heat wave


hi everyone since Christmas  we have had some really hot weather 2 weeks ago it was as high as 45 they say it was the hottest day in 70 years it just our luck it happens the year we decided  to move here   we have not had much luck since we came here the house we are in we have had red backs and white tip spiders and now we have found a mouse I'm now just waiting for the snake to top it off
 last week we were told we could only get a$200.000 mortgage you are probably thinking that's alot but the only house that will buy is one that's falling down the average house price is $300.00-$360.000 this means that we will have to stay in this house for another few years our lease is up in march we now have to decide if we are staying in this house or move on but moving on could be a problem because we went and got the kids a dog   and alot of rentals don't allow pets so we might end up staying here  and on the same day Greg crashed the car into the garage wall and damaged the car that day we just wanted to go home we seem to be having alot of them days but when we have a bad day we take the kids to the beach and  that reminds us the reason we came here 
 i started my driving lessons on Saturday and i have drove for 2 and a half  so far just another 47 & half to go.
callum as starting to settle in at school now he has started playing cricket  at dinner times with a few of his class mates 
Megan as gone the opposite way she hates school and her behaviour at home is terrible we just don't know what to do with her 
Caitlin she started school and she loves it she is a pleasure to take to school she gets all her own stuff ready for school not like the others if i don't do it it doesn't get done 
Connor is out of nappies and he has started Aussie rules this week he loves it he got a free ball and water bottle he starts play group this Friday he can't wait for that
Greg has had stressful days at work because of the heat everybody is going mad so he is fun to live with at the moment 
and then there is me I'm just me plodding along trying to keep everybody happy  i suppose its true what they say the first 12 months you will hate it  in 2 weeks time my mum and dad and Greg's mum are coming over for 2 weeks so that's something to look forward to the only thing is Greg's works wont give him any time off when they come  anyway got to go  i will keep you updated
