A Change is as Good as a Holiday

Today we got the news that our application to move to the Illawarra has been accepted. Being a new area the house is exceptionally new and has very few, if any flaws. Personally I am yet to see the place physically, but the raw emotion and excitement that has come from those that have leads me to believe I will be very happy with the move.

Now for some photography of the place.

The House

New Digs - Outside

Bathroom

Dining Room

Lounge

Kitchen

That is it folks. I am sure looking forward to getting into this place now across the Australia Day long weekend. We will though be doing the ocker thing on Australia Day and will be bludging the day away at the beach in anticipation of some fireworks. The days surrounding that Saturday though will be hectic.

I probably will be unable to blog on those days, so am now going to formulate some scheduled posts for the period. Rest assured it will become increasingly cheaper to advertise on my Entrecard for those of you interested.

    KiwiPulse, great to see you around.

    As for the trees there are a few very immature trees planted at the moment. The house is pretty much brand spanking new. As such over time they will grow and add to the beauty of the place.

    Also, on the garden front I will be moving my current crops down there and adding to them no doubt. As such they will also add some greenery to the place and beautify the yards.

    I will also be growing a Meyer Lemon in a pot down there. Why am I going to continue growing in pots I hear you ask?

    The reason is that this place is a rental that we may not be at for a long time. It could be short term, it may be long term, and it depends on the economy at this stage. Who knows where that is heading at his point. Thus, I am not ready to throw roots at this point as we do not know how long we will be there.

    If though we do decide to stay there for an extended term I shall be asking permission to plant some garden beds and break free of the pots. It will then be up to the landlord to decide if they agree with the plantations.

  12. Wow! The best changed in the whole world. True enough, it’s more like a Holiday dude! Congrats to you! I wonder what changes would come my way. Maybe, I’ll go change my old coin collection and change to something new to collect so that I can have a house as nice as yours. I bet yours is the best so far. Enjoy your stay and you will sure have a blast!
