    Week 9: The rendering is mostly finished! It’s nice to be past the “omg we wrecked our house” demolition phase and starting to see what the finished product will be like. The TV mount arrived today, so still working on the new living room wall. The kitchen tiled floor is also being adjusted to meet flush with the new wooden one in the dining room. And the tub is in! A tub I can actually extend my legs in! 😍 And now we find ourselves at critical juncture that has detailed many a Grand Design – ordering the windows. Wish us luck…. 🪟🤞#renovation

    The home renovation continues, but we’re starting to collect some new pieces to decorate. I was thrilled to nab one of these deconstructed GameBoy pieces from @xreart_official!

    I’m really proud of my brother Anthony and SIL Kara! They’re realising a dream – opening a coffee shop in Lagrange, helping to revitalise the town center and putting money back into the local economy. Can’t wait to test out their coffee personally next month! ❤️🙌


    If you want to watch my AWS Sydney Summit Super Session from a few weeks back, it’s up on the On Demand site now! This is definitely one of my AWS career highlights. ❤️

    Me: I’m leaning towards these new frames… but they remind me of someone?

    Rodd:

    I still ordered them. 😂

    We had a public holiday in Australia yesterday (Thursday), which means I get to post my favourite stupid German meme! 😂

    (Germans call a day between a public holiday and a weekend – where you can take it as personal leave to have a longer break – a “Brückentag”, or “bridge” day.)
