Well it’s a month today and the Essam tribe will be driving out of Wagga and heading towards Canberra.  We managed to get a house during the week. It’s a 3 bedroom private rental place in McKellar. The Landlord seems very nice and it’s good not to be dealing with Real Estate Agents! We have seen inside the place and it’s very, very nice! So have a good job, a good place to live and Laura is enrolled back at her old High School!  As they say on Channel Ten…………..Life’s Good!

Just have to decide which phone, interent, electricity, gas and health care provider now!

This week was another busy one at work!  It’s hard to wind down when there is so much happening and not enough staff to pass the jobs to!  Oh well, they will have to learn to live without me in a few weeks!

Laura is off at an AFS Camp this weekend. She didnt get  the Scholarship for France next year, but she still wants to be involved and will see in 2009 what else is available!

Petrol is still the same price in Wagga!  $1.58.9 a litre!  Least it’s stable at the moment!

We went and saw “Mongol” last weekend. It tells the story of Genghis Khan in his younger days, so of course it’s very graphic. But the scenery is fantastic.  Interesting film!
