Pre-Christmas time in Brissie

It is only three days to Christmas and I am sitting here sweating away between two fans and cannot believe that it is indeed the time of Silent night and Rudolph the rednosed reindeer.

Only yesterday I went to Surfers Paradise beach with Craig's niece Joanna and we had a lovely day jumping through waves and admiring the surf dudes. Very cool! I wish I was able to surf and be comfortable in that scene but.... somehow my attempts in Devon did not quite pay off? I will keep working on it as you can see.

On the homefront we are finally making some progress on the renovation project and have finalised the design of our future IKEA kitchen and work will start early January. I cannot wait! As soon as the kitchen is done we will retile the house and then everything else will fall into place. Our belongings from England are still in Quarantine in Sydney harbour and we are waiting for them to get transported to Brisbane and I am hoping we can pick them up at the end of next week. I cannot wait to be reunited with my things, I have had enough of living out of a suitcase! It has been over 12 months now and I want want want a wardrobe full my clothes again and a fully equipped kitchen! Oh... it will be so nice!
