It's been a while...

My apologies for my absence (does anyone still visit here anymore ?). Since re-discovering Facebook and having soooomany friends there, I kind-of forget about my blog, sorry.

So...what's been happening here ?

Well, for anyone who isn't already in the loop, we are in the process of moving house. Our house sold in 2 days, and settlement is set for 27 July, but I spoke to the conveyancor this morning and it looks as though we'll be able to bring it forward by about 3 weeks. We specifically asked for a long settlement (90 days) to give us plenty of time to pack and move.
Elliot has had the keys to his new house for a week or so and has moved most of his stuff, and I get the keys to my new place tomorrow. I haven't packed as much as I'd like to have done, but it doesn't matter...we'll get there eventually.
My new house is just around the corner - literally 500m away. One of my girlfriend's is going to move in with us, so the company and shared bills will be fabulous, and we're really looking forward to it.

Work is going well for me. I have been at Michael Hill for 3 months this coming Tuesday, and the time has flown ! I'm loving it :)

The kids are both well and happy. Kade doesn't really understand the whole moving thing, but he'll be fine. Elliot and I are getting along really well, so there isn't going to be much of a problem for Kade to adjust (I hope).

My landlord is letting me have a dog, so I have recently paid the deposit on a puppy. He is a Maltese X Shih Tzu and was born on May 6, so he wont be coming home for a few weeks yet. The poor little thing had a bit of an identity crisis for a few days as he was mistakenly identified as being a girl, and I had named him Lucy. Since discovering that he is actually a boy, he has been renamed Charlie. He's SUCH a cutie and I am soooo excited to meet him.




I have been saving my pennies since last year's tax return, so I have splashed out and bought myself a new bedroom suite. I've never had a new bed in my life, so I am very excited to have a whole matching suite ~ woo hoo ! It's not currently in stock so I won't get it for at least 4-6 weeks, but that's okay.

Anyway, I hope this finds everyone well...will try to post again soon, or else look me up on Facebook :)
