well I got the job Ive been chasing since xmas.
I will be driving a stock truck for a different firm out in a smaller town (closer to my hunting grounds ) we couldnt find a house and were getting worried as travelling 40+ kms to work would have killed it this morning we picked up the paper and WOOHOO theres a house where we need one. I phoned and booked in, Wife and I went out for a look and came home with the keys. the rent is a bit more than where we have been for the last 12 years but it looks to be a heap better place for us all.
my boys school is only 100yrd down the street ,high school 1.2kms away, work 2kms tops, a bigger flat section it will be bliss to mow lawns that arent on 30 degree slope.
Life looks to be coming good for us.
