What a chaotic past six weeks! I realise no one brought this on but myself and I have totally enjoyed it thus far but where is the light at the end of the tunnel?! I fear today's entry may be a somewhat random string so advance apologies... So, the wedding is over, Abbe - you were my hero, our friends/family have flown home, we have the car and today we move to Rivervale. It's an exciting step as we're finally out from under 'the parental's' feet. Leigh's brother, Darren, has a beautiful flat in which he is so kindly letting us reside in for, well, however long it takes to find a place of our own. I tell you, it's so hard when all the elements of a country move are so dependant on each other. Can't have a car until someone can lend us one to go looking, can't get a place of our own until we a) know where we'll be working and b) until someone gives us jobs... It just goes on really. At times, it all just makes you want to go back bed but deep down you know how unproductive that would be and you serge on! Such is life.
The theme of the week will most certainly be 'carpe diem'. We must go out there and complete the job search. Leigh is deciding between three and I have a couple of second round interviews for some interesting roles. It'd most certainly be nice to begin searching for a place of our own too. We're particuarily keen on the Mount Hawthorn area after visiting our dear friends, Phil & Alan (pictured), for lunch this past Saturday, so we'll see how that pans out. On a more personal note, absent friends, all this is much tougher without you. Come back soon, ok? Either that, or send me some power vibes sista's! I'm going to need them.
