The latest from me!

Wow, what a day! I've been following the news headlines of what' s been going on over there in Washington. I like him! That is the new American President. He's cute and smart, can dance and I think really appeals to the international community. Maybe because he's not a typical black from the South, he can reach more people. Now we'll just have to wait and see whether he's able to fulfill his election promises. I don't know why I care so much, I'm barely American. I guess we are all affected ......and I was just so freakin' sick of hearing Bush's drawl!
One American comedian over here during the election last year questioned, "Obama? Obama? Ain't that they guy we're lookin' for?" Ha!

Well, Jay has been sick these last few days (poor baby?) so the last of our school holidays is almost gone. We've had a relaxing, looong holiday and I'm looking forward to school starting, just quietly ;)
The sisters are flying in at the end of the months as well as heaps of family from Adelaide and Melbourne. It's gonna be terrific to see everyone and slightly hectic accommodating everyone but we shall make it work!
At the same time Alan will be returning to school and Jay will be starting Kindy so yeah, it's gonna be interesting.

We bought a new car! Well a used car but new for us. I wasn't able to get my head around a manual and didn't have the patience so we upgraded to an automatic and I've since gotten in a lot of driving! It's a sexy shiraz red!

Hmmm, what else is new? It has been stinking hot these last few weeks. We've been utilizing Lynn's pool....thanks so much, Lynn! but otherwise our aircon is working overtime. We just got a refreshing rainfall that will help us sleep tonight!
