My First Home

ok here is some pics of my new home!!!! I am so proud i cant stop smiling. It is just beautiful.... I "found" it about a week ago when i was over at Tim's parents house browsing through the local paper - there was an open day on Sunday - We looked through twice just to make sure, made 3 offers in the end - they accepted the 3rd. I am not much good at waiting even though I hardly had to wait at all, but it was just all the tooing and frowing that went on. It was listed for Auction on Saturday 18th but we wanted to beat the auction - which we did. We signed papers on the Friday afternoon shook everyones hand, and then found out how many people we owe slabs of beer to for making this happen so quick!!!! We drove to Melbourne Friday afternoon planning everything we would like to do to the house, very little cosmetically (we just love it) but just our own little personal touch, my girlfriend Jeanette has lovingly offered to come shopping with me and help me spend my money to "personalise" the house - got to love friends who love to spend your money LOL. You will notice the spa in the outdoor area - unfortunatley that does not come with the house - but it is on my new wish list of things that i want.

Settlement is on the 28th of September so that doesnt leave us much time to arrange things and give notice at the house we currently have and pack our stuff - thankfully it is not that far away distance wise, so we wont have to pack perfectly and will be able to move things room by room really - Tim's dad has decided to arrange himself so that he is home on the Friday we take possesion so he can help move, i am going to try and get the day off work so i can move stuff, and Tim is on leave so we should be good - there will be my parents to help as well, but they own their own cleaning business so they will be busy at the old house cleaning and making it look pretty. My aim is to have the house done by Friday so i can sleep in the new one Friday night - something i think is very achieveable, i have moved a house 250km in a day and unpacked, so a few blockes will be nothing!!!

I am so excited.

cough cough cough....

You wouldnt believe it, i take some time off training as i was feeling exhausted and unable to do anything, but now it means that my body relaxed and i am sick!!! I have not felt this ordinary for quite some time.
I have the aches, sniffles and this cough that wont go away, i am rattling when i breathe and i feel like there is an elephant sitting on my chest. I have had this for about 3 days now and doesnt seem to be improving, most likely because i am still at work and not resting like i should be.
I smell like vicks - my new best friend - i have it on hankies so i can sniff it, on my chest and on the soles of my feet - someone told me that this works but i dont know but i will try anything at the moment.
I am planning on having a low key weekend and rest as much as i can - sleep, this is something that seems to be missing in my life at the moment i just cant seem to sleep no matter how tired i am - i dont know if that is because i am coughing or my mind is working overtime.

Well have a good weekend - i will try sleep

what a weekend

What a great weekend - This is my girlfriend Tia who came down to Robinvale for the night with Tim and i for the Robinvale bonanza.

It was a fantasic night - Tia (who is my very trusted hair dresser) and i had a few light drinks whilst she done my hair, then we had a few more light drinks as we were getting ready. Was great, we prepared snacks for everyone, most of which were healthy, none of which anyone realised were healthy - i think they were all too drunk. We were staying in the caravan park at Robinvale which was 20m from the function centre. I was sensible enough to drink some water as the night went on and i think that was the only thing that saved me in the end as i woke up the next day feeling great - everyone else was not. Tim thought he would spew at the smell of food and Tia is lucky to remember half of the night and was starting to wonder if she even went!!! LOL poor thing.

Tim and i won a luggage set on the night and i "won" some extra items that "fell" into the luggage set on the way out the door, i was surprised at how easy this was given that i was on 2 tables full of police officers. But i think they ended up with some extra items as well, We got given a wine glass as a gift - the boys got schooners. We have already decided that we are going again next year - i was so much fun, the band was fantastic. I got plenty of comments on how good i was looking and my beautiful dress... great for the ego.

I will have more pics comming when i get them organised.
