The weather up here is so hot and so humid. There isn’t a breath of wind, just a small breeze would be nice. We just got our power bill in $1200.00 and that’s for 3 months and we have gas hot water and cooking. The house we are in is so hot, there is no insulation in the tin roof or in the walls. We have two big air cons that we own, we put one in the kitchen window and one in our bedroom, but the one in the kitchen does nothing at all and we roast. They are the biggest ones that you can get. So, our lease comes up in March and we are looking for another house that is a bit cooler and smaller. We are trying to save for a deposit for our own place, we miss out on the first home buyers grant because we bought a house previous to the grant existing.
Any way! We had a really big supprise... You could have knocked me over with a stick. We were home because we were looking after a friends two kids. They were out on the trampoline playing with the hose and Drew came running in and said that there was a man looking over the fence and he looked like Opa. We said “I don’t think so” but Justin thought he would have a look cause we thought the kids may have squirted the neighbour with the hose. We oped the door and were literally floored. I went into shock and Justin cried. But the weirdest thing was, about 4mins after they walked in the door the phone rung and it was the Mum of the kids saying that the first aid course she was doing ended early and that they wouldn’t need us to watch the kids the next day. Wow, when Karma happens it happens all at once. We had a great time with them and it was over all to soon and they were gone. It was great to see them and seeing how much weight Marina had lost was pretty inspirational. I was 2 days off my second weigh in, in this group of five of us who meet each Monday. That week, my first whole week I lost 300g and last week, I lost 600g. It hasn’t been much, but I have lost and not put on…. But, it is a small difference that I think that if I hadn’t peed before hand, I may not have lost at all. These small amounts play with your head. I’m a comfort eater and have been feeling pretty low of late, the let down after Marina and Corrie left, has had me eating chocolate… But… I have been having tiny Easter eggs so, instead of devouring a block of chocolate I have been having one or two eggs instead.
Any way, that’s me for now, keep smiling

PS. This is the waterhole that we go swimming in. We bought Marina & Corrie their the day that they had to go. It is so beautiful.
