Birfday in the office


Here is Marie Smith whose mum Michelle, my boss, had another birthday! And in case you were wondering, Geoff below is her grandad, and yes, Michelle is his daughter. And Michelle's husband Rob is a fellow Lion at the City of Devonport Lions club.

Pride of Harwood


Check this out, next to the TransTrain/AusTrip office where I work we have a u-beaut vegie patch! Good-on-ya Geoff for doing a grand job at growing vegies here, a great surprise.

Weekend with my bruddah!


Frank came over from Canberra to look at houses with me... Cindy helped make us sushi for dinner!
The big question is do we find something that is a) a good investment, b) affordable for me to live in now, or c) affordable with housemate now and potentially perfect for later, and d) should we care about resale value if we find some place I would really like to live?

These questions arose after we discovered that if I rent the property from Frank at lowish rent the house would give me no option to have someone share, the option to live in a beautiful place where I could comfortably have a person share for now and pay about the same as a cheap place (but have the option to one day afford it on my own), or find something we can develop which may make me less comfy now but give me potential free rent later on and perhaps even be a good investment... I like option c.

Jo visiting from Canberra


Jo, visiting me from Canberra is not game to try my food, so Molly Malones was chartered with the cooking... Here she is pictured chatting up repairmen about her heater problems at home, over a pint of Guinness.

Edible food today!


OK, still zero for presentation... and too bad the spinach was raw (turned the wrong stove on), but the champagne helped!

New Commute

New Commute is OK, I drive to Don and then ride my bike in on the river/beach tracks. Just what I need everyday, only 9kms or so each way, and it is mostly downwind and down hill:

In the morning I reckon it is an easy 30 minutes to work:




In the afternoon I ride home (via the pharmacist today) and take it very easy. Ran into a mate today and stopped for the loo... really is a very pleasant ride:


Dinner time...


Amazing how good food can really be ruined.... With the flavour gone so is the apetite. These are actually my left-overs as this was gross. I know I can do better.

No fixed address


One of the worst days in my life... I am leaving home. K is staying with the Puss, I am seeking shelter with a friend. We have separated :(This hurts a lot still. Will take some time to find my feet again. K and I decided to call it a day, but will remain best of friends, just not live together anymore. Why do us humans have to go through thse things...


Unloading at Cindy's house which needs a house-sitter for a while. I will be in Turner's Beach here for a while till I find something a bit more permanent, get my Disability Support back and sort out the bank accounts etc.

voyeurism


The sexy back-end of work... Odd little building, but the land is great. Would make a perfect development project here! In the mean time I work inside where they look after me well even though I cause trouble...
