Feet Up

 

I have been trying to keep my feet up but do you know how hard that is with a 5 year old and a house guest?

Matt went back to work yesterday. The alarm went off in the morning and I really didn’t want him to go, so I ended up going with him to Scoresby to the warehouse for his work to pick up his van. After that we headed out to see a bloke that Matt works with and had a cuppa with him. I always find the work gossip so very interesting and really there is something cute and funny about two guys gossiping about work. We finally got back home just before my afternoon class started. I really hate parting ways 🙁  Matt packed his bags and I headed out to tafe. On the way home yesterday we had a talk about the idea of moving over to Tasmania, it could be very much on the cards. Matt work has landed a new wind farm to build and service there along with the other two wind farms on that they have in Tasmania.

I’m really starting to like this idea that we could be living in a different state. I like that it brings a new chapter but I dislike the fact of having to make and move away from friends. Friends aren’t something that I can easly make (trust me I have tryed). This does seem to have come at the wrong time, with us building the house and knowing my luck just as the house is built Matt will be offered a new role. But I guess this is all apart of life and what makes it more internesting.

I wouldn’t mind moving over to Mount Gambier in South Australia. That I know I would really enjoy. The wind farm is only 30 minutes drive away and my bestie is only 40 minutes away. That would be a dream come true and we could buy something on a bit of land and be able to stay out that way for a while.

 

Here is me kicking my feet up in Stanley, Tasmaina! What a beautiful little town it was. So coast like and so sleepy. Every house has a wood heater, and the locals love to eat fish 🙂 I was almost in Heaven.

 

We also heard yesterday that Vestas has the go a head for 110 turbines in WA. They have to be finished, built and working by the end of 2011. A move over that way could be interesting aswell. There is just so much and it’s hard to think of what could happen. Idealy I would just love to have somewhere to call home andd never move house. Have I hold you how much I really hate moving? But I’m not going to worry about it to much and in the end where we go or what happens will end up being right, even if at the time it doesn’t feel that way. Moving back to Melbourne opened some very interesting can of worms. I learned that I don’t like living with other people, and that other people weren’t keen living with me. It’s because I like a clean house. And I’m sorry that in the day I was bored and I did your washing, then I ironed it, and once you got home I cooked dinner, fed you and then cleaned up all the dishes while you all sat down on your asses and watched me. At least I know I can’t go back to that 😉 Sorry just a bit of a vent there.

I watched the New Moon trailer yesterday! I really can’t wait for the movie to come out and I don’t care if it’s like the book or not (but so far it seems to be) I’m just hanging to watch it. I have missed reading into the lifes of Bella and Edward. A friend showed me a link of some Fan fiction the other day. I was up all night reading it. I couldn’t bare to leave the computer and my eyes where just to busy reading, reading and more reading. For a moment I lost myself in the reading and I felt like I was there. I love when that happens 🙂 Now I just need to find a new book to read.

Only 3 sleeps to go till Matt is home, and then he is off to Taiwan for 6 weeks.

Tasmania is such a beautiful place. 🙂

RYN: Thanks for your sound advice, Kellie! It makes a lot of sense. 🙂 We’re hoping to live in the first house we buy for five years or more…but who knows, really! I guess it’s a little scarier because it’s the first time for us? Not necessarily our ‘dream home’ right away – although we may luck in – but somewhere to make some (more) memories. 🙂

RYN (again): I wasn’t so keen on going with a broken either, but friends of us recently bought their first home and absolutely raved about a particular broker (who’s situated less than a block from Matt’s office in the City), so we’re giving him a call to find out for ourselves. 😉

RYN: Will do! Definately a grey area with brokerage fees etc… :/ Hmmm, Matt’s bank account (and previous car loan) is through the Bendigo Bank – might check them out too, since he’s already a customer with credit history there…!
