New Home

We have found a house to move into. It is in an area called Kenmore and is about 10km from Brisbane CBD. It has 3 bedrooms upstairs and downstairs has quite a big living area that will fit our furniture – with a small study area. There is a small plunge pool at the front and a small garden at the back. I say the work small often - 'cos that's what it is. We are going to be very busy the first week of January as we should get the keys on the 5th, container delivery with all our belongings from the UK is the 7th and we leave for a holiday in South Africa on the 8th. At the same time we need to vacate the place we are in at the moment and have it spick-and-span with carpets cleaned before we leave on the 8th. Oh and at some point we also need to get a fridge and washing machine too.
I went for a job interview today Friday for a Project Manager role. I think it went ok – first interview, so an experience if nothing else. Should have some feedback before the end of the year on that one. Guy and I have also been put forward (after 5 pages of writing and an hour interview by the agent) for a portfolio manager role. That one sounds like a nice challenging role – they are only interviewing for that one at the end of January. Government job selection is a very slow and arduous process – for comparison the other position went from application to interview in under 2 weeks.
Abi is growing by leaps and bounds – she is such a character. The other night, guy was braaiing some meat using a pair of tongs. Abi went to the kitchen drawer and got another pair and went outside to help Dad – she did an excellent job!
