Tuesday morning

Tuesday morning

We’ve seen the house; nice blue kitchen.

Phone is on: 03 473 9419 is the number.

Power will be on this morning, once we meet the power guys there and get the key thingy removed; you put the key into the fixture on the power board and, providing you’ve loaded it with money down at the power company, you can use some of the power you’ve already paid for.

The school of ministry could learn a lot from Mo Mansill about presbytality.

All our stuff is still en route. The street outside is too steep for containers so they have to transfer it all to a truck and then bring it up. Should be there by lunchtime. We came back to Oamaru last night, only an hour and a half and much nicer than bunking down on the floor.

We’ve talked to schools, got Hannah enrolled at a lovely Montessori preschool close to the school of ministry...

Karen Nelson (one of the second year students) has been fantastic, took a day off work to welcome us. Much easier to organise phone and power with a phone. And power.

Weather looks better today, there were several cloudbursts yesterday so I was thankful we weren't shifting furniture.
Hopefully we will make more progress in setting up the house today. Lawns need mowing. At least there are roses. And a compost bin... and space for some broccoli plants...
