Well, the last 6 weeks of stress and form filling should culminate today in the settlement on our new home.
I know it should be a relatively straight forward process but it’ll still be really great to finally get the call telling us that we now own our own bricks and mortar here in Western Australia.
Since arriving here in Perth in November last year we’ve lived in Mindarie keys, the suburb of North Perth and Finally our current spot here in Kinross.
All have been pretty nice houses but because we were renting these properties you never could really call them home.
Our new home in Quinns Rocks represents a real start to our new life down under and the minute we get the key it’ll be time to celebrate.
It’ll also be nice to finally relax a little and start to enjoy life in Australia without worrying to much about the next big project.
Well, I say relax but we’ll see how we get on, what with a three week old baby in tow!
We also will need to start planning our new cat release strategy.
Hmmm, perhaps not so relaxing after all
