primary goal, that’s just gravy.
I also want to add that when it’s complete, it will be the longest ive gone without drinking since I turned 15.
My next challenge when this one is over, or possibly while it’s going, is to give up smoking, if I could do that for 7 weeks it would be the longest since I turned 13! What a waste of money!
Today I got a bill from Distinctive Homes saying that I need to pay my next progress payment!
The slab went down on the 27th of January, now the wall and roof frames are up! Stoked!
Ok, I finally got around to getting the photos off the camera, I’ve found a nice little lamp post to lean against to take the photos, so they’ll generally be in the same place each time – which is also on the edge of our block.
btw, I can’t get the gallery to work – so you’re stuck with the dull way it looks 
Even with all the wankers and distractions, I’m still feeling quite productive, I’m so far a head of my day; I had lunch at 11am just to keep my energy flowing into the afternoon.
Coffee; then back to trying to work out some DDoS Attacks, and some mail bombing!
My house is progressing nicely, finished the final builders interview yesterday – not often do you have one after the slab is already on the ground. Slab party this weekend!
Finally bought a real gaming console today, I got an xbox with modern warfare 2. Now I completely understand why gamers get fat and look stereotypical, ‘cos it is sooo fucking addictive! I lost 3 hours of my life tonight being in the most peaceful bliss I have felt in so long.
I can’t wait until I get Xbox live and start killing ‘real’ people!
Is it so bad that someone enjoys killing people but can’t let a bee drown when they water the plants? I don’t know if it says anything about the human race, but I’m sure it says something about the people I deal with each day.
On that note; kill ya later

I finally sent my Chinese photos to snapfish to get printed, along with my Kangaroo Island holiday photobook. The China holiday was in 2008 and KI in 2007!
I can’t think if it’s lazy or busy… we’ll go with busy.
