The lady who lives in the house in front of us (to the right) always makes food that smells divine. Her food smell always shows up my food smell. And when Joseph smells her food, he always thinks that it it my food. Of course he is severely mistaken, and when dinner time rolls around he is always disappointed.

I'm a terrible housewife!!! *sob*

And thus begins my last weekend of freedom. Semester 1 starts Monday and I've looked through my study guides and I have a hell of a lot of reading to do ( Read more... )

Joseph and I have discovered (perhaps) why the rent here is so reasonable for such a nice place.  I mean, the house is in excellent condition, it's close to the city, we have fantastic city views......we have found that we are directly underneath a low altitude flight path. There are low flying planes flying overhead quite frequently. Like 747 jets ( Read more... )

Well obviously we're reconnected. Joseph found an ISP that a friend of his recommended, and I guess it seems to be ok. *shrug ( Read more... )

So I have net access (which allows me to go to LJ, *kills work*) so I guess this is just a quick update to say we have moved (yes that glorious day arrived) and we are now very nicely settled in to our new home ( Read more... )

Only 5 more days to go. It's the end of an era, really. The most horrible era to have taken place.

We won't have internet until we connect up at our new house - this account is Declan's and he's going to cancel it. And work won't let me access LJ due to internet policy stuff so I guess it's goodbye until we get internet at home. Which won't be for ( Read more... )

Just a quick note to advise to all that I picked up Lordi from mum's house tonight. For those who don't know, Lordi won the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest. And... never, in my years of following this contest (which have only been a few) would I have ever been compelled to buy an album containing the song of the winning entrant. Because it's all just ( Read more... )

As per the subject line, we are moving in one week and 5 days!!! I absolutely can't wait. Life here has been hell on wheels uh, kind of shitty at some parts. Plus! Mum will be 10 mins away, Bel and Adam 5 mins away and Moira 5 mins away and Leah 2 mins away... but Eli will still be stuck in Spring Hill, but it won't take long to get there. Maybe 10 ( Read more... )

So the removalist has been booked, we only need to book a carpet cleaner and then we're ready to get out. We could have just hired a truck and moved everything ourselves, but as we have a lot of heavy furniture, and as Joseph only has one large pulsating muscle, (otherwise he's a very skinny boy) it would be impossible.

Declan was over last night ( Read more... )

So, I've been back at work since Monday. I'm over the sickness, thankfully, it left as quickly as it came. Good.

It's been good to be back here, as I was getting bored with the holidays. The most exciting thing that happened was that we signed the lease on Monday for the townhouse at Greenslopes, we move in 31/1. Hooray.

Woe Story update: Dad, Karen ( Read more... )
