We have been at our new place in Blackforest for just over a week now and it's finally starting to feel like home even though it's really messy right now! (and probably will be for a while!) Im glad the cleaning up of the north adelaide place is all over now. Few things to note about the new place, our electric water system is quite small, so phil and i have had to take shorter showers, I found this out the hard way on the first day with having to take a cold shower in the morning! Our washing machine getting a good work out with us using it nearly every day! So much for the water restriction for SA! Got the air con all serviced ready for the long hot summer ahead and we did some DIY with the entertainment unit, had to reduce the size of that to fit it in under the stairs. Bit of work, but worth it in the end! It fits perfectly now.

Not long now and I finish up work, still hasn't really kicked in, but we're interviewing some newbies soon, so when I start training them, Im sure it will sink in that I will shortly be no longer working full time. My supervisor asks me daily (being a bit of a stirrer) if I had changed my mind, that I can still stay and work there...but I've made my decision and am going to stick with it. Difficult decision but very liberating. :P

Can't wait to go away with phil to NZ, will be quite fun and interesting to be there for a longer time and meet more ppl and see more things! Will be fun at the wedding too! :)
We might go to Melbourne for christmas hollies, my step dads family is having their Chrissy do at his and mum's house. If we go, we will drive there.. mmm 8 hours of butt numbing adventure! hehe! But it will be good to get around melbourne and see things easier, though it will be the holiday period and lots of things maybe closed. We'll see what happens.. Melbournes a pretty city and would be good to go with Phil there to see what he thinks.

anyway
ciao...
