Two weeks later and we’re in the new place. No real hitches except the car having an absolute fit the day of moving but it was totally fixable. Stupid oil gages!! I am happy to be rid of the old house but I dread every time I go downstairs and see the piles of boxes and stuff that I have to somehow fit upstairs neatly and tidily. I can see some serious culling going on in the next few weeks. At least once I get it all sorted I can store any unwanted crap that I don’t necessarily want to get rid of downstairs.

I have decided I might get rid of my Twitter account. I am not using it. I installed the app on my mobile and never used it. I tend to go straight to Facebook. Anyone that I have on twitter has my email, facebook or phone number anyway. It’s just another useless account for me to track. Actually, while I am thinking about it I might go and do that now.

I am absolutely buggered and we haven’t even started moving the furniture.. LOL Looking for a place really takes the energy out of you. I am glad to have found somewhere. If we hadn’t found a place by Monday we would have to have started to apply for places that were not-so-nice as time was running out.

It’s a nice double story place with living quarters upstairs and plenty of storage, two car garages and even a little room underneath. Will be great to have parties and barbecues in. I am even considering having our wedding reception at home as there’s plenty of room out the back and downstairs.

I was really looking forward to going back to work in a couple of week until we realised that I can’t. If I did do work before the end of the financial year (31 July) then my ENTIRE 12 months of youth allowance becomes taxable income and I’d end up having to repay the tax department thousands of dollars. We decided I need to wait until after the first of July. Why the hell your youth allowance turns into taxable income once you start earning from work I don’t know. It’s a very fucked up system we have.

In saying that I have some spare time on my hands, so between my centrelink responsibilities I plan on getting a good garden started with chillies, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber etc. I also want to get my sewing room set up so I can start making things. The sooner I can get that done the sooner I can start selling my creations, doing clothing alterations etc.

Aanyway, I should keep moving along, things to pack, forms to fill out (stupid entry condition report), stuff to do etc.

It’s been a while since my last update on anything really, except facebook. I haven’t been feeling very social at all which isn’t like me.

Life wise… not too much has happened which is nice. Uni has gone back, I am enjoying my subjects so far and really look forward to my Typography2 assignment: a Magazine. It will absorb a lot of my time but will be worth it. As usual, money is tight but one gets that when study doesn’t allow you to work. I tell people that you get used to not having money but some days it does get to me, especially when I want some new jeans and I have to budget in for a few months in order to have the money to get them.

In sad news I lost a family member to cancer. I will not be able to make the funeral but the family know I send my love.

Creatively I have done squat all over the past three months. I have been feeling down and haven’t had the urge to be arty. I am trying to bring my mood back up so fingers crossed, you might see me pump something creative like out soon.

Anyway, I am heading off to play Pharaoh for a few hours.

My dream diary page is finally up and running. The link is right at the top of the window. Definitely check it out. Soo worth the read and giggle.

So, been a while since I updated, I know, I have just been so busy with everything I haven’t had the chance nor felt like writing.

My old phone was killing me, it was being a bitch by locking up all the time, loosing range in the middle of phone calls and doing all sorts of weird things so I got myself a new and shiny iPhone.

My Old Phone

My New Phone

I absolutely love my new iPhone, wouldn’t trade it for anything.  It’s a phone, camera, mp3 player, hand held games device, note taker, sound recorder and mobile internet device.

Being February now I have almost got my Uni timetabling sorted and await it’s start in the last week of this month.  I do hope it goes smoothly, I don’t need another hassle on my hands.  I think we spent more of January fighting with companies over the phone about bill stuff ups, account stuff ups and other matters than anything else.

Ugh, I still don’t feel like typing or talking much.  Until next time peoples.
