Houses

Gosh just looked at the date and realised haven't posted anything here for ages.Well what a busy start to the year . Settling in nicely at work now and in to a bit of a rhythm getting to know new kids and new names and am happy to say that things are working out fine. Kasey,Jeremy,Nat and Anabel moved to a new house thank goodness we were worried that the old one would cave in on them (termites) so they are in a nice place now at Carindale.
Tom and Luke are no longer going to do Qld Youth Orchestra so now instead we go on Wed nights to Windsor Brass which they love so hump day is really that now most weeks we get home at 11.00 or later oh well.
The upside is that I get to spend my time at Kases hanging out with Anabel and the gang. She is in to nursery rhymes and songs these days so she loves it if you sing to her and with her and she is loving her new house with a big verandah to play on.
The biggest news is that we have been house hunting . We have to move from here by the 18th of May so we decided to try and buy and at least it would be ours. We have looked at lots and lots of houses some better than others and finally found one that we love and has everything that we want of course there is lots of work to be done inside(mostly cosmetic) but we plan to be there for a very long time. We signed the contracts yesterday so now as long as the bank comes to the party we will be moving in about 5 weeks. Got it for 12000 less than the asking price and for a house in that range (and god knows we've seen a few ) its huge weatherboard covered in fantastic plastic(siding so no painting) 4 bed massive kitchen seperate dining and we will make it ours as we go along a room at a time. Fingers and toes crossed!!!!!!!!

Yeahhhhhhhhhh...about time!!!!!! I was so happy to get your excited phone call on Friday afternoon..you deserve it.
There will be sleepless nights ahead worrying about the what ifs..but just think back to what we went through trying to get ours and dealing with the nutter agent(who was soon after run out of town)lol... we would cry with worry..it will be ok.
Totally thrilled for you and can't wait to see inside it...I know that house well, although it has been a lot of years since I have been anywhere near it.
