Well, we have finally moved to the country! It's not quiet what I expected as yet but the adventure has only just begun. The plan to have a place where we could grow our own vegies and have some animals is on hold till everything gets a little bit more settled - hence the "Chooks" part in the title of this blog.
We chose to rent for a little while until we rid ourselves of our house in Sydney. I'm working about 15 mins from home now - no longer a 45 minute drive to work and its a nice drive through the country side.
The girls have now settled into their schools and making friends and having fun. Thanks to the internet they can still keep in contact with their old friends without it costing me an arm and a leg.
Because we're renting I can't start any gardening, only maintaining what we rent - which was beautiful when we first moved in but needing some work again now, just cleaning up the leaves. It's a tropical garden with lots of frangapani's, hibiscus, palms and a very nice green lawn. Something I haven't seen in Sydney without a ridiculous water bill attached to it.
With just getting the computer back I haven't been on very much but going back to some of my forum's to see whats been happening. I've been a member of Freecycle for sometime but it doesn't look like there's much up here - do I start one?? I'm trying to be careful not to put my hand up for too much at the moment and just enjoy life for a while.
Well - I think that's all for now
