• got bed delivered from IKEA

• friend left beach chairs which are going to get thrown
• I also got couple plastic chairs and adjustable tray thing to go over my lap fm kmart
• tv and white goods delivered fm Harvey Norman like 30ks away
• I picked up slate w borrowed trailer from Willunga, got it out of trailer myself somehow
• had huge hassle w heater. the one I wanted had dift price in dift areas ,so if bought in Melbourne say was like $600 cheaper and you are supposed to go to nearest place to buy. rang them,no stock plus wont install. so I got one and flue kit from place couple hours away for cheap and brought it home myself
• then first installer BS'd me then refused to install it as he was too scared; said it wasnt up to code(wrong)
• eventually got another installer ,but had like 6 months wait
• kitchen table and chairs I picked up from 90ks away
• coffee table and tv and coffee table same, from 30ks away
• and someone dropped lounge off but I had to unload it by myself lol

@EternalFlower and I got ceiling insulated as it wasnt, and got another split system for bedroom. and got ceiling fans in all(like 4) rooms lol well its 4 rms,and bathroom, laundry and toilet.Good size for 1 person,but room for a guest . Still have long list of things wanted to do, but moneyis running out. It's cosy.😊

@EternalFlower I am really glad you have some one doing the work who feels a better fit. DBT has good aspects.

@TAB sounds like you are doing a great job of making a classy home. Gezellig…. Is the Dutch word that comes to mind…

going to watch a show with my son and have dinner

@Appleblossom what tv do u watch?

i saw this picture of a girl bedroom on substack - the idea being that feminine bedrooms are all trinkets and cute things layered on top of each other with no holding back - and why that stops when people becoe adults or live with a male or any person who maybe doesn't like it as much.

looks fun and nostalgic

Oh @EternalFlower I am not a big tv watcher. I studied novel and film at uni, and just too fussy, now, to be bothered with a lot of stuff floating around. I lean more SBS and ABC, like a bit of scandi noir, the odd Brit sitcom, very rarely anything Hollywood, would prefer more Nollywood, ie recent film out of Nigeria. Love Australian cinema, it helps us recover from a lot of the cultural cringe we endured back in…the day. I only watch every few months, except when my son wants to watch. He has fabulous taste, researches well, and knows my taste. Lately we are watching I, Claudius. Closest American style I liked -Hidden Figures. Loved Robbie Hood… cos I could relate to a lot of the issues.
