I am so happy, I got an email from Allison at the bank yesterday to tell me that our washer/dryer combo and dishwasher were ready to pick up form Armadale store so we went down to pick them up and I am currently washing/drying my first load as I type :D
Just in case I never explained about it, we got a home loan through Thrive when we were buying the house in November, because it was for a mortgage over $350,000 we were eligible for one of their rewards packages (Which have since been reduced to just the plasma TV bundles) but then the house fell through so we refinanced instead... which meant our mortgage total was under $350,000 so no more rewards package :(
Well, come February and we get a phone call form Thrive to say that because we were eligible and then missed out they wanted to give us a package anyway and we just had to pay for delivery. So, they got $400 and we waited for a new washer/dryer and a dishwasher...and we waited and waited and waited. Apparently the courier was jerking Harvey Norman in Sydney around so it was easier for them to organise it through our local store :D Which means, we have a FREE washer/dryer and dishwasher (Just have to pay for the dishwasher to be installed) AND we get our $400 back since we picked them up instead of having them delivered :D
So good to have a newly fitted out laundry and a new washer/dryer to match :D We are a bit confused by it though, it is saying the load to wash and dry will take 7 hours so I think I need to have a little play to make sure the settings are right! LOL
When we were at Harvey Norman I got all the invites printed so now I have to do the addresses and they are ready to post (And, of course you're in Fiona :P )
Definitely will have to check back more these days Fiona, I seem to have caught the blogging bug lately! LOL I have written more in the last 4 months than I did in the whole of 2007 and I am only 2 (Or one after this one) away from tying with 2006! LOL If only the things I am writing about were more interesting, then I would have an excuse to be here more :P
Haven't taken the finished product of the laundry yet, Steve is doing the Little Squirt tonight so there is water and toilet seats littering the floor... doesn't make for the best after shot! LOL
Oh, I added music to my blog too! I can't work out how to get it to Auto-Play but it is a Dolly Parton song so maybe it is only worth listing to if you're me anyway :P
Miss M is still sick and not sleeping so better get her sorted before I crash :D
