And the differences continue

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

We’ve officially begun our house search in Australia.  And boy is it different than our home buying search in the US.  First, I’ll start with the positives.
1.  We may be able to afford a house in Australia solely on 1 income!  In the US, MJ and I had to both work full-time to be able [...]

So lost

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

On Monday, I decided to take a drive to an area of town I have never driven in before and wasn’t exactly sure how to navigate myself through the streets.  I told myself that the town isn’t so big and I have a GPS so what’s the big deal.  I must have been feeling very [...]

Go, USA!

I’m not one for sports.  I’m too much of a girl…not a girly girl but just a plain Jane who’s just not into sports so I never really watched the Olympics before, until now.  After all these years of not watching the Olympics, I’m truly surprised that I’ve watched a fair bit of it but [...]

MIA

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Well in case you haven’t noticed, I haven’t been on in a few days.  I haven’t been able to view my favorite forums and blogs for awhile.  And I’m going through withdrawal.
LJ has been sick.  High fevers, vomiting, whiney, achy, and so forth.  I have had my 3rd back muscle spasm in 3 weeks and [...]

Eating out sucks…

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

at least in Australia.  And let me tell you why.
When MJ and I decide to eat out at a restaurant, it’s usually a spur of the moment.  Well not totally spur of the moment.  Basically if by 3:30pm, I don’t have any idea of what to cook we decide to eat out.  Our dinner time [...]

Here ya go, oops nevermind

Friday, August 8th, 2008

We got our car back again yesterday!  The final bill was $1500.  Now I know that the mechanic pulled the $1500 out of his ass because supposedly it was costing that much because he needed to schedule the car for a whole day job and not little by little job, so that day was supposedly [...]

Looking for a house

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

I’m in desperate need for a cubby house. 
LJ cries whenever he sees one.  His cousin has one and he loves it.  And we were in Kmart not too long ago and there was a display cubby house which was really flimsy and small (he had to duck his head to be in it) and [...]

Stuck at home…again

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

In the past couple of weeks, I’ve become more courageous and I have been driving myself places….ON MY OWN!  Familiar places, such as the post office, Kmart, supermarket, park, and places of the sort.  I won’t go somewhere I’m not entirely too sure how to get to (even though we do have a GPS but [...]

I need a slice

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

Oh I have been craving pizza.  Not just any pizza.  A real New York slice of pizza with it’s floppy dough base, crunchy crust, terrific tomato sauce, and thick melted mozzarella.
There are plenty of pizza places around here but they all have that generic Pizza Hut base and taste.  I need a real slice of [...]

My hubby is a revhead

Monday, August 4th, 2008

MJ loves cars. I mean, he LOVES cars. He loves them so much he knows a lot of useless crap about them. I’ll be fair…sometimes, just sometimes, the crap isn’t completely useless and he does know his way around a car and he’s able to play mechanic at times. Today we [...]
