So drove to Rockie with Sam and went to his sister's wedding which was amazing loved it besides a 'tuppawear party' in which felt really out of place..... I don't cook stews or pot roasts or knit or sew or any of those mundane tasks that old wifes do there were people there my age that did so yeah wished my fun loving girls were around to improve the party! So hair wasn't let down as mainly stress and Sam running around like a squirrel helping arrange his big sis' wedding! Might I add the boys had a great night that [View Full Entry]

Well I never knew shopping to furnish a house was soooooo expensive karen i feel your past trauma! And Cath its yet to come soon I guess! So just got a house and I'm renting obviously and had to fork out lots and lots of money on bed, fridge, washing machine, etc etc etc all those tedious things you have to get! Got everything in three days (that need anyway) and have a hobby to start today which is painting pictures to put up in house..... bought water paints and card and stuff so getting hopefully an alternative perspective on decorating....

C'est La Vie Oceania » Australia » Queensland » Longreach
Well after new years returned up to Darwin, with the nice truck driver that dropped me down there, to fetch car.... as you know Jess couldn't join me but we've kept in touch loads and I'm glad.... you girls would love her honestly! So drove my baby car all the way 1600kilometres in 24hours (stopping to swat some mozzies in my car and sleeping for about two hours). Got back to Mount Isa..... slept loads. Tried to find a job as I'd run out of money.... had option of working on a cattle farm in longreach or even with Sam so [View Full Entry]

Rockhampton Oceania » Australia » Queensland » Rockhampton
I know.... why not go from one side of australia, darwin, to the complete other side, rockhampton, for a month for New Years????? Mad welsh woman confuses even herself at times. So went with Sam to Rockhampton to experience in true aussie style what an australian does on new years with no backpackers just aussies exactly what i wanted...... New Years in a big dirt pit with lots of men in cowboy hats and country music and idiots jumping on big bulls and riding them around a pen for as long as their burly hands would allow them to put up [View Full Entry]

If I do this again please shoot me.... oh yeah I am. If can do a map will but will just explain first. Flight from Mt Isa at 8am. Got drunk night before got to airport fine everything intact. Aeroplane tiny enough space for twenty people had to bend over to go in... my seat right at back. Plane takes off and lands four times at different places only about 200ks away from each other every time lands gets worse and worse..... last time landed an old guy hit his head on ceiling quite heavily! And I had a hangover luckily [View Full Entry]
