I'm doing 36 things
We’ve finally moved into the new house and I’m trying to declutter and organise everything as we unpack. I figure we’re going to live in this house for the next 20 to 30 years, so if things don’t fit, they’re never going to. Already I’ve gotten rid of a whole skip of junk as well as 3 big garbage bags of things to give away. How therapeutic!

Get a house of at least 4 bedrooms that I can happily live in for the next 20 years (read all 3 entries…)
We’ve got a block chosen, a house design going, just need to firm up the inclusions details and we can sign the contract. It’s all going to happen!!
