I saw the house.

Finally! John's not keen on it but I don't mind it.
Someone made the comment that whoever picked the
colours must have been drunk at the time. I'll have
to take photo's and send them to him when I have
my pictures up and furniture in, so he can see what
I had pictured in my head at the time. I am rapped
in the colours. Still needs a lot of work to finish,
as in power, water, pumps, hot water cementing around
steps etc, but should all be done in the next week
hopefully.
It has been constant rain here and I am having trouble
sleeping as worried we are not going to be able to get
the removalist out there. At this stage if we don't
get much at Hodgson over the next few days it should
get through just... So I have everything I can crossed.
LOL
EVERYTHING!
The house is fairly spacey and our meager supply
of furniture is going to look pretty bare. I knew
I should have bought everything from Karumba.
John is pleased his motto is less is best, but
a dining room suite would be nice!
Anyway I'll try and get on again before I pack it
all up. Otherwise I will try and update it all
when I am in Rocky the week of the 16th.
Cheers,
Kristy

Update!

I know it's been a long time between blogs,
but we are in chaos here at the moment,
with constant torrential rain and trying to
pack and shift. The computer gets packed up
on Wednesday coming and then I won't have
connection to the internet for almost a month.
Withdrawels I know.......
We went to Darwin for xmas and had a few
days break. Caught up with friends we haven't
seen for about 11 years which was great.
One of them, Margaret cooked us a beutiful
xmas lunch. If you are reading this thanks
again Margaret. Better than the ham sandwiches
we were going to get.
John had about 4 days fishing and
I windowshopped with friends, which
was madness as you can imagine the
people in the shops at that time
of year.
My husband gave me a 1/2 day spa pass
for xmas which was beutiful.
I had a hydrobath and a full body
massage and a facial and a manicure
it was so nice, and I felt so spoilt.
Came back and packed the cars to head
out to Hodgson for a few days
but then couldn't go as the creeks
were all over. So more packing here!
